Amazing childminders!

My son joined Indrani and KC when he was 10 months old and we left when he was 2 as we moved out of London (otherwise we would still be there!). Initially we had hoped to put our son in a nursery but missed registration cut offs; but in retrospect, sending him to Indrani was the best decision we could have made. We didn't realise how lucky we were at the time to be accepted into such an outstanding setting! Firstly the house and facilities are absolutely fantastic - from a completely dedicated playroom, to a massive garden filled with swings, slides, trampoline, splash pools in summer - there is enough space for the kids to run around and stay entertained for hours. We loved that there is room for up to 8 children and that they are all varying ages and can inspire and help each other out. KC and Indrani were phenomenal in their efforts to celebrate all occassions and teach the children about different cultures and holidays. From celebrating Diwali to Chinese New Year, crazy dress up halloween parties, Christmas feasts and birthday celebrations - there was always something going on and they put so much effort into all the occasions!
I especially loved the closeness between my son and KC and Indrani - you could see they were truly interested and invested in him and shared so many delightful stories of what had happened during the day, what he had learnt, who he had played with. One of my favourite aspects was their effective communication. They responded quickly throughout the day and sent regular photos and videos (which I now miss greatly now that my son is at a nursery school). They even sent me a video of my little one taking his first steps!
Before lockdown, they would regularly take the children out to the library and play groups and they even had outings to a farm which my son absolutely loved! They made a lasting impression as my son still runs around shouting "Drani Drani" and points to them and smiles when i show him videos from when he was there.
I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that we struck gold when we chose Indrani and KC, i couldn't have been happier and more at peace with my choice of childcare setting and my only regret is that we live too far away for my future children to go there too!
