Marta is wonderful childminder. She welcomes us with a smile and knows well how to settle child if arrives upset.
Marta's childminding environment is rich of playful and creative activities and toys. My child loves playing with trains, however at Marta's house is willing to play with other toys as she provides good balance of activities. My child will happily follow Marta's encouragement to try new things. Outside environment is providing rich activities and my boy loves to be there. I am very pleased that Marta provides many activities which help my son understand the world around him: learning about caterpillar, learning about butterflies, learning about body parts, learning about different cultures.
At Marta's service there are more children and I am happy that Alan can form various relationships with other children. This gives him opportunity to learn social skills: sharing, turn taking, negotiating, communication skills and simply making friendships. I am also very happy that she takes children outside her house to different local events, such as: library sessions, playgroups, etc. This way my child can built confidence and self-esteem in relation to being around other people and children. Those events also let him to socialize with others, try new things and learn about world around him.
Marta follows the guidance 'Development Matters in the Early Years Foundation Stage' and she knows how to support children's developmental needs and pathway.
My son is always happy at being at Marta! Sometimes he doesn't want to go home! I always know how was his day, what he was doing, how was his mood and behaviour, how was his sleep and how much he ate.
Marta is a STAR!
Thank you for all you does for us!
Marta provides an exceptional childcare service and with no doubt, she is the best person to look after our son. From the very first meeting we had with Marta we have found out she is very reliable, professional, and trustworthy, and the environment she creates for children feels like a second home.
Marta is full of creative ideas when it comes to crafts and home-based activities and dedicates a lot of her attention to educating children. She also tries to spend an equal amount of time with them outdoors and takes children to the local playgrounds, parks or library. We receive reports from her with some photos and videos, Marta also keeps a record of what our son has eaten during the day, how he slept, etc., which I find super helpful.
I can’t recommend Marta enough, her skills and attitude are second to none.
Marta is an honest and warm person with calm approach to children, commited to her job and flexible when needed. She takes care of babies and children while educating them, trying to spend as much time as possible outdoors, exploring local library and sensory classes. I recommend Marta to every parent who's child struggles at the nursery. Our daughter settled with Marta in 2 week as oppose to trying nursery for months before with very poor results. Marta is natural, professional and very skilled Childminder full of energy and creative ideas. Highly recommend!
We can not recommend Marta enough! She is just amazing! My boy started to go to her when he was 10 months old and I was very anxious about giving him to any care as he was born in lockdown therefore not socialised at all. Marta made that transition very easy for us and I never had him crying. He loves being at Marta’s! In fact, when I’m coming to pick him up, he doesn’t want to leave. Marta have always some creative and educational activities for them. They going to lots of different walks, to the library, play groups, playgrounds and picnics. Marta has also very well equipped gardens for lots of outdoor activities. She offers healthy lunches and snacks, which my son adores! We have daily reports from Marta about what and when he eat, slept etc. she also sends daily pictures/short videos which we absolutely love as it is an amazing insight into his day. Marta is also flexible when needed, which can be very helpful. We absolutely adore Marta and can’t price her highly enough.
I cannot speak highly enough of Marta! She has looked after my daughter for the last 3 months and i have never had any doubt that my daughter is in the best possible hands. She has developed so much in these 3 short months which i have Marta to thank for.
I was so nervous leaving my child for the first time but seeing how happy she was with Marta and the other children put me at ease straight away, and i knew we had found the right minder for us.
My daughter gets so excited when she knows shes going to Marta's and greets her with a big smile every time. The children are taken out to the park, go on walks, have access to a safe and secure front and back garden. They also have a tonne of toys which Marta changes round regularly and sets up different activities for them to do throughout the day.
I love that Marta keeps in contact and sends photos regularly so i can see what my daughter has been up to. Along with this we receive a daily run down detailing everything we needed to know, what times she ate and slept etc.
I would honestly recommend Marta to anyone looking for a reliable childminder. You can see what a fantastic job she does from her own children, who are always exceptionally polite and sweet.
