My Summary
Registered Childminder In Upton Park E6
About Me
Hi Parents/Careers, my name is Aggie! Ofsted registered childminder, mother to a lovely 13 year old boy and an auntie to 2 adorable girls aged 2 and 8 (which i very often look after).
What could be more fun than being around children, talking to them, observing them play and getting involved in fun activities!
Children bring me joy, sense of belonging and seeing them achieving their milestones, however big or small, creates so much pride in my heart.
I'm nurturing, caring, patient, approachable and very responsible person, who believes every child is unique and every child deserves love, attention and care to be able to flourish. I also believe that Early Years is the most important time for children to thrive in the future.
My main focus is on reading with children and personal, social and emotional development. I believe that once those areas are instilled in children they will thrive with confidence even more.
With this in mind, I have set up my home nursery with playroom and garden area with plenty of different resources to enrich children's play. My smoke free but pet friendly home is very warm, comfortable, clean and safe space for everyone, where children can have fun, play, learn and relax.
My playroom is equipped with reading corner, extensive arts and crafts, and construction area, with other resources like: dolls, music equipment, role play, dress up, games, soft toys, mud kitchen and picnic area in the garden. I have planned activities, which include regular outings to playgrounds, parks, play centres, occasional museum trips and cultural celebrations activities, where children will be able to explore and learn.
As an enthusiastic gardener, music and dance lover i will provide children with plenty of opportunities to explore those areas through planned activities.
I'm also fluent in Polish language.
If you would like more information please do not hesitate to contact me so i can answer any other questions you may have.

I highly recommend this childminder! Communication has always been excellent, and they are very professional in their approach. They took the time to tailor the settling period specifically for my 8-month-old, ensuring that she felt comfortable and secure. Over time, they have built a wonderful bond with my child, and I can see how much she enjoys her time there. The childminder has also been fantastic in encouraging my daughter’s development, offering a supportive environment that helps her grow and learn. I feel confident and at ease knowing that my little one is in such capable and caring hands.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It’s truly a pleasure to work with your family, and I’m super grateful for the trust you've placed in me. I look forward to many more wonderful moments with your little one.
Warm Regards,
Aggie
We found Aggie’s Teeny Tiny Nursery via the Childcare.co.uk website, and were immediately impressed by the professionalism and level of detail on her profile page. We’d previously seen a few nurseries and childminders in the Plaistow area but weren’t convinced they were the right fit for us. We were looking for a home nursery/childminder that was local to us and that we could see building a long term relationship with. After a quick 15 minute call to get to know her, we went to her house to meet her.
Our 13 month old son gets upset around strangers but after 15 minutes of meeting, he warmed to Aggie and wanted to play with her. We could tell she is a natural with children and felt reassured that it was the right choice for us. Her lovely home in East Ham has several play areas with cosy den, play kitchen, table+chairs, reading areas and cot. Her garden has a cute paddling pool, sand pit for messy play, tricycle and many more.
At the time of writing this review, we’d done a 2 week settling in period and 5 weeks childcare. Most standard nurseries only do 1 week settling in so we’re so pleased ours was longer to ensure our son was used to being looked after by Aggie. We love seeing updates of what our son is up to, on the Tiney app, and have noticed a significant change in his behaviour, cognitive development and movement.
We’re so happy with our decision to go with Aggie, and are absolutely delighted with the care our son has received so far and can’t wait to see their relationship grow in the next few years. We would recommend Aggie to anyone looking for a more intimate nursery set up in East Ham.

Thank you so much Louisa for your wonderful review! I'm thrilled to hear that you are happy with the care I provide. It means the world to know that your son feels safe, happy, and engaged while he is with me and that he is making progress.
I genuinely enjoy watching him laugh, dance and develop, and it's an honor to be a part of your son’s journey and your family :)
Thanks again for your kind words and the trust you have given me to look after your beautiful baby boy :)
