A recent inspection found that children feel safe and settled in this childcare setting. The environment is well-organized, offering plenty of choices for play and learning. Language development is effectively supported, with new words introduced throughout the day. Safeguarding arrangements are strong. Areas for improvement include allowing children more opportunities to problem-solve independently and strengthening links with other settings that children attend.

Sangeeta and Vijai cared for our daughter for around 2 years, and we couldn't have hoped for better childminders. They made our daughter feel comfortable, happy and confident, and she always came home full of excitement from her days there. They were also extremely helpful and accommodating, and always kept us informed on her development.

If you're lucky enough to get a space here for your child, you won't regret it.

Our son was with Sangeeta and Vijai for 18mths. We moved him as we moved home out of the area. They cared and developed our son better than we could have! They're understanding, patient and provide a happy, spotless, calm home. They are flexible, kind and great at developing children. Every other child was always so happy too. No shouting, raised voices, just firm affirmations from both Sangeeta and Vijai. They were more than just childminders, they cared for our son as one of their own and I know they do that with all the children. Our son has life threatening allergies and never once had a severe reaction due to their understanding and vigilance. We are eternally grateful and genuinely gutted we are moving him. They provide a home from home (with better toys and more activities).

We were so fortunate to find such a lovely setting with a caring and very professional childminder.
My children loved their time here, they were very well looked after. The setting is clean and very hygienic, the food is freshly prepared.
The activities are excellent and varied, my children would not stop talking about their daily experiences.I was kept informed daily on every aspect of my children's care.
I highly recommend Sangeeta and her setting, all you requirements under one roof.
