My son has been with Sonia for 8months, starting when he was 18 months old. We had 2 weeks adaptation. Sonia took her time. She was very patient and has been great with our son. He loves going there every day. Sonia always provides healthy meals and snacks and encourages to try new things. I would highly recommend Sonia to anyone who wants a loving, caring, experienced and home from home environment for their child.

Thank you 😊🥰
Sonia has been caring for our son for 5 years. She and her family are like a part of our family. She has been a tremendous support.
She provides a home from home atmosphere, home cooked meals and supports each child's needs. We could not have managed without her help. I know she wants the best for each of the children she has and she's always open to discuss any issues. I would highly recommend Sonia.

Thank you so much 🥰
Sonia is caring for two of my children for over 8 years. Both of them enjoying staying at Sonia's. There's a real family atmosphere about the house - in a very positive sense. Both my children, for example, really enjoyed the opportunity to play with children, Sonia is an extremely committed professional, always giving children her full attention during sessions. At the same time she's able to talk easily to the parents and pass on anything she knows will interest or concern them - a skill sometimes overlooked in childcare!
She is not just a Childminder she is the much needed mother figure my daughter's needs whilst I am at work and I am so glad we have the joy of having her in our life.
