Amrita has been childminding my son Erik (3.5years) since December 2015. She looks after him for 3-5 days each week.
I have been extremely happy with the care Erik has received, and the great progress he has made whilst in Amrita’s care. Amrita’s home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and Erik has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care.
She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise. I know Erik has recently enjoyed sand and water play, drawing and sticking, reading and puzzles as well as outings to the playground, trips to feed the animals in the farm and walks in the park.
 Amrita is a great communicator and has no trouble in gaining Erik’s confidence and therefore encouraging good behaviour and kindness and compassion to others, both skills which are important to us at home. When Erik steps outside his boundaries she responds with firm but kind discipline explaining what we would like to see in terms which he understands. When he is hurt or feeling under the weather I know that he feels happy to be comforted by her and I am confident that she can administer either first aid or medication following all the correct procedures and completing the necessary records to ensure his health and safety.
Amrita completes a diary detailing what Erik has done each day. From this I have a complete picture of his whole day including what he has eaten, how long he has slept and all his activities. This helps me to feel involved with his care.
All in all I am thoroughly happy with the level of care Erik receives and I’m certain that being in such a positive and happy environment is helping him develop into a confident and self assured little boy.
I would absolutely recommend Amrita as a great and reliable childminder.
