We are so happy

We're absolutely delighted with Shereen and Sophia, who've been caring for our son over the past six months. They've made him feel incredibly welcome, and it's lovely to see him run to them with excitement when we drop him off. They plan engaging activities and outings, and keep us updated throughout the day with thoughtful notes and photos. Their dedication, creativity and kindness make them stand out, and we'd definitely recommend them to other families seeking trustworthy childminders.

Hi Safia,

Thank you so much for your lovely review and for taking the time to write it, it really means a lot to us. It has been amazing to see how settled little A has become with us and how many lovely friendships he’s already forming with the other children. His pure, positive energy truly rubs off on everyone around him and brings so much warmth into the setting. Watching him grow and develop with us has been so special. Thank you for your trust and for being such a supportive family to work alongside 🤍
Sophia & Shereen

Excellent❤️❤️❤️

I feel so lucky to have found Sophia and Shereen. As a first time parent, I was really nervous about leaving my daughter in someone else’s care, but from the very first day, they made me feel completely at ease. They are kind, caring, and so reliable. My daughter absolutely adores them and always looks forward to going. Knowing she is happy, safe, and loved while I’m at work brings me so much peace. I’m truly grateful to have them as her childminders.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!❤️❤️❤️

Hi Faria,

Thank you so much for such a beautiful and heartfelt review, it truly means the world to us 🤍
We are so grateful to have met such a wonderful family like yours, and we feel incredibly lucky to care for your little girl. She is an absolute joy to have in our setting and we truly adore her.

Seeing her run through the door so happily each morning is the icing on the cake for us, it genuinely makes our day! Watching her grow, develop and flourish has been such a privilege, and we are so proud of her.

Thank you for trusting us with your precious little one and for being such a lovely family to work with. We truly value the partnership we share and look forward to continuing to support her every step of the way 🤍✨

With so much gratitude,
Sophia & Shereen

I appreciate you

My son was with Sophia and Shereen for almost a year from the age of 3 and did the school runs for me.
They have been amazing and I have been extremely happy with his care and the way they have spoken out for him at his nursery when they've collected him from nursery with his clothes wet or stained pants. I really appreciated that as I wasn't able to do so at those times.
They provided a wide, fun range of activities and always kept me updated with his eating and activities via their app.
Additionally they are very easy going and easy to talk with if you have any concerns.
Thank you guys for making him feel at home when he is away from home

Thank you Fran, we are missing him already. He is a joy to be around and is such a lovely boy that made friends with all the children. His bright smiles in the morning definitely made our mornings, and him calling us auntie always made him feel like family. We wish you all the best and hope you stay in touch.

Lots of love,
Sophia and Shereen

Amazing childminders

I would highly recommend Goldencare childminders. We only left as we are moving out of area. It was sad to say goodbye as I could tell my son really loved it there which was reassuring as it was his first time going to a childminder when I returned to work. Sophia and Shereen were great at taking on any specific requests/concerns, always posted regular updates, provided varied activities and took the kids on fun outings every week.

Dear Heidi,

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. We are truly grateful for your kind words. It was a pleasure having your son with us. We absolutely adored him, and we are glad to hear that he enjoyed his time here.

Your son is so smart and loving, and he brought so much joy to our setting. Knowing that you felt reassured and satisfied with our care means a lot to us.

We will miss your son dearly and wish you and your family all the best in your new area. Thank you once again for your review.

Take care,

Shereen & Sophia

Amazing childminders

I am sad my son didnt start sooner with Sophia & Shereen! He loves going to his childminders & he has grown & learnt so much in their care. They are both so lovely & made me and my son feel so comfortable from the very beginning. Would recommend to anybody looking for outstanding & professional childcare. Would give more stars if i could! They put so much time & effort into what they do & take the children on fun outings most days of the week. They give daily updates & pictures of the children’s activities. They cater to different dietary requirements & you can tell they truly care for the children in their care. Truly amazing experience.

Thank you 😊

We cannot express how much joy it has been looking after your son. He is loved by us and the children as he literally is the life of the party and lights up any room. He gains compliments everywhere we take him as he is so beautiful and well-dressed.

We are thrilled to hear how happy your son is and how much he has grown and learned in our care. Your kind words mean the world to us, and we are grateful for the opportunity to be a part of his development. It’s wonderful to know that you feel comfortable and confident with us.

Thank you once again for your trust and review.

Warm regards,

Shereen & Sophia

A wonderful childminder

Shereen & Sophia has been looking after our son since he was 2.5 Year old.So we just started initally for 1 and half months but then we just continued. He is now leaving age 3 and a half and just because we are shifting to a new place otherwise we would just have continued. Shereen & Sophia are simply a wonderful childminder. She takes great care and attention in planning a huge range of activities for the children, from cooking, drawing, playing in the garden, gardening, crafts, going to children groups,library & other educational outings etc. As a result our son has really thrived ,growing in confidence and abilities, during his time in her care. In fact he asks every day whether he is going to Sophia's place today and is delighted when the answer is yes! We could not have asked for anything more, the children can enjoy the wonderful activities, puzzles and different areas to play in the house too.She provides a, stimulating, homely, safe environment and always provides the children with great activities to entertain and challenge them, I could not say how grateful we are to Shereen & Sophia and we recommend her warmly.

Thank you so much for this wonderful review. It has been an absolute pleasure looking after your son and seeing him grow. He brings so much joy and laughter to our nursery. The children, Sophia and I absolutely adore him. Honestly, he will truly be missed by us all. Have to commend you and your husband for raising such a well mannered, happy and well behaved child. It will be sad to see him go but feel free to stay in touch, as we would love to see how much he has grown in the future.

Love 😊
Shereen and Sophia

Amazing x2

Sophia and Shereen are amazing with my 7 month son. They look after him very well and are very understanding. As soon as I drop my son, I have no worries because I can see they deeply care for him. Sophia and Shereen are very respectful not only to the kids but also the parents. They makes sure that the child is fed, clean and stimulated. I particularly like that they give daily updates so I know my baby is being well take care of. A big thumbs up ladies.

Your child is such a great addition to Goldencare and we must say, it's also important for childcare providers to find great families to work with, and you guys are amazing. So five stars to you guys also.

Excellent Nanny!

Sophia has looked after both of our children for over 5 years. She has taken great care of them and takes a lot of pride in her work which she always approaches with a cheery attitude. The kids love her and look forward to any opportunity to spend time with her. We are very grateful to Sophia for all the love and care she has shown to our kids over the years. G&H

Professional Nanny; Kids Loved Her!

Sophia was like a member of our family; my kids were small when she was our nanny and we absolutely trusted her and loved her! Great combination of professional behaviour but warm and loving with the kids. Would totally recommend her!

Mesmerising

Shereen looked after my daughter for few days. My daughter was completely mesmerized in her presence, she enjoyed every minute to the fullest in her presence. She used to start jumping around in excitement when I tell her that Shereen is going to look after you today.
