Iren

Thank you for our daughter she is very happy

Hi Iren,
We just wanted to say a big thank you for everything you’ve done for our daughter since she started with you at age one. She settled in so quickly and always looks forward to coming to yours — which says a lot!
You’ve been so warm, kind, and reliable from the start, and it’s been such a positive experience for us as parents. We really appreciate how professional and caring you are — it’s clear how much you love working with kids.
The space you’ve created is always clean, safe, and full of fun things to do. Our daughter especially loves the mix of activities — from arts and crafts to baking and all the time spent outdoors. She’s always learning and having fun.
We also really value how well you communicate with us. We always know what she’s been up to, and you’re great at keeping us in the loop. And honestly, some of our favourite photos of her have come from you — thank you for capturing those lovely moments and sharing them with us!
We feel so lucky to have found you. Thank you again for everything!

Best,
Stas

Caring, creative and trustworthy

Our daughter started at Iren's childminding when she was 1, settled in quickly and always looks forward to going to Iren's.
Iren is a warm and positive person and we've had a fantastic experience from day one - she's been reliable, professional, and genuinely caring.
The environment is safe, clean, and well-organized, with a great mix of activities, art, baking and spending a lot of time outdoors. It's clear that Iren genuinely enjoys working with children.
Communication has been excellent — we always know what our child has been up to, and any concerns are addressed quickly and openly.
As a bonus, some of the best photos of our child adorning our walls are thanks to Iren's capturing the best moments and sending us photos at the end of the day. Highly recommended!

A Wonderful Start with Iren

My little one loved Iren from the very first day — she was very welcoming and had great rapport with children. We are very satisfied with her services, and most importantly, our boy is doing very well there with the other children. A big thank you for all the work you’ve done — we are very lucky to have met you.

The best childminder for my child.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to our daughter’s сhildminder, Iren. When our child first started attending the setting, she was very shy, withdrawn, and hesitant to interact with other children or adults. But thanks to Iren warmth, patience, and professional approach, our daughter adapted very quickly.

Iren managed to find the right approach, and in a short time, we saw wonderful changes: our daughter became more confident, happily goes to the setting, eagerly interacts with other children, plays, and participates in group activities.

We truly appreciate the atmosphere of kindness, creativity, and support that Iren creates. The children are constantly engaged in interesting activities such as drawing, dancing, and educational games — all of which help them grow, discover the world, and enjoy the process.

We are very thankful for the care, professionalism, and genuine attitude towards the children. It gives us peace of mind and joy knowing our daughter is in such good hands.

Wonderful Childminder

Our son has been with Iren from a very young age, and he has absolutely loved being looked after by her. He is always happy and excited to be spending the day there and loves seeing all his friends there. Iren has provided a very caring, supportive, and fun home-from-home environment in which our son has thrived. Her communication has always been excellent, with both children and parents. The children have a wide variety of activities during the day including plenty of time outside, feeding animals, arts and crafts activities, yoga, and the food Iren provides is healthy and varied. I highly recommend her for anyone looking for top quality, reliable, caring childminding in the Eltham area.
Thank you, Iren !

A professional you can fully trust

We know Iren for the last few years. She has become a friend and a trusted childminder for our son Matthew. Matthew absolutely loves to go to Iren, his day usually starts with let’s go to Iren :)
The kids daily do some creative work. Matthew always brings results of his drawings and tells the story when they did the work together. Kids are doing yoga at Iren’s, go out to the park and see the farm animals. He is happy, smiling and there is always a story to share after the day with Iren.
For our family Iren is the professional, who we fully trust.

We highly recommend Iren❤️

Iren is very warm, friendly, responsible and experienced carer!
My Alice was really happy to spending time in her place! Her day was structured with activities, singing, painting, reading books and many hours in the park or somewhere outside!
I would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their child !

Thank you very much for the review Lesia!❤️

Iren is our favourite childminder.

Iren was recommended to us by friends and our family is the happiest that we met her and she is our childminder. From the first meeting my girls loved her. She is very professional, caring and responsible. They do lots of things: learning , puzzles, painting, yoga , reading and the piece of work that they do on that day they are bringing home , such a good way to know that your child improve their skills everyday. She is taking them to playground and outside for walks no matter if is raining or not . Also what is appreciate that she cooks good and health food and provides range of fruits. I totally recommend her and i do consider that anyone need a childminder like Iren.

Amazing care provided, my son loves going t Iren's

We have known Iren for over 2 years. We met at a weekly playgroup that Iren used to runs as her charity project. My 2 y. o. son is looking forward to his time with Iren't every single time. He tells me all about various interesting things they do and brings his piece of work home with pride. Iren makes sure the children get every opportunity to develop their motor, mental, language and even academic skills from an early age. They spend a lot of time outside and eat healthily. At the end of the day Iren sends a report and some pictures from the day. I am 100% satisfied and strongly recommend Iren as a childminder. My boy is very happy with her.

Reliable and highly recommended childminder

Our daughter had spend over 2 years under Iren’s care and we could not be more happy with this choice! My girl was alway looking forward to spend another day in “Iren’s house” which was so nicely arranged and carefully prepared for a day where a child could have safe and engaging environment. Iren is very caring and professional childminder, each day we had a picture report on kids activities and we had full trust in her to look after my child. Thank you, Iren!
