Elena's Reviews
Parent
Below are the reviews that Elena has written.
Victoria has been like a second mom for my little girl. She has quickly adapted to her needs and my toddler always comes back home with a smile on her face and telling me(in her own words) about her day. Victoria is caring, patient, responsible and very good at her job. She has always given advice to us as new parents and always happy to help. She has educational toys and activities for the children which we don’t have at home. I love that my little one is surrounded by pets . From the bottom of my heart , I would recommend Victoria to anyone looking for a childminder ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you for my wonderful review. I am hoping that it helps to attract a family as fantastic as you!
We had just moved and it was very important that our little girl was in good hands. I remember the first day I picked her up I was astounded by her vocabulary.Miss Malina was wonderful at getting her to settle in , she was kind and nurturing while slowly discovering her academic skills and her need for mental stimulation .She thrived with her letters and numbers and she could sound out three or even four letter words by their phonetic spelling. She was only 2 years and 8 months old. She made lovely friendships with the rest of the children and she ate all of the delicious freshly prepared food. I have no doubt all the children in her care are well taken care of and will develop exponentially in her care . All the best to you , Malina . We will miss you dearly 🤗🤗

We found Shelley and Brian at the very last minute, and we honestly feel so lucky that we did! From the moment she started, our little girl absolutely loved going to their house and was always so excited to see them.
They gave her such a lovely, fun and varied experience, taking her on outings to pretty much every child-friendly place in the area, as well as trips to the beach, parks and lots of other adventures. She had plenty of opportunities to play with children her own age and younger children, which really helped her become more confident, sociable and independent.
They also played a huge part in getting her ready for school. Her communication and ability to express herself improved so much, and we could really see her confidence grow. She had also been going through a phase of hitting when she first started, which is apparently very normal at her age, but amazingly it stopped completely within a week of being with Shelley and Brian.
Most importantly, she was genuinely happy and cared for. We always knew she was having a wonderful time and being looked after with so much patience, kindness and understanding.
We couldn’t have asked for better childminders and feel incredibly grateful that we found them. They have been such a special part of her early years, and we will miss them enormously. ❤️
