Both our children are currently cared for by Rosarii and have been from the age of 9 months.
We couldn't imagine sending our children to anywhere other than Rosarii, right from the get go our children have loved going every week, so much so that they don't want to leave to go home. We've never had a teary drop off, they both go running in with excitement every time.
My eldest comes home every week excited to tell me about her day and the lovely things that they have learnt and various places that they have visited. I love that Rosarii takes them to places such as her allotment, library, woodland walks and toddler classes, there's never a boring day! As soon as we found out we were pregnant with number 2 we had to get her name down as did not want to risk not getting a place!! Rosarii is one of a kind and we cannot recommend her highly enough our children simply adore her.
Both our children were cared for by Rosarii, from the ages of 10 months.
We couldn’t be happier with the care they experienced. She provides a warm and loving environment, with ample opportunities for activities, learning, and playing. Both our children have both loved going, and we never had a reluctant drop-off (only reluctant pick-ups where they asked if they can stay and play longer!). Rosarii is kind, patient, attentive and highly capable. We cannot recommend her highly enough and feel so lucky to have found her!
I cannot recommend Rosarii highly enough. From the moment our son met her (and her family) he was instantly confident and at ease. He loves it so much that he doesn’t even turn back when we drop him off!
The environment that Rosarii creates for the children is lovely and very personalised. I remember filling out a detailed questionnaire and she accommodated so much of what our son loves. I was really impressed with this as Rosarii really understands what each child needs and brings this into a lot of the activities she does with him.
The activities that Rosarii does each week have really helped our son. Since going to Rosarii’s just once a week his speech improved massively, his understanding of everyday things such as numbers and colours improved and he became more independent with certain things. I cannot thank Rosarii enough for this as it’s been a great to see.
I would recommend Rosarii to anyone and believe she has been an integral part to our son’s development since he has been going to hers. She keeps us informed throughout the day and really goes above and beyond.
It is my pleasure to recommend Rosarri as a childminder. My son has attended the childcare setting since January 2020 and has thrived since day one of his joining. I was given piece of mind that he was in a warm, clean, and happy environment from the moment he arrived.
Rosarri has been able to support the growth and learning with Atti in many areas, some of which I’d
like to call out are learning to use a knife and fork independently, encouragement with tooth
brushing and routines, independently putting on his outdoor clothing, encouragement with potty
training, and support on sleep schedules. I was particularly impressed with how much he learned, Rosarri
taught him an array of shapes, letters and colours.
One thing I appreciate is the activities Rosarri organises that are outside and with other childminders
and children, the activities are always very creative, with a focus on arts and crafts which my son
loves. The setting has also given him confidence in developing his social skills and vocabulary, as
he’s amongst other children and loves playing the games that Rosarri organises. We’re updated with his daily schedule through the “Baby days” app, which informs us of his progress and
focus areas. Rosarri proactively reached out to his additional childcare setting to make sure his
learning is in sync with nursery. I also appreciate how Rosarri checks in with us to see what
development areas we’re focused on so she can supplement that learning.
My son adores going to Rosarii, he’s excited for the day ahead and this gives me confidence we
found a fantastic setting. We appreciate how well Atti is looked after and supported with his growth
and learning. We would highly recommend Rosarri to any parent, you will be in superb hands.
We found Rosarii in a desperate time of need when I was expecting our 2nd child and she was an absolute godsend and was above and beyond of what he had hoped or expected. She has been a real caring and nurturing figure in our sons life. Our son was born during covid so going into a setting like this was his first real introduction into a proper social environment and having been there a year now he has really blossomed and become a social butterfly. Her setting is definitely a home away from home and the mix of activities both at home and during trips out again have been a real benefit in building our sons confidence and understanding of the outside world. Her advise when needed has also been a great help when tackling these toddler years! We are only so sad that our sons time with her has been short and is coming to and end as we are moving. We will always be grateful for the positive impact and partnership we've experienced from Rosarii and we already feel that finding a replacement of the same calabria in our new location will almost be impossible!
Rosarii looked after my son from around the age of 2 and started going to her around the time of Covid so he wasn't used to other settings. At first he was sad to leave me, but always settled quickly and happily. And Rosarii would send me an update and photos, putting my mind at ease.
