Sadika looked after my son from when he was 1 until he went to nursery at 3 years old. She offers a wonderful and loving setting, a real home from home. I remember when I was looking at childminders I began to feel a bit despondent thinking that I wouldn't be able to find someone with the right fit. Until I went to Sadika's. The moment I stepped inside I felt the love, the warmth, the joy and the absolute care that she offers the children. I knew from the moment that I saw her that my son would get the best experience with her and her mum (ama). My son would cry at almost every drop off due to major separation anxiety) and she would always reassure me and send pictures throughout the day to show how happy and settled he was. It's a testament to her that at every pick up he was in the best of moods and so happy!

Not only does she offer such a lovely setting for the little ones but she's also extremely flexible and accommodating. There was many a time I asked for ad hoc childcare, and for her to look after my older school children which was an absolute godsend at times.

Sadika does many activities with the children including arts and crafts and learning about all different religious festivals which is really great. The food is nutritious and delicious and she is generous with her time and gifts she bestows on the children. I would highly recommend her to anyone and want to thank her so much for all the care she took of son.
