Riz stepped in and helped us in our hour of need. She was brilliant as a childminder. We needed someone at short notice due to illness and she was there for us. She looked after my twin grandchildren from the age of 8 months to age 15 1/2 months.
What initially started out as a 6 week booking turned into a 7 1/2 month booking and therefore Riz saw many developmental changes in the twins. From weaning and crawling through to walking and some first words.
She was always very helpful and accommodating and the twins were always happy to be dropped off with her in the mornings.
I would recommend Riz as a childminder.

Riz looked after our 2 year old when we first moved to Epsom. We were so lucky to find her! Going there was just like a home from home and our son settled in very quickly. We received daily notes on what he got up to, including a range of activities and a varied menu. We had complete trust in Riz to keep him safe and happy - she's a very caring and warm person. We never had any issues. Our son had a great time there. The reason we stopped going was to move our son to a full-time, year-round, nursery.

My son was with Riz from 1-2.5 and he absolutely loved it. It was a really homey experience so he settled in so easily. My son was born in lockdown so wasn't used to new people or being away from home but he was immediately happy being at with Riz, she is very caring and great at handling all baby/toddler situations. My son who was a difficult eater at home to begin with was really happy to eat all her home cooked meals and napped well while he was there.
Forever grateful for providing such amazing care.

My son started going to Riz when he was 18 months and absolutely loved it. He would run in and always give Riz a big hug. It was so great for him at that age because he wasn’t ready for preschool, and it was a home environment where he could interact and play with other children. Riz does activities with them everyday and his speech and counting improved rapidly.
So, when my daughter turned 10 months and I had to return to work, Riz looked after her too. We were having trouble with her not sleeping through the night and Riz was so supportive, offering advice and helping us to play around with her nap schedule so we could get her back on track.
My two both love Riz and I highly recommend her.

Riz started looking after my daughter when she was 9 months old.
I have no words to describe how lovely Riz has been since the first day we met. My daughter loves being with Riz which I can see every morning when I drop her off by the way she reacts. She loves the environment and is always hugging Riz and walking around her.
Riz is amazing in keeping us informed about anything that happens with our daughter and she is also great in accommodating nap schedules, feeding and play time. She also provides home-made meals with dessert and breakfast.
We are moving now and we will miss Riz so much.
Thank you, Riz for taking care of our little one for these past 9 months. We are grateful for all your care and love!

Riz began looking after my almost 2 year old son earlier this year (2021).
It was always a short term plan, as he is due to start nursery at his older brothers school - which makes drop off/life a bit easier. However, we are so sad our time is ending!
I have nothing but positive things to say about Riz.
Her home is clean and inviting - the perfect set up for little ones to learn and play.
My son has severe allergies and she has been very accommodating - making sure the environment is safe for him.
She herself, exudes warmth and is clearly loved by the children. My son adores her!
She is professional and just lovely to work with.
Cannot recommend her services enough!
