Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 20 reviews)

She’s looked after my daughters since my eldest was 6 months old, then her younger sisters as soon as they were old enough to attend. All three of them have walked through the doors of Ilona’s without even a glance back to say goodbye so excited to see their friends and have a fun day.
She’s been flexible and reasonable in hours, holidays, informative, cared in their development and been an incredible childminder and early years provider.
I will miss her incredibly and thank you for all your help over the years.

Thank you for your kind words. I'm going to miss you all too. Over the years, you have become a part of us. And the children and their smiles when I open tej door make my day better.

I wish you a new happy memories in new place ❤️❤️❤️

Ilona and her team have been amazing taking care of my toddler since he was around 4-5 months old. Every morning, he greets her with a big smile because he really loves being there. He's developed so well, especially his motor skills, by doing fun activities with the other children. Before choosing Little Feet, I checked out a few other places, but the staff didn't seem as passionate and friendly as Ilona. It's also reassuring to know that she can babysit for us outside of regular hours and even put the kids to bed if we're coming home late. My hubby and I are very pleased to have Ilona as our childminder.

Thank you from my heart for your trust and for your warm words. These words mean a lot to me ❤️❤️❤️.

Ilon is looking after my daughter since this year May and I can not be more happy with her. Always inform me with my daughter’s progress. My daughter had always problem with drinking milk from the bottle and it was hard for us as she wasn’t drinking enough. She helped us immediately when we told her about this. Now Our daughter enjoys drinking milk.
Thank you Ilona

My 16 month old daughter has been coming to Ilona for 6 months now and I have had a really pleasant experience from the very beginning. Ilona and her assistants are really passionate about the kids in their setting, they are super attentive with all of the kids and focus their time and efforts to best target progress needed with the child.

In the beginning of my daughter attending Ilona’s setting we were worried about some of the progress she had made based on her age. Ilona was super informative and worked along with us to help our daughter reach certain milestones she was struggling to reach.

My daughter is has been extremely happy in the setting and can’t recommend Ilona enough.

Many thanks

Thank you for your recommendations and trust. ❤️❤️❤️

Our daughter has been with Ilona and her assistants for about 3 year now and we can't recommend them highly enough.

Every morning my daughter with a smile ran to Ilona and hugged her. That's why I knew I was leaving it imy daughter in good hands.

It's clear they are experts in their profession and have taught our daughter many important life skills such as how to slide safely (backwards on his tummy) and how to go down stairs safely (on his bottom). How to behave on the street. Ilona teach my daughter a very important life behaviour :
-not to run into the street ( I love her Garden activity, When the children pretended to cross the road. And we love 'the trafick light' ( wchich looks so real) when children was practice behavior on the street).
-Well prepared my daughter for reception.
- teach manners
-How not to be shay and approach a group of children (I am a very shy person. I see my daughter is braver than I am.)
-Excellent prepared my daughter for reception
- yummy food ( my doughther said)

They are versatile and plan their days around the children's needs and ensure they have plenty of time to rest if needed and are good at ensuring they get adequate sleep opportunities according to their age.
We really like that there are mix age group of children, this as it means there are more children for our daughther to socialise with and it offers the feel of a 'mini nursery' whilst still being very personal and homely.

They send photos and videos daily so you can really feel a part of your child's day and are excellent at communication. They are very genuine in their love and support for their children and are all very kind and friendly people. Our daugter is so excited to see them and speaks so happily of his time there and that makes us very happy too!

Ilona with her professional advice helped us in many situations. She understands how to help a child when he is not developing well.

Ilona, thank you for these years and for helping us raise our daughter.
Like you said, you are like an aunt to her. ❤️

We will miss you ❤️

With all my heart thank you for your long and honest feedback. ♥️♥️♥️

Ilona has been taking care of my 4 year old son whilst I work since 2018. During this time I have been more than delighted with the service that Ilona provides. She always keeps me updates throughout the day with photos, etc. My son eats a wide variety of foods whilst with Ilona and he eats better (in terms of eating ALL of his food) there than he does at home! I love how well informed she keeps me. I also get regular updates on key observations and how they relate to his development.
Pippa is very experienced as she has been childminding for many years and has children of her own. If you are ever unsure on anything (whether it be funding options or how to tackle issues you are having with your little one) she will usually be able to advise or point you in the right direction, and will always be honest with you.
Ilona's home and garden are very well equipped for children and are always clean and tidy. There are plenty of fun and educational toys and activities for the children to engage with.
My son settled in well very quickly with Ilona, and I have had no problems with ‘handing him over’ in the mornings. He is happy to go to Ilona and her assidtant and just takes himself straight off into the huge play room as soon as we get there.
My son absolutely adores Ilona and hear team and gets very excited in the morning when I tell him he is going to see her. His speech has come along a lot since being with Ilona as well as his confidence! He is a very active child and Iloma always manages to keep him well entertained and wear him out with fun activities!
I would definitely recommend Little Feet as a reliable and trustworthy childminder, who will make any child and parent feel at ease with her care.

I had visited a number of childminder and nurseries in the area when I stumbled across Ilona at Little Feet. Best decision I ever made for me and my daughter. She has been with Ilona just over 3 years.
Ilona and her team are wonderful and caring and it’s so lovely to see as a parent how happy my daughter is there. Ilona is flexible and approachable and has helped me out on many occasions when I have needed last minute or urgent childcare.
My daughter is already very well prepared for school - and all this thanks to Ilona and her team.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Ilona and Little Feet to anyone looking.

My children really loves Ilona’s setting. ❤️

They speaks about Ilona and her assistant often at home and asks to go and see them on her days off. My childrem made really good friends with the other children in all age group, which is really lovely to see. I can say that Ilona is such a profesional childcares. She treats my children with love and care.

Ilona updates me regularly with pictures & messages. They do really fun activities too! They are very accommodating and will do all she can to help. It’s been a really great experience and a god send for our family. Would recommend Ilona’s setting to anyone.

Thank you for everything ♥

Our daughter went to Ilona's from 1 year old to 3.5 year old. The idea of trusting someone with our daughter's safety was very daunting to my husband and myself when I had to go back to work. We visited many childminders and nurseries. Ilona was the only one we really liked, and Ilona is the only adult our daughter went to spontaneously, which was a good sign. Her setting is a good balance between a childminder and a nursery. I do not know many childminders who take up to 10 children. I liked this in-between as I felt it was a homely setting when my daughter was still very young, and at the same time she could learn to socialise with other children and follow a nursery routine. Having 3 adults also meant there was extra safety and flexibility.
Ilona and her assistants have always been friendly, good communicators, and supportive. It is so obvious that they really care about the children they look after.
Our daughter has just moved to pre-school and she seems so much more advanced when it comes to communication, politeness, following instructions and being independent. Some of the credit definitively goes to Ilona and her team for always finding the right balance between stimulation, care and discipline.
I cannot recommend enough Ilona's setting. Finding her definitively made my return to work less painful knowing my daughter was well looked after, and would get a cuddle if she needed one.
