Peace of Mind for Any Parent

5 stars

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a more caring, loving and supportive childminder for my 3 year old daughter. From the very beginning,Halima made both me and my daughter feel completely comfortable and reassured. It’s never easy leaving your child in someone else’s care, but knowing she is happy, safe and genuinely cared for makes all the difference.

The patience, kindness and attention they give every single day is incredible. My daughter has grown so much in confidence, learning and social skills since being with them, and it’s clear how much effort goes into creating such a warm and nurturing environment.

Communication has always been amazing, with regular updates, photos and reassurance throughout the day, which means so much as a parent. It truly feels like my daughter is being cared for like family.

I’m beyond grateful for everything they do and would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, professional and genuinely passionate about childcare.

Thanks a lot Andrea I really appreciate 🙏.

Amazing carer and great communication

5 stars

I think Halima is one of the best I have met, that's why I can recommend her with no hesitation. She is very professional, respectful, communicates well, so I know what I stand on even if she is busy. I visited her to get to know briefly before I brought my daughter in. She is very warm, friendly and her place is clean. My daughter had just been with Halima last weekend for 4hrs and didn't want to go home. Halima has good prices as well. She is in town centre, which is a perfect location. I trust her and hoping for a long-term cooperation. Thank you Halima.

Thank you so much for the lovely compliment and for choosing Halima’s Little Learners to care for your child.

Amazing and trustworthy childminder

5 stars

Halima is an amazing childminder. It was the first time for us that we left our 22 month old daughter to someone and we were stressed about this idea. She was very professional and took care of our daughter like a mom would do. The food she provodes is balanced, adapted to her age and she respectes her rythm. She does a lot of activities as well to entertain her. On top of that, she is a very kind woman full of attention for us, I recommend her 1000%.

Trustworthy and Reliable

5 stars

Halima is a trusted and reliable person and good in building good relationships with the child and the whole family. Halima started looking after my children way back even before becoming a registered child minder. Children are well looked after under her care, feels happy and comfortable, to me is like a home away from home, am less anxious and able to concentrate when my child is with her, without forgetting she is a good cook too. I recommend her to parents who are looking for carrying and safe environments for their children.
