Sufia has been an outstanding childminder and the best decision we made for our son. Her dedication, expertise, compassion and care has truly amazing and most importantly she was able to understand and cater to my child needs making the transition from home alot easier. Sufia kept us informed about our child's daily activities, meals, and any special moments after each day. My child wasn't a great eater which i was really worried about but Sufia really made sure he ate well and would always ensure they were clean after each day! (a complete different experience from sending my 1st child to nursery!)
Sufia's attention to detail in maintaining a clean and secure space for our child really gave us complete peace of mind.
Our family are beyond grateful for the positive impact she has had on our child's development and would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone - Thank you Sufia for your love and suport.

Our son has been with Sufia for almost 4 years! When I first started to search for a nursery for my son, I wasn’t comfortable at all with taking him to a nursery as he was not 1 year old yet. I then decided to find a childminder and Sufia has put me at ease a lot especially during that initial transition. For anyone that knows how hard it can be, for me the communication that Sufia provided me with was very reassuring. The transition went very well and my son ended up loving going there, rarely complaining about going. Any time there has been something to be discussed, it was done so very openly and I have no complaints at all. I highly recommend Sufia for anyone that thinks nursery is not the right place, she will provide the children with all the skills they need before going reception. All her family is lovely and we have ended up thinking of them as family too. Highly recommend!

I feel so incredibly lucky to have found Sufia. I had initially put my son into a nursery with a very good reputation and he just didn’t settle well and I had several concerns about the quality of care they provided as well as consistency of the key worker. Sufia was recommended by a friend and my son has now been with her for almost 2 years and I have not a single complaint. Sufia is so thoughtful and provides an excellent standard of care and the family environment and involvement of her daughters in activities and things like that has made the whole experience for my son so enjoyable and he has formed a relationship with all of them. Even after moving out of the area we continued to send him to Sufia’s because we were so pleased with the level of care and worried that we wouldn’t receive that in other places. My son was quite a fussy eater and she managed to get him to try lots of different food and he’s now very open to eating a variety of things. She also really supported his potty training. Sufia has always been very good at communicating with us and developing a working relationship where we are all on the same page. He is now moving to school and has had such an excellent grounding with Sufia. I highly recommend her and honestly have nothing to fault.

Many thanks for your kind words Madiha.
I cannot recommend Sufia’s childminding enough as so far I have been very impressed by her professionalism and her great care towards her children. Initially my daughter started at another childminder however it was very far to keep doing the journey forth and back with a 9months baby . My other childminder advised me to look closer to my house. I was very hesitant however after reading the reviews here helped me to deciding to contact Sufia. I am glad I did so as she has impressed me from start to now. My family and I went to visit her prior to confirming anything. She showed me her setting and introduced us to her husband who was there that day. I would say they are very warm welcoming family. They showed us every reports and documents e.g Ofsted report. My baby is settled in her Sufia’s setting quicker than I imagined. Sufia is very focused during her working hours and give her all her time on the children. At beginning my daughter wanted security and she got it from Sufia. I feel my daughter and I are very happy and lucky to have Sufia in our life as she made us felt like family. She has a very good understanding and high knowledge of childminding since she has been doing it for over 15 years. From day 1 on a daily basis Sufia communicates to my husband and I in regards to what our daughter has eaten , what has she been doing and so on. Sufia has developed a close relationship with our daughter and both of us. Sufia has a setting where children feel at home that comes with healthy yummy food.She looks after the children as her own. When my baby was teething and didn’t want to eat what she made, Sufia goes out of her way to make my daughter her favourite food. I am very grateful and thankful to Sufia , this has really touched my heart.
Sufia is amazing- Kind, thoughtful and puts the kids she looks after first. My daughter is amazingly well looked after. She has so much fun and is loved by Sufia and her family. She is so keen to get in when daddy goes to drop her. Unbelievable but true.. I am so glad that all the kids at that settings are lucky to have Sufia as their mother like.

Our daughter has been with Sufia for the last year and a half after starting at her setting when she had just turned 1.
We could not have hoped for a more caring and considerate child minder. It is like dropping her off each day with family.
She does a lot of varied activities including occasional day trips to the local park. There's lots of arts and crafts and play time in the garden which was important to us.
Sufia's food is incredible (we were lucky to try it on a number of occasions!) So we are very jealous of the children getting to eat that everyday. Our daughter has some food intolerances so these are also taken into consideration by Sufia.
Despite the pandemic Sufia's child care continued throughout with great communication.
I can't recommend Sufia highly enough to anyone looking for a caring child minder in East London.
