I cannot recommend Purnima and her setting highly enough. She cared for my son from the age of 1 year and 2 months until he turned 3, throughout that time she provided such a loving, safe, and nurturing environment for him.

From the very beginning, she made me feel completely at ease (and I had been to see many other Childminders). Our son settled in quickly thanks to her patience, warmth, and genuine care. It was clear every day how much attention she gave to his emotional wellbeing, development, and happiness and this also reflected on all the other children she cares for.

Over the time he was with her, we saw him grow so much in confidence, communication (as he was only a Spanish speaker when he started), social skills, and independence. She always kept us updated on his progress and activities, and we truly appreciated the effort she put into creating fun, educational, and engaging experiences for him.

What stood out most was how caring Purnima and everyone within her setting are. I always knew my son was in safe hands and being looked after as if he was part of the family. He absolutely loved spending time within her setting which gave us enormous peace of mind as parents.
Until this day he still mentions her and misses his friends.

We are incredibly grateful for everything she done for us over the last two years, and we will always look back on this period with appreciation. Any family would be lucky to have her care for their child.
