Ioana has been looking after my two daughters since March, and I couldn't be happier with the care and attention she provides. She is incredibly kind, attentive, and polite, always maintaining the highest level of professionalism. My children absolutely adore spending time with her, and she brings such warmth and joy to our home. Ioana goes above and beyond, always eager to help and ensure the girls are safe, happy, and engaged. We feel so fortunate to have found someone as amazing as Ioana—she truly is a wonderful part of our family.

Adrianna is an wonderful and lovely child full of energy and enthusiasm. It is a pleasure to spend time with her.
Iona has been an incredible find for our family, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. My 7-year-old son has high anxiety and special educational needs, so finding a childcare provider who could create a comfortable and supportive environment for him was a big concern. From the start, Iona has shown exceptional care, understanding, and patience with him. She quickly put him at ease, and he absolutely loves his time with her.
Iona is highly qualified, organised, and always punctual, which has given me great peace of mind. Her communication is excellent—she keeps us informed and involved, which makes such a difference. It’s clear she genuinely cares about his well-being and is committed to making each visit a positive experience. We are beyond pleased to have found someone as dedicated and compassionate as Iona, and we feel very fortunate to have her as part of our support network. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking exceptional childcare!
