About Me
Sameera's Little Stars
Spaces available from Jan2025
Hello,
I m Sameera, an Ofsted registered childminder in Uxbridge. My First Aid certificate and DBS are up to date, and I follow the EYFS Development Matters curriculum guidance. You can rest assured that your child will be in safe hands whilst in my care, and their development needs will be attended too.
I choose to become a child minder because I find it fulfilling to work with children. It also allows me to utilise the skills I acquired, raising three children of my own. All the resources required to keep children entertained and mentally nourished, such as toys & educational tools, are present in my home. These resources are age appropriate and cater to children of different developmental stages.
My availability is flexible as I offer childminding service five days a week with flexible timings & days. I am also within easy reach as there are good transport links near my home for those commuting by public transport. Furthermore, the fees that I charge are affordable, and I am certain that you will be happy with the care received by your child.
My house is big and spacious .We have a lovely big garden as well with full equipped resources for kids .We have three pets : fish ,two budgies, and a cat, too.
I look forward to providing a friendly, nurturing, and welcoming environment for your child.
Recently, I had an inspection and was awarded as ' Good ' grading.
My Experience

Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Sameera Little Stars. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
When I first met Sameera, in November 2023, I explained that I would need childcare starting from 6.45 am and on her website it said that she is open from 7am to 7pm Mondays to Fridays. She agreed to this verbally.
Fast forward to February 2024, she had changed her hours of work without informing me and later threw a tantrum when I took baby to her at 6.40am. She complained that I woke up her children when I ran the door bell but how will you know I am outside when your phone is on do not disturb. I am a key worker and would not encourage key workers to use this childminder.

Thank you for reviewing my services.
There has been a misunderstanding.
You always said you needed childcare from 7am-5pm and the invoices I sent you, the timings on there are 7am-5pm too. And I charged you these timings. You came early on your first day and then said I’ll tell you if I come early again but never told me afterwards.
My communication is always strong from the beginning, and this can be seen in other parent reviews.
Thank you .
Our little girl has been with Sameera for 6+ months. My little girl was 11 months when she first went and she has enjoyed it ever since day 1. We can drop her off easily, Sameera sends us lots of photos, highlights any worries and helps me if I forgot to send my little girl with something she needed that day. She is truly wonderful and I trust Sameera with my life. I am so grateful we found Sameera. She knows babies and children well. I fully recommend her to any new parents.

The first childminder we ever used and my little one absolutely loves Sameera. She helped us develop our skills. She spends a lot of time preparing with toys and games every week to keep the little ones entertained and to teach them something new everyday. I cannot recommend her enough. Absolutely fabulous. 🥰❤️❤️❤️

My 1-year-old and 2 months boy, Dominic, spends his time every day and is very happy around Sameera... they do different fun and educational activities. She has a garden full of toys where Dominic likes to spend time playing with other children, I get daily pictures and videos of the children's activities and I can see how happy they all are. Sameera is understanding and patient person who loves children very much. I recommend it with great confidence.
