Subha’s home has been the ideal childcare setting for my two year old. We chose Subha after having a poor experience with a nursery setting, and she provided everything we were looking for.
Her home is very well set up, clean and safe. We love that she has a purpose-built room in her garden where the children play, and the fact they can easily reach the garden and outside toys from there.
“Auntie” Subha is a warm, generous and thoughtful person. She is very organised, has always been accommodating to our requests, and is a pleasure to talk to when I drop off and collect my child. As well as giving feedback at the door, she sends text updates every evening to let me know the key details of my child’s day. I also love that she sends photos during the day of what he is doing.
Subha is helped by “Auntie” Mala and together they provide an enriching environment. My child has developed in the year he has been with Subha - learning colours, shapes, letters, numbers, songs, and mark making skills alongside developing friendships. He also loves his trips to local parks in Subha’s car.
We are sad that it is time for my child to leave Subha’s and go to the school nursery. As a family we hope to continue our friendship with Subha as we see her around the local area. We have felt so lucky to have found Subha and for our child to have spent a year in her care.

Hi
Thank you so much for your honesty and true review.
We will miss you all and will differently keep in touch. If you need any half terms holiday cover, you know I’m only a phone call away.
Thank you so much 😘
Our daugther has been at this setting for nearly 2 years (from age of 1). She has grown a lot in terms of learning and being creative. Its a nice setting with lot of activites for kids and outdoor play. For us a clean and good environment was a top priority and this easily passed. Subha is an experienced child minder and her team are equally competent and very friendly.

Our boys started with Subha in 2018 when they were 3 and 1. We liked the fact that she is able to accommodate a larger group of children whilst still providing a home from home environment. Subha has excellent facilities for looking after the children and also makes the effort to take the children out to local parks, library, soft play, etc. She is professional and organised and always friendly and approachable. We have really appreciated her flexibility such as her ability to accommodate different drop off and pick up routines when the boys started nursery and school. She quickly established an excellent rapport with our boys and so did the lovely Aunty Mala and her other helpers. The boys have always been very happy to go to play at Subha's. We have always had complete peace of mind that they are being well looked after when they are there and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her as a childminder.

Good morning Melanie
Than you so much and we will miss the boys but I know we will keep in touch.
Thank you
Subha is a great childminder.
For us the best thing about her was that once we had dropped off our son, we were completely at ease knowing he was in safe hands and well cared for.
She has been the driving force behind his potty training and we were very reliant on her knowledge and experience.
We would strongly recommend Subha and her team as our youngest son was a happy boy with her.
Subha was also brilliant with our oldest school aged son who always looked forward to going to hers during holidays and we are very much looking forward to carrying this on going forward.

Subha is simply brilliant. She is kind, professional and so supportive, her setting is a real home away from home. It’s a beautiful set up, with a studio in the back of an immaculately kept garden and house full of fantastic toys for the children to enjoy.
My daughter has been going to Subha since she was 13 months, Subha was pivotal in her walking, potty training (not one instance of nappy rash in the lead up to this) and early years development with speech and numbers in addition to socialising and reinforcing positive, kind and helpful values. It’s this immeasurable influence that sets her far apart from other settings. Subha and her lovely assistant Aunty Mala ensures the children are always engaged through arts & crafts, music, story time and local visits to community classes, soft play, parks and fruit picking in the summer. Mealtimes are also thoughtfully prepared with a healthy variety of fruits / vegetables.
As first time parents we visited a few nurseries and were left feeling a little defeated. On finding Subha, we knew our daughter would thrive with her from our initial visit and she has more than we could have imagined. So much so that despite moving to epsom our daughter (now 4) continued attending Subhas daycare until now as she is starting at a local school.
The cherry on the cake is Subha has a lovely way of brightening your day after a long day at work with her warm demeanour . She’s been such a wonderful support system to our family. Our daughter will continue to attend her setting during upcoming holidays (subject to availability) as her influence is simply one we don’t want to be without.

