Good
12 October 2022
A warm and nurturing environment awaits children at this childminding setting, where development and communication skills are well supported. Children benefit from a range of activities, nutritious meals, and daily outdoor play. The childminder works well with parents and provides opportunities for children to gradually adjust to the setting. While the overall rating is 'Good', there is room for improvement in attending more focused training and providing better support for parents to continue learning at home.

We just wanted to say a heartfelt thank to Padma for the incredible care, love, patience, kindness and attention you’ve given to our child. It truly feels like we’re leaving our child with a trusted family member—not just a caregiver—and that peace of mind is something we can never thank you enough for.

The way you’ve cared for makes us feel so safe and supported. Especially during a tough time for our family, your help and kindness meant more than words can express. You stepped in with such calm, warmth, and consistency—and we will always be grateful for that.

Your attention to detail, the way you engage and nurture, and the love you clearly show every day have not gone unnoticed. We've seen such happiness and growth in my child, and a large part of that is thanks to you.

We’re so grateful for the peace of mind you've given us, and for the positive, supportive environment you've created. You’ve truly made a difference in our family’s life.

Padmaa created the perfect environment for our son. She provided exactly the kind of introduction to child care that we wanted for him. A caring home environment where he felt safe. He quickly felt at home with her and we knew he was being well looked after. Thank you for everything Padmaa!
