We feel so incredibly lucky to have found Yanka and her team. Our daughter spent three wonderful years with them, starting as a baby and staying right up until she left for “big school.” From the very first day (when we were sooo nervous to hand her over as new parents) it quickly became clear that Yanka’s was a true home away from home.

The love, care, and attention given to every child is beyond compare. Our daughter was nurtured as an individual, never forced into a one-size-fits-all routine, and instead supported in a way that let her thrive. She ate healthy home-cooked meals, went on countless little adventures to parks, playgroups, and the library, and learned so much — from good manners and tidying up, to toilet training, to building the confidence she carries with her now.

The environment Yanka and her assistants create is warm, reliable, and filled with kindness. They are also incredibly dependable and consistent — something that can be surprisingly hard to find — and we had complete peace of mind every day.

We really valued the daily updates and photos, which gave us such reassurance and a lovely window into her day. It was obvious how much thought and care goes into every detail of the children’s time.

Our daughter has now moved on to “big school,” but she still talks about Yanka and team so much, and often asks to stop by her house for a big hug or a play. That says everything! We couldn’t have asked for a better start in life for her, and we feel unbelievably lucky to have had these years with Yanka and her wonderful team. Without hesitation, we will entrust them with our second baby too.

Please feel free to reach out to me directly with any questions. If you are lucky enough to get a space at Yanka’s, your child will be in the absolute best hands!!
