Angels Academy Nursery and Pre-School's Reviews

Brilliant Childcare Setting

Our daughter has been attending Angels Academy since she was 18 months old and I cannot praise Sophie and Hany enough. Right from the start they put our mind at ease, with what we thought would be a hard time for our daughter who was particularly clingy.. Well to our amazement and with the support and love Sophie and Hany provide, this was not the case. She settled so well, and we were so thankful for the settling in sessions provided, there was no pressure and this was all done at our daughters pace. Our daughter enjoys her time so much when she is at Angels Academy. The activities and the set up they have is just simply brilliant. Our daughter is always learning something new and has come on leaps and bounds since joining. Sophie and Hany put so much love, thought and time into each activity they do with the children which suits each age range. The communication between them and us is 10/10 and we honestly could not ask for more from a childcare provider. The home cooked meals always smell delicious and it is lovely to know our daughter is having fresh home cooked meals each day. Sophie and Hany have become such a big part of our daughters life, she absolutely loves both of them. This is a wonderful home from home setting with nothing but love, happiness and fun each day. We could not recommend Angels Academy highly enough. Thank you for all you do for our daughter!

Highly Recommended !

Even thought our Daughter Emma, was there only for couple months for few hours a week, we believe that time spent in Angels Academy benefited her in many ways.

Great setup in Sophier and Hany’s house allowed her to enjoy the time spent away from us, and she was ever so happy after coming back home.

She was always excited about stroking their two beautiful cats, and having fun with other kids in safe and home-like environment.

Thank you for taking care of Emma,
we can’t be grateful enough !

Fantastic care

We have absolutely loved our experience with Sophie and Hany at Angel's academy. They have a beautiful set up for the children with a lovely garden and two summer houses. They provide well rounded and diverse meals. My son has really blossomed under their care. He loves attending their setting and it really is a very loving and caring environment.
If you are wondering whether to go with a childminder versus a nursery I highly recommend them as it is a much more focused and family setting. We knew from the moment we met and visited the setting that this was the place we wanted to send our son.
They are very good at communicating with the parents. We have more than loved and appreciated our experience with Hany and Sophie!

Couldn't wish for more!

When I first thought about putting my daughter in to childcare, I was leaning more towards a nursery rather than a childminder, purely because of how nurseries follow a curriculum. But as soon as I met Sophie and Hany and had a look around, I knew straight away that I was torn. My daughter Isabelle started doing taster sessions at about 11 months old, and as soon as she started these I instantly knew that it was a perfect choice for my family. How Sophie and Hany handled her, communicated with us, was exactly what we wanted and more to the point, needed. Especially as a first time parents. Now my daughter rushes in, I have to ask her to come back to me for a cuddle and a kiss and each time she comes home, she has learnt something new. Along with this, the lunches my daughter has are absolutely amazing! I honestly don't think I could have chosen better if I'd taken a year to do so!

A home from home

Since Lilliana started at Angels Academy I have felt so grateful to have found Sophie and Hany and think that they are an outstanding childminders. They are absolutely everything I've hoped for when looking for someone to care for my daughter 1.5 year ago.
They work in very close partnership with us as parents. Every day they provide key information about how Lilly has been, what she has done, how she has slept and eaten etc
They are always kind, calm and patient with the children so the little ones are happy, well behaved and know what’s expected of them.
They have created an atmosphere in which friendship and cooperation flourish amongst the children.
Sophie and Hany are very creative in their approach and I have been amazed at the variety of activities they provide for the children. Excellent balance of time outdoors and indoors. Let's not forget the beautiful newly build play house and gorgeous garden where the children spend sunny days playing and learning new skills.
I also very much appreciate the focus on healthy, nutritious, freshly made meals. Whenever I arrive to collect Lilly I can smell the delicious food that Sophie cooks for them every day.
We have already decided that Lilliana will stay with Angels Academy until she goes to school rather than going to nursery or pre-school because I have no doubt that she is receiving excellent provision in this area as well as gaining the enormous benefits of their kind and nurturing approach.
Sophie and Hany really care about our daughter and us as a family and this feeling is reciprocated. Hand on heart I cannot imagine anyone else looking after my child.

