I will recommend to anyone.
Aga is well respected childminder by her pupils and by the parents who leave their children in safe hands. From the very first day of settling my son loved the environment and blended in with other children in no time. Aga carefully observe each needs of the children and set appropriate tasks for individuals to help develop essential skills.
She promote independence , respect, manners and hygiene. The only downside that I found is that all children are going for a nap regardless the age group as some children don’t have routine of napping through the day. I still would recommend her to any parent as the child really learn a lot and enjoy being there.

Thank you Gosia for the review.It was a pleasure to have your little one with me.In response to a nap time ,yes all children that I care for in my setting go to sleep after lunch.For young kids to get enough of it, most need some daytime sleep it is a much-needed downtime that aids the important physical and mental development that happens in early childhood.Some of the most important reasons why naps are so important:Naps enhance learning, are linked to better emotional regulation,naps support better nighttime sleep. Recent researches fund that when the children were allowed a siesta after lunch they performed significantly better on a visual-spatial tasks in the afternoon and the next day than when they were denied a midday snoozeFollowing a nap, children recalled 10% more of the information they were being tested on than they did when they had been kept awake.
Close monitoring of 14 additional youngsters who came to the researchers' sleep lab revealed the processes at work in the brain during asleep.
As the children napped, they experienced increased activity in brain regions linked with learning and integrating new information.Rebecca Spencer(University of Massachusetts Amherst) said: "Essentially we are the first to report evidence that naps are important for preschool children.
"Our study shows that naps help the kids better remember what they are learning in preschool."
