Aqsa is absolutely wonderful. I have a very clingy baby and the way Aqsa has supported us during the transition, going extra mile to make sure my daughter gets settled and feels safe and happy is commendable. I couldn't be more happier that we found Aqsa. She is very understanding and accommodating.
She provides a safe and nurturing environment to keep the kids busy with activities and takes them outdoors too. We especially love the daily photos from her to keep us updated.

Aqsa care for my child was absolute best, my child enjoyed her time and when back home she slept good 13hours sleep for the first time. I struggled with my child’s sleep schedule and her feeding. I’m so happy I can’t wait for her next care. Thank Tiney for giving me Aqsa.

I’m so happy with my boys being with Asqa. Such a warming welcome, my boys felt very welcomed straight away: I can’t wait to see them bloom. She’s so kind and attentive towards them, always looking out for them and their safety. I’m very happy with this arrangement
