About Me

Hello, my name is Slavka. I have 2 vacancies from early morning - full time. From 9am - part time. I am very reliable and work most of the days. I have holidays in August only. I can help Saturdays if children attend full time during a week time.
I offer FREE 2,3,4 childcare. I accept childcare vouchers; Tax free childcare..
I am a fully accredited, an Ofsted Registered childminder.
I have excellent references and my goal is to get children ready with good knowledge to start nursery or reception.
I do pick ups from St. John school - Brook Lane WS9 location

I have completed my introduction to Child Minding Practice, The Diploma in Home-based Childcare (DHC) Level 3, course which is compulsory to all registered childminders.
I provide a happy, loving, and stimulating environment for each individual child, giving emphasis on good social skills.

I understand the dilemma and concerns about finding the right person to care for your child/children. I will work with you to ensure that I provide the most stable, very supportive, playful and loving environment for your child, whilst you are at work.
Children in my care love the setting and are very happy to spend time in here.

My priority is to help the parents with flexible hours, very early and late hours so I work from AM time you need and except late pick ups.
Being a 'Mum' myself, coupled with the qualifications required to be a Registered Childminder.
At my home, your child will have lots of fun; learning, exploring & playing in a child-safe environment.
I have a big variety of both indoors and outdoors play equipment in addition to all the other equipment needed to carry out normal child-care.

So glad slavka is looking after my little boy after a short time I have noticed such a big change in him, she's attentive, caring and makes a effort with every child encouraging learning whilst enjoying themselves.
My 2 year old boy smiles going there and smiles coming home!

Thank you :) I am happy to read this lovely review.

I have used Slavka once and I will definitely use her again.

Slavka is a very nice lady and my son was very happy and well looked after. Slavka came highly recommended by two of my friends.

My son had plenty of toys to play with and other toddlers were present, so that was a bonus as my son likes being around other babies, toddlers and children.

Her house is clean, warm and safe.

I'm so happy I have found a very good childminder, whos in a great location so near to me and cost effective.

Thank you very much Denise. I am happy when parents are happy. :)

Slavka was an instant like for my 21/2 yr od boy, specially because she has plenty of toys and spacious and clean environment to play around. Big Garden is a bonus for kids and has plenty of space for car parking which suits me as well.

Very calm and professional lady, and are a pleasant family. Finished paperwork very quickly and asked appropriate questions.

She quickly understood that my son loves trains and cars and keeps them out whenever he is expected.

I am now able to leave him in the night(during my night shifts) and she manages to follow the routine very well with ease. The room he sleeps looks like a toyland with stars, bedlamps, and toys. It is spacious, clean and meets the standards of ofsted guidance.
She keeps me updated regularly about his activity and reassures me. Her family are very warm and supportive as well.

It is amazing to have a childminder who can provide homely atmosphere and I would recommend her strongly anytime. I am happy to be contacted, if you need any more information.
