About Me

Hi i am a experienced Ofsted registered childminder in Hounslow. I’m Very warm and approachable. Working at school with SEND children gives me the added experience. I provide a healthy clean educational environment were children can learn and thrive. Whilst taking care of every individual’s needs with diligence.

I love working with children watching them grow each day is an adventure. I live in a four bedroom house with 2 living rooms a play room and garden. My setting is very well equipped to children of different ages providing healthy fun learning stimulation. Some of this includes table tennis a vast range of board games many more outdoor activities. Also educational books ranging from different levels and ages , puzzles, art and-craft, play dough, and more more toys.

Furthermore I can also provide breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks I aim to provide a balance healthy nutritional diet and work closely with parents to aid this.

Travel is easy as I have 2 buses serving my street with a bus stop within 4 meters of my house.
Parking is also not a problem for collection and drop off, With outside cctv surveillance for added protection.

I also work at Hounslow Heath Infant school as a SEN Teaching Assistant and as midday supervisor.
I have three children of my own who have added to my experience. I have a registered assistant to help at times when I am unavailable.
Please feel free to ask any questions. I am very patient and a good Listener.

Thanks kind regards Sonia

Thanks for your kind words.🙏

Excellent childcare provider

I'm thrilled to share my wonderful experience with Sonia as my child care provider! As a gigging musician couple, we needed last-minute childcare and found Sonia on childcare.co.uk. She went above and beyond, accommodating longer hours and providing excellent care for our 4-year-old son and 9-month-old baby girl. Being worried about leaving my little girl for the first time, Sonia put my mind at ease by ensuring she was well-looked after, fed, and even taken out on walks. She kept our little one engaged and happy throughout the day. Our son Vaiduriya had such a great time that he didn't want to leave!

Since then, we've relied on Sonia regularly whenever we are out and about, knowing that our children are under great care. I wholeheartedly recommend Sonia to others looking for a caring and reliable child care provider. She truly is exceptional, and we are grateful to have her in our lives!

Excellent

Sonia is amazing with my son. She is very patient and caring towards him. He looks forward to his time with her. Sonia has a very warm and nurturing environment. My son feels safe and comfortable in her home. She was very accommodating as I needed a childminder asap and has been very helpful since. I highly recommend Sonia.
