My Summary
About Me
I provide children with the best start in life paired with a hint of spirituality. I thoroughly enjoy showing children that we are all spirit souls and that we are all worthy of love.
My home environment is backed by my beliefs and previous professional childcare experience of 10 years in supporting children's emotional well-being plus promoting high self esteem.
My Experience
Dipali Daycare provides outstanding childcare in a home from home environment, that sparks curiosity about spirituality by providing an enabling environment for children to explore, learn and develop great relationships with all of my families.
My home boasts a large separate play area with a big garden adjacent to the play room. Parts of the weekly routine include visits to the local mandirs/temples, the library, nature walks, morning yoga, kirtan time (spiritual hymn practice with instruments) and many more cultural activities linked to festivals.
The vision of the Daycare:
Happiness and genuine fun - incorporate child-led play
Engagement - being involved, responsive and interested
Respect - promoting a culture of tolerance, inclusions, diversity, equality, fairness & equal opportunities
Challenging - testing ourselves and others around us, trying new things

We came across some strange childminders in Crawley preciously but we absolutely love Dipali and are so grateful we found her - it is so important to find a right chilminder for your little one. She is genuinely loving and caring, not doing it only for the money, she genuinely loves children! She is absolutely lovely and a pro when it comes to safety as well!! Our little one loves her too and she's become a part of the family! Our little boy is truly thriving in her setting! It feels good to drop our boy off with her because we know he will be loved and cared for❤️ whilst we are at work! Another bonus point is that our boy gets to learn about another cultures and traditions- this is so good for his overall development! They always do lots of fun things and her nursery is huge and spotlessly clean and so well equipped with amazing toys. Love getting pictures showing him always smiling, looking confident and happy! Our boy will be staying with Dipali until he goes to school and we will definitely still stay in touch with her! Could not recommend Dipali enough, especially if you're a vegetarian like us!
