Amazing! Needed a childminder at short notice, Shaz was incredibly helpful when filling out forms and talking through the process as I had not used a childminder before. Shaz is friendly and gives great advice. Both my boys (3 and 1.5) settled with her and enjoyed being with her. She often took them to the park, library and playgroups and sent me videos and pictures to help me feel at ease. I would definitely use Shaz next time I need a childminder as my boys were happy and settled with her and she communicated often over WhatsApp, phone calls, face to face conversations and with pictures/videos .

Shazia is absolutely amazing. She is extremely caring and has been looking after my baby since he was 6 months old and now he is 1 years old. She has always helped him get better when he wasn’t feeling well gave him good food to make him better. She makes sure he is fed Wel and gives him different food to keep him happy. She keeps him entertained. And also gives really good advise on how to keep baby healthy.

Shaz is a lifesaver! I met her at a time when the previous childminder dropped us suddenly during school term. Which was a difficult process trying to find a replacement.
Shaz is an amazing person, gentle and caring personality with a nurturing attitude.
Shazia treats all children in the setting just like her own, the children play and interact so well together.
Shaz is also experienced in working with SEN children, she caters well to my son who is usually shy around new people, warmed up to Shaz on the very first day which was very comforting to see.

My 11 month old daughter attends her settings. She is very understanding and very accommodating. My daughter settled in very well. She manages my very early shifts and my late shifts very well which is something I’ll always appreciate . She is the reason I was able to return to my job after maternity leave. She treats my daughter like her own

Shazia is found to be very kind and understanding. My daughter settled in with her very quickly and enjoyed being at Shazia’s.
I would recommend Shazia to anyone looking for unsociable child care cover, key workers who does shift work etc.

I know Shazia for at least one year. She is very good in taking care of my daughter who has autism. As a special needs child’s parent, I wouldn’t trust my daughter to be with anyone. However, Shazia is trustworthy so far and I will continue taking her services.
