Sofia has looked after our daughter for the past year. She is an incredible childminder -she takes the children to do activities 3-4 mornings per week including the ballet and library which the children love.
More and most importantly however she really cares for the children she looks after and this is hugely evident - there are lots of special little touches which we adore, for example:
- she sends us a daily email and photos of what our little girl has been up to, this is delightful and also really puts you at ease that she is in good care
- she does something festive with the children for all special occassions including dressing them up or hosting parties or providing little treats eg. halloween, birthdays, easter, christmas
- we occassionally do events with the parents of the other children Sofia looks after and her own children which are always great fun
Our little girl has thrived and Sofia has ensured she continues to be outgoing, fun and confident. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Sofia and cannot recommend her highly enough.
Sofia is an amazing childminder. Right from our first visit to her lovely home, I knew she was exactly who I wanted to care for my daughter.
My daughter has blossomed since being in her care. From being an extremely fussy eater, she now eats a variety of foods and I can only put this down to Sofia's easy-going and patient approach, as well as her focus on good, home-cooked food and wellbeing. My daughter frequently tells me what is healthy and good for her and this is thanks to Sofia.
Friends of mine who have seen my daughter out with Sofia remark on what a great childminder she is and they and my family say I'm very lucky to have found her.
From strawberry picking to visiting a castle at Halloween and weekly visits to the museum and library (plus all the playgroups in between), the variety of activities Sofia does with the children is extensive and the diary and photos are perfect for keeping us up to date.
Sofia is very reliable, very friendly, very kind and very welcoming. I cannot sing her praises enough.
Sofia is looking after my 9 month old son for 4 days a week and he absolutely adores her and so do I!! She is a wonderful childminder and I couldn't ask for better. She takes my son to lots of different playgroups during the week so he interacts with many children. This has given him great confidence and as a result he is turning into a very social little boy, all thanks to Sofia.
He had only just begun on solid food when he started with Sofia and once again, thanks to her, he now has a very healthy and hearty appetite!
It's very clear that Sofia adores looking after children and I honestly can't recommend her highly enough. I thank my lucky stars that I found her!!

I was in a desperate need of a childcare, however I'm one of those paranoid mothers who are scared of leaving their children with strangers. In addition, my daughter doesn't tolerate people she doesn't know so it was a very difficult task to find a person we both would like and trust. And then after months of rejecting potential childminders I found Sofia (well, she found me :). Letting her take care of my baby girl was one of the best decisions in my life. My daughter truly adores her, loves spending time with her and I can see she's really happy when with Sofia. Not only Sofia cooks home made meals for her and provides snacks but she also sends me pictures of my little girl throughout the day. Also at the end of each day, I get a diary where I can read what my little one has been up to.
I know I can trust Sofia, and what's also very important - I can see she loves my girl as she does the rest of the children she looks after.
The reason for this review is that I know how hard it is to find that special person with whom you're going to leave your precious child. There's so many names on this website, but how do we know who's the one for us. Well, Sofia is THE ONE for me and my little girl and I can highly recommend her to anyone looking for a childcare.
