About Me
My name is Ama, an Ofsted registered childcare provider, rated GOOD.
I am friendly and my setting is a warm and loving home environment for children, right from birth up to older ones.
I am married to Sam( a secondary school teacher) and we're blessed with three lovely children.
I have an inclusive approach and work closely and in partnership with parents to ensure their children get the best care and support. Being with children is more than a job for me, because I am happy to give them all the support for their early years education.

For me, each and every child is worth cared for, and each child's well-being is a priority. It's all joy for me to see children meet their development milestones.

As I start writing this review, my heart warms and I start to smile when I think about the wonderful care and love Ama showed our baby daughter.
We had to go back to work quite quickly and we were worried about leaving our Daughter so young with someone else but Ama showed her so much care and welcomed her into her home and family.
She put our minds at peace, sent regular updates and pictures for us to see and our daughter clearly loved being there - she was excited to see Ama and her family every day, was always smiling and extremely happy.
She has a great setup, a lovely home and an environment in which our little daughter could grow and thrive. We were gutted not to be able to use her for longer as we've moved away from the area for a while. However, we wouldn't hesitate in sending her back again.
Ama is amazing, thank you so much Ama! x

My 3 year old loved going to ‘Aunty’ Ama’s place. He always had a great time, came home happy, smiling and chatting about his day. We always got sent photos and updates of them out and about and I always knew he was being well looked after.
Thanks Ama, we miss you!

Our experience with Ama so far has been fantastic. My baby loves her and her family, and is excited to see them every day. She comes home happy.
Ama has adapted to our difficult schedule with a smile. I feel relaxed and happy leaving my baby with her and I know she will thrive there.
Thank you Ama!

Ama’s setting is a beautifully set out space, promoting peace, play and an immaculately clean environment for learning. We loved the space, her clear dedication to her work and the thought she had put into everything. We were sad not to be able to use her: only due to our distance from the setting and the practicalities of getting the little ones there in the morning. We would gladly leave our children in Ama’s care and hope to have the opportunity to do so in the future.

When I say Ama was a wonderful Childminder, you better believe it. Although we weren't with her for long, she did an awesome job.
My son used to be so excited to see her, I couldn't even get a hug goodbye.
Her toys and play set up was ready for teaching and learning and was really good, my son came home with new words and songs every time he went to her.
She is a really great woman. We miss you, Ama!
Only reason I stopped was because I had another baby and wasn't able to drive to drop off my little one.
