It is hard to over emphasise the extent to which Violeta has helped to nurture and grow our daughter whilst in her care from the age of 14 months to almost 3 years old. She has provided an exceptional level of support from day 1 beyond anything we could have imagined. She is patient, calm, kind, has a wealth of experience and recognises the individual needs of every child in her care, helps them to learn and thrive in a loving, safe and stimulating environment. Every week there is such a variety of activities, extensive daily outdoor play and trips to farms, museums and playgroups. We saw so much improvement with our daughter’s language and socialisation skills, and she makes everything so fun, the children love her. We felt total confidence in her capabilities to handle any situation, she is totally unflappable and has an impressive work ethic. She makes balanced homemade, nutritious meals and snacks every day and sends the loveliest WhatsApp photos throughout so we were kept updated at all times. Finding Violeta has been the greatest gift, honestly life-changing to have that peace of mind as a parent that your child is being cared for like your own, she is like family to us. I would recommend her to any parent without hesitation. You will not find a better childminder!

Violeta looked after our son since he was 11 months old and still looks after him now that he is almost 3.
Our son thrives in her care, and he loves going to her every day.
Violeta provides a safe, fun and stimulating environment for children offering a wide variety of activities, trips to the local playgroups, museums, farms and plenty of time outdoors in the local parks.
We appreciate her going above and beyond by sharing her knowledge and experience which helped us gain a different perspective and develop our own parenting styles.
Violeta is greatly valued and we are lucky to have her in our lives!

My daughter joined Violeta aged 15 months, and was happy from the first hour. I cannot recommend Violeta enough, she created a really loving and supportive home from home for our daughter, and she taught her so much. I trust Violeta to always to the absolute best for every child and to be able to handle any situation with super efficiency. Always really calm, and in control, and very fun, the children always have such a fun time. She really is a super star and we couldn't have asked for better care for our daughter for the year she was with her. She taught and ensured she continued her fantastic manners, how to play really well with other children, to eat such a wide variety of foods, (Violeta is a really great cook, all home cooked very nutritious meals), D learnt so many words. Our daughter always felt save and cared for, she really loves Violeta and will miss her. We feel very lucky to have had her. Cannot recommend more highly.

Violeta is a really lovely person. She's warm, kind, personable and professional. We immediately felt welcome and at ease with her. She's calm and relaxed and at the same time on top of everything related to ours son's care. We found it very easy to build a strong relationship with her and really work together on our son's care. She's always up for trying out new activities and exploring different things to do with the children. I appreciated a lot that they are having daily outdoor activities, going to parks, museums and socializing with other groups at the soft plays. Violeta is cooking nutritious meals for the children every day, and you get told all about what they did each day - including sleeps, nappies, food and activities. We received daily updates and pictures in our whats up group and that was the highlight of our day - we absolutely loved and treasured it! Violeta is such a wonderful soul, and we are glad our paths crossed and most importantly our son loves her too!
We would definitely recommend Violeta to any parent!

Thank you my dear
It's been a pleasure looking after Antonio 😊❤️
My two children aged 4 and 2 have both been coming to Violeta's for over a year and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She's kind and empathetic, thinks up lovely things to do with the children, and they spend lots of time outside in nearby Ruskin Park. Both of my children adore her and she is so sweet to them. She also makes lovely nutritious dinners, has lots of toys for learning, and is located very close to Denmark hill station. She has done school pick up for us as well. I think she's wonderful and would recommend her to anyone!

Thank you my dear
I love my little girls 😊❤️
I would like to reiterate my wife's comments. Violeta is the most wonderful woman. We have had no problems at all for five years. Wish we had known her for our first daughter. She really has changed our lives for the better. Children with her are happy, healthy and always full of laughter. No better childminder.

I really mean it when I say that Violeta is the most exceptional woman and childminder. My daughter has been with her from birth (she is about to be five) and I have not one complaint. For Violeta nothing is too much trouble, she has a wonderful energy and spirit, she has a massive heart and children always have a great time with her. They are able to feel really free while always having her watch over them. She really embraces the outdoors which I love, is very good at mixing children of different ages which is so important and makes them really good food. To say she is hard working is not enough. She is a tower house with the most wonderful heart and energy. Elena and I love Violeta. It is not just Elena she helps, she always has time to listen to my problems and worries! She is just the most brilliant woman and childminder. Her family are lovely too! ❤️

My twins have been in Violeta's care since they were only 7 months (they are now over 3 years old) and she has been a God send for us! As a first time mom I was very concerned about returning to work and leaving them so young in someone's care but she has been amazing ensuring they have all the love, attention and dedication for a successful development. She takes great pride in her work and always ensures the children have the best possible experience. She has a dedicated space for them in her home which is very welcoming with lots of toys that children absolutely love and she even takes the time to change the toys and decorations regularly to make it fresh and exciting for them. Every day the children embark on a new adventure with her as she takes them to various playclubs, parks, museums, activity workshops and even city farms! She is very focused on offering the best learning experience for them and has been very supportive helping them reach all the milestones (walking, speech, developing social skills). Most importantly she offers them lots of love, and meeting her you immediately know this is more than a profession for her and she genuinely cares about the children as any parent would do for their own. I am very pleased with the way the children developed in her care and she had been amazing throughout the journey in every possible way.

Violeta is a treasured part of our family’s inner support network; we trust her care, advice and knowledge of children implicitly and feel incredibly lucky to have our son in her company. The energy and love she puts into each day with the children is incredible! Each day is packed full of a huge variety of learning opportunities and activities; ranging from museums to soft play to picnics to farms. She offers the children delicious, healthy and homemade food and has been so supportive and helpful with our challenges with getting our son to eat solids. He made all of his major advances with eating thanks to her encouragement, knowledge and patience! She is so flexible with our work schedules and allowed us to drop our son off early on occasion, and is really accommodating of my pedantic obsession with nap timings which has been so much appreciated when I know she is simultaneously juggling the needs and routines of all of the other children in her care. Our son adores her and we credit her for lots of his positive development milestones and happy toddler memories. Her calm, positive and kind attitude cannot be underestimated, it really minimised all anxiety in going back to work knowing that our son was in such caring and capable hands.

Thank you for you kind works my dear 😊🙏🏻
My daughter has been with Violeta from 15 months old and is still currently with her. She is very kind, warm and proffessional and really cares about my daughter and treats her like one of her own. Her family are lovely and my daughter loves Bella!
Her home environment is very warm and safe and I have peace of mind knowing she will be looked after and cared for.
Violeta is a treasure and really helped with encouraging potty training as well as developing my daughters speech and language. Her attention to detail is amazing and will always offer support and advice. They do alot of activities including visiting parks and different play groups. My daughter has made a lovely group of friends with the other children Violeta cares for.
I really appreciate Violeta for all the things she does,from sending pictures of their activities, to mothers day and Christmas cards and gifts and also general artwork from pictures, paintings and pasta necklace jewelry.
I am so lucky to have found Violeta and will continue to use her services as my daughter is now of nursery age. If I could give her more than 5 stars I would! Highly recommend!!
