My Summary
About Me
My name is Luiza and I have been an Ofsted registered childminder since December 2012. I am graded Good with my last inspection having taken place in October 2018. I am married and have a son aged 14 and a daughter aged 13 both of whom attend secondary schools in Bromley.
We live in Bromley (BR1) in a spacious house with an allocated playroom and a large garden close to Bromley North and Bromley South stations.
I provide a welcoming , child friendly environment which is equipped with a range of toys suitable for all ages. I am a very active person who loves outdoor activities and taking the children to toddler groups, local parks, woodland walks and trips to the library. I encourage learning through arts and crafts, baking and cooking with children.

I don’t even know where to begin, Luiza is just simply amazing. Taís has been with Luiza since April 2023. The growth and development that Taís has demonstrated is just amazing and that’s all thanks to Luizas reinforcement. Communication is great!! Luiza sends pictures and constantly updating me whether it be about a good day or bad day. Luiza is so caring and treats her the children in her care as her own. She also has an amazing family, which just makes everything easier. Taís loves Luizas older son and daughter!!! Words are not enough to express how grateful and thankful i am for Luizas help and support throughout the last few months. I would highly recommend xx
Luiza has been looking after our little girl for almost 2 years, and we’re so glad we found her. Being first time parents, we were very anxious about finding the right person and setting for our daughter when I returned to work. Luiza has been better than we could have hoped for, she takes the children out every day to different parks, playgroups and meet ups with other childminders, and has a lovely home with a playroom, lots of toys and craft activities (we have a wall full of artwork she’s brought home). Her family are also great with the children, so it really feels like a home from home environment.
Our daughter is very sporty, chatty and outgoing, and Luiza’s care and the variety of activities she provides has definitely played a big factor in this. She gives attention to the children’s development, so our daughter has learnt a lot during her time with her, including developing her language skills, learning colours, numbers etc. Luiza suggested when our child was ready for toilet training and offered us advice with this as well as taking a lead training her. Luiza is also good at teaching the children the right behaviours and they know where boundaries are.
On top of what she’s done for our daughter, she’s also helped us as first time parents offering advice when requested, and knows lots of toddler friendly places to go or activities to try out in the local area. She has been extremely reliable and never let us down, and gives more than enough notice of any planned holidays. We’ll miss seeing her each day, but we’re really hoping Luiza will have availability to look after our little boy when my current maternity leave ends, and I know she’s already cared for many siblings, which shows just how much many families love her.
We were planning to see quite a few childminders before we made our mind up but once we met Luiza in her home we were sold, she looked after my daughter for three years and she was brilliant.
Her home where she works is warm, comfortable and safe for children, has a lovely play room that all the children loved and Luiza's family are all lovely and treat the children being cared for like a part of the family.
Luiza provides nutritious meals that my daughter thoroughly enjoyed (she still won't eat my chilli con carne) and is understanding to the children's eating habits without being a pushover.
Her positive influence on my daughter is impossible to exaggerate and we still use her name as a correcting tool on my daughters' behaviour (what would Luiza say if you were behaving like this?)
My daughter wasn't just watched and looked after, she was listened to, nurtured, trusted, protected, taught and loved by an amazing woman who my whole family miss.
I cannot recommend Luiza enough and I would immediately put any of my family or friends in touch with her should they find the need for childcare.
As a first time father I was very particular and nervous about leaving my daughter with anyone but felt totally at ease knowing she was in the care of such a loving, decent, experienced and honest woman.
We really do LOVE Luiza and are glad she was a part of our lives so if you're looking for a childminder do yourself a favour!......She's great.
Luiza is a phenomenal child minder and our daughter has been extremely happy for the last two years in her care. She has created a happy, friendly home from home in which our daughter has thrived and has embraced the transition to nursery as a result.
Luiza has provided our daughter with an excellent foundation for the future and we can’t thank her, or recommend her enough.
Wonderful experience with Luiza as childminder, she's been looking after our 2 years old daughter, with value and professional services, I would like to recommend her services.
Luiza was able to devellop and raised our daughter with loves and guidances.
She was also capable to respect my daughter food supplement diary.
She has a very clean garden and play room available for kids at home.
Looking forward to work with Luiza for the next one...
Regards,
Kams
