Excellent childminder in Finchley

Our 2-year-old daughter has been going to Sadika for about a year and half now (full day 8am-6pm, 5 day a week), and we feel very lucky to have Sadika and her mum around to look after our daughter since she was 10-11 month old. Sadika has been great and we feel our daughter is being taken care of like a part of the big family at her home.

Our daughter looks forward to going to Sadika’s house every morning and playing with other kids that Sadika looks after. During the past year, Sadika has arranged a variety of activities indoors and outdoors for our daughter, such as baby/toddler’s classes in nearby playgroups (art, dance, etc.), playing in the nearby parks and soft-plays, and creating festival arts/crafts for mums and dads. We believe that our daughter’s learning development is aligned with, and in some areas exceeded our expectations. Our daughter also benefits from spending time with the mixed-age group, and with Messi the cat too.

We feel Sadika has a clear understanding of our daughter’s daily activities as she provided detailed records upon request (e.g. activity details and pictures, food, nap time, and nappies), as well as our daughter’s learning development as she has helped to complete a detailed 2-page form for our daughter’s 2yo Development Check.

Sadika looks after children with different age groups and background, and celebrate different cultural/ethnical days throughout the year. This makes her home a cultural diversified place and we feel our daughter has had a good understanding of different cultures since she was a baby.

In summary, it is a very warm, secure and fun home. Last but not the least, Sadika is very flexible in daily/weekly schedule arrangement and great boon to working parents. We are more than happy to provide further details if anyone needs to know more about our daughter’s time at Sadika’s.