Rosarii always finds activities to appeal to my son- jigsaws, reading, mark making with cars, trips to the library, playgrounds and the local community garden which he loved. Her home is warm, loving and nurturing and she provides delicious home cooked , healthy meals.
Her older children are a delight and often play with my children in the school holidays when they go back to Rosarii's. They spend lots of time outdoors playing and meet up with other childminders and children.
Rosarii sends photos and a write up at the end of the day, is always happy for a chat on the door and shares her experience of childcare with you. For example my son's speech was delayed, Rosarii was a real comfort during this time, shared resources that we could use at home, she took part in additional courses like learning Makaton and really helped us to encourage and develop his speaking.
Her setting is a real home away from home. She loves what she does and loves the children in her care.
Rosarii is a brilliant childminder and an even better person. Both my children have been looked after by Rosarii along with their cousins over the last 10 years.
Rosarii is very thoughtful and puts the children at ease, it’s comforting knowing that my children have a fun filled day and are well looked after and they look forward to the next visit.
Rosarii is always working on their goals and bringing them on with whatever they are interested in and really following their lead. She has given us so much great advice on every phase we go through and on their development. My son took time to settle and she was so kind, patient and reassuring with him. We feel so grateful to have found Rosarii.
Our daughter has been going to Rosarii’s for nearly two years and she has grown leaps and bounds since starting with her.
My daughter started after lockdown and I was worried about leaving her as she only had me looking after her the first 21 months of her life but Rosarii made the transition so smooth. She was very thorough in the lead up which included settling is sessions before she started and made sure my daughter was always safe and happy. She sent me regular updates of her progress and kept me reassured. In no time she settled in and it was clear I made the right choice! Rosarii is a fantastic childminder, my daughter is always very happy to go in and is enthusiastic about her day when we collect her. She has a very nurturing, caring and loving home away from home environment.
Rosarii keeps her entertained throughout the day with trips out to places like the library, music class, the allotment where they take part in lots of activities like painting and learning about nature. She loves being outdoors and this has been a huge part to her development.
Rosarii has become an integral part of her learning and development. Her social skills and confidence have improved greatly since starting with her. She enjoys seeing and playing with her friends and loves telling us about her day and what she has been up to.
We’re very happy with the food Rosarii prepares for her and all the home cooked meals which she thoroughly enjoys and eats everything. She often does baking with the children, another activity my daughter loves!
Rosarii takes brilliant care of my daughter like she is one of her own and is very caring towards her. She has become an important person in my daughter’s life and early years. She is always calm and patient with all the children.
Rosarii is very good at keeping us up to date with photos and always has time to talk with us at pick up and drop off. She is very approachable and professional and we’re lucky to have her!
Our daughter leaves in September to start a preschool at my oldest daughter’s school and we will be very sad to leave her. We hope to still book her in during school holidays. We know our daughter will always love going to see her and the family who she has grown very fond and attached to as we have too!
Following on from the lovely experience our eldest had with Rosarii, we were very pleased when our youngest went to her’s. As I have mentioned in my earlier review, we were glad that Rosarii kept her services at the same high standard and consistency. All children were always looked after with genuine care. Rosarii appreciates the uniqueness of each child and modifies her approach with children as necessary. Children experience indoor and outdoor activities and learn in a child led way. We have relocated and really miss them a lot. We would happily recommend Rosarii as a childminder.
Our son enjoys going to Rosarii's home since he was about two years old. Rosarii provides a warm, caring and welcoming setting for children. There is a good mix of indoor and outdoor activities. The daily reports and photos are a delight. Whenever possible she has been happy with earlier drop off or late pick ups.
The meals are nutritious and our son has certainly learnt to experiment with fruits and vegetables! We are always kept informed about all activities, milestones, etc. We thank her for her brilliant ideas and tips on weaning, fussy eaters, potty training, too many to list them all here!
Our son is due to start school in September and his days of playing at Rosarii's everyday will end. However she is a fantastic neighbour and hopefully we will keep bumping into her and her lovely family. We are happy to recommend her as an excellent childminder who genuinely loves and cares for others.