Thank you so so much, I’m going to miss you all too. Xx
"Auntie" Subha has been looking after our twin boys since our previous childminder moved out of the area in Spring 2020. When we first visited Subha's setting we were extremely impressed by her set up. She has a spacious, purpose built studio at the rear of the house and paved garden for the children to play in and everything is clean and modern.
Although Subha's excellent premises was a big plus for us, over time we've come to appreciate that the real gem was Subha herself! She's been an excellent communicator which has been all the more important during these Covid times and runs a very professional service. On a number of occasions she's been able to fit in extra days at short notice, which has been a great help.
Most importantly, she's been great with our boys. It's clear that they have a great rapport and they have always been happy to go to Subha's in the morning and are in a great mood when we pick them up. We've had them at other settings where they were not so happy and were reluctant to go. I think a big part of her success with our boys is the personal touch she gives, she's been fun and nurturing with them, but also knows how to set a good example and encourage good behaviour.
Our boys have now started nursery at primary school and we were very sad to have to take them out of Subha's setting. I think you'd be hard pushed to find a better childminder. Thank you Subha, you've been fantastic!!!

My daughter and son started at Auntie Subha’s setting in 2018 when they were 3 and 1. When you step inside Subha’s house you feel relaxed and welcomed by the organised layout: there’s a pleasant, large space in between the main house and a lovely back room as the nursery. Auntie Subha and her assistant Auntie Mala are brilliant aunties: the kids are taken to the park whenever the weather allows, to playgroups for arts and crafts, to soft play for action, summer holidays include fruit picking and paddling pool fun. Apart from the fun side, Subha makes sure the kids eat well, are clean (never a nappy rash) and when I was concerned about my eldest’s learning, Subha made sure she practiced phonics and numbers. You can also tell by how well her two lovely teenagers behave (my son adores Subha’s lad). Finally, I would like to add that parents are also in it for a treat: Auntie Subha occasionally makes her delicious curries for you to take home!!

I can’t fault Subha. Our son loves going there and always has so much fun. He talks excitedly about the things he’s done while there. It’s a caring and structured setting with Subha taking the utmost care of the little ones.
It almost feels like he’s with a member of the family when there and Subha goes above and beyond when looking after our little one and provides the support every child needs.

Subha and her assistant Mala were amazing. Our son has been with Subha since he was 7 months old. Like other first time parents, it was a really difficult choice for us to make to send our little baby but Subha made us feel very assured and comfortable and our son loved her and her place from day one. He has grown so much and became a lovely and bright young gentleman who learned sharing, even his favourite snacks and tidying up!
Unfortunately due to difficulty with commuting, we have decided to send our boy to a local nursery near home. This really is a sad decision and we really appreciate everything Subha did to our family and we will never forget. Thank you Subha and Mala, we will miss you! X

Our daughter has been under Subha's care for almost a year now and we couldn't be more pleased with the level of care she has recieved.
When I first visited Subha I knew instantly she was the childminder for us, her setting is second to none, she has a dedicated room and a lovely garden filled with lots of toys and learning materials for the children and you can really see how much the children enjoy it there. But in addition to this she also allows the kids to be a part of the home which was really important to me when finding a childminder.
Subha absolutely went out of her way to ensure our daughter settled in well initially and she is such a natural with all of the kids. It was a really hard time for me as I was returning to work and felt quite upset about having to leave my daughter but Subha really did make it so much easier. We receive regular pictures and updates on what our daughter is up to and at the end of the day she always makes time for a chat about anything she has been doing throughout the day. Our daughter is naturally quite shy in new surroundings but she now wakes up every morning and wants to be taken to Subha's house.
Subha has a great routine for the kids and is super organised, she takes them to the park regularly, to other childcare groups and to the farm. She plans activities for Mothers day, pancake day, Easter and Christmas you name it! I visited a few settings before deciding on Subha and in all honesty no one compared! Her home is also spotless, she really prides herself in having a clean, warm and loving environment for the kids
Subha has also been very accomodating when I've had to make last minute changes to our scheduled days, she is most definitely one of the most reliable childminders around! She has kept us well informed about any planned holidays - which she definitely doesn't take enough of.
We really can not thank Subha enough for everything she has done for our daughter over the past year, she has become a part of our daily lives and we really don't think we could have picked anyone better at all.