So if you are trying to find someone who will love, support, teach and help your child grow, Sophie and Hany are your perfect match . A home from home.

Exceptional childcare - highly recommended

Childcare choices are a big decision, and this was something I was initially quite anxious about when looking around for childminders and nurseries for my 18-month daughter. However, I knew straight away when I met Sophie and Hany that Angels Academy was the right decision. My daughter has absolutely thrived in their loving care - she really has had the best of both worlds, with Angels Academy being a small nursery-style setting within a homely family environment. The children are so lucky with the beautiful facilities: a gorgeous garden and summer house which is kitted out for the children to play in, and a designated playroom for the children within the home, all beautifully decorated and adorned with stimulating toys. Sophie and Hany’s experience as both carers and parents definitely shows - they know exactly what to do if my daughter is feeling unwell, or had an unsettled night, and this is a weight off my mind when leaving her to go to work. I love the exciting activities that they prepare for the children - my daughter often comes home with something creative that she’s made! I’m so thankful to Angels Academy for the exceptional care they’ve given to my daughter.

Fantastic!

Austin has absolutely loved attending Angels Academy. Sophie and Hany were amazing right from the start, very understanding and made the transition for me having to go back to work after 1 1/2 yrs of being a full time mummy alot easier. Im so glad we found them ! The house is immaculate, the food is all home made and the garden is amazing. Online diarys were also available so i knew how hed been and regular pics of what hes been up too were a lovely touch.

I have no doubt they have played a massive part in how our little boy has flourished - they are a very lovely family :)
I would definitely recommend Angels Academy for anyone looking for an excellent childminder

Highly recommended without a doubt!

Sophie & Hany are absolutely amazing! We found them after hunting high & low for a Childminder who could assist us during April holidays with very short notice.

Our son has loved going to Angel Academy and we will continue to use them when his usual school closes for 4 weeks throughout each year.

It's a daunting feeling for any parent leaving your child in someone else's care but Sophie & Hany have made us feel extremely comfortable with their care, education & love for our 15 month old boy and it says it all when you pick your son up who is happy & chatting away.

They have understood his dietary requirements (as he is dairy intolerant) and have catered for him with tasty meals that he has enjoyed.

I would and do highly recommend Angel Academy to any parent who is looking for child care.

Amazing!

Our daughter has spent two days a week at Angels Academy since she was 18 months old. They are simply wonderful. They don’t just mind your child - there’s a strong, well-thought-out educational element to the care they provide, with thoughtfully-designed activities and schedules planned out way in advance, and informed by Sophie’s several decades’ experience of working with this age group. Our daughter is very happy and settled there: she was shy when she first started, so Sophie had her in little groups to begin with, and focused on helping her form bonds with other children. Our daughter has grown in confidence and always talks about her friends at Sophie and Hany’s. She’s treated as an individual and given personalised care. The food S&H provide is really healthy and always smells delicious, and our daughter always eats really well there.

Excellent, Flexible Childcare

I'm so thankful I met Sophie & Hany, as after suddenly getting a job, I was in urgent need of childcare for my son, involving very long days and they provided the right fit. Upon first meeting them I was impressed by their warm and caring nature and felt very comfortable for my son to start at their setting. They are also very flexible in terms of hours and pickups/drop-offs, which as been invaluable to me. I'm also happy with the daily structure as it provides both free play and structured activities, which I think is the right balance.
I was a bit concerned how my son would handle the long days away from me, but due to the caring environment, he has done well and remains a typical, happy toddler.
My son and I will miss Sophie and Hany dearly as we are moving to be closer to my work and we truly appreciate the support they have provided us.
