I highly rate Abi as a childminder. My daughter is so happy and settled there and when she goes there she rushes in without looking back. She enjoys being at Abis. Abi is great and communicating on a day to day and sends pictures and updates. My daughter is well looked after fed and also has a chance to nap in the afternoon. I am really happy with her as she is doing a wonderful job.
I needed a childminder that was so understanding and flexible to accommodate all my needs and most importantly someone I could trust with my son. Abiq ticked all the boxes.
She gives me feedback on what happened with my son during the day from how much he ate to how long he slept during his nap time.
She even went the extra length to get the particular brand of yoghurt and fruit pots my son eats as desert.
I will like to add the fact that she and her family are an easygoing bunch.
Thanks for always being for being a great childminder Abi.
Taking my son to Abi is the best decision we made when he turned 1year old. Abi is amazing with my son and the other children. You can see how happy they all are and my baby is always excited when i drop him off. When he comes home he keeps calling her name (i'm not jealous at all 😊) Abi is amazing with these children and i live for those daily photos she sends to me. I would highly recommend Abi.
This lady is simply amazing! She really makes an effort to engage with kids and develop them in a very individualised way. My daughter has been going there for a year now and I couldn’t ask for a better daycare. Also my daughter has an advanced stranger anxiety and Abi managed it very well and helped my daughter overcome it so she doesn't have panic attacks no more! Please keep on the great job that you do. ❤
After deciding to return to full time work just after moving to a new city, I found myself in the dilemma of choosing between childminders and nurseries. I thank to God that I found Abi - a childminder who treats him in such a loving and caring way that he feels like home at her place and even remembers her during weekend! For me my son's emotional security and development is most important. I feel he should not feel parents' absence at a childminder/nursery and my son never does that with Abi. She keeps him engaged in activities, pamper him with love and guides him like a mother..what more I could wish for!! God bless her!
I can honestly say Abi has been an excellent childminder. My son does a variety of activities there - ranging from painting, craft, puzzle-solving to trips to the nearby parks and play-areas. Abi made my transition to work so smooth which I never imagined. He has been learning new things at her place and improved at many aspects. She gives me proper report of what he did for the whole day and what he ate. He was fussy eater but Abi spent a dedicated time to make him eat good diet. His eating habits have improved, touchwood, after he has started going to Abi's place.
All in all a fantastic, warm, enthusiastic, cheerful, family-type childminders where you know your little one is not only looked after but truly cared for the way you would look after him.
