My daughter thoroughly enjoyed attending Ilona's place for 3.5 years until her 'graduation' as she entered Reception. I was always confident that she was well taken care of and loved. It has been like a second home for her, and we are very grateful for all the efforts made by Ilona and her team.

Illona and her team have looked after our little boy since he was 7 months old and now he’s coming up 3. They’ve been such an amazing support and help to us and our boy absolutely loves it there! It’s such a warm, happy environment where children are supported to learn, play and develop. We’re so grateful for all they’ve done and honestly can’t imagine life without them. Illona is so organised and responsive to any queries we have. It’s such a delight getting his progress report each term to see all the varied activities he’s been up to. Could not recommend them highly enough.

Ilona and the team are truly outstanding. My little boy is very attached to me and I was worried him starting childminders full-time. He settled in so quickly and is very happy every time he goes to childminders. He doesn't event look at me when I drop him and just wants to go inside. All ladies are truly amazing and professional. I love the daily reports we receive. We also notice how well our little boy develops and learns new things there. I cannot recommend Ilona and her team highly enough and I'm truly grateful for them looking after our son so well.

Finding childcare was a huge stress for us. The second we meant Ilona and saw her incredible setting we knew we’d found the right place for our daughter! We weren’t wrong. Our daughter has been at Ilona’s since she was 11m (now 2!) she literally adores Ilona, Natalija & Olah - and talks about them and her friends all the time. Her development has also been amazing thanks to the brilliant learning Ilona provides. We couldn’t be happier, nor could our daughter!

Our daughter has been with Ilona and her team since she was 7 months old (she is now 2) and is absolutely delighted when the door opens each morning and she can run inside to play. The variety of activities is excellent, food is home cooked, the children are taught to be kind to each other, and crucially the atmosphere is happy and loving. It is such a relief to know she is so well looked-after each day. Thank you Ilona! ❤️

Could not recommend Ilona’s setting enough!

Lovely nursery feel, big gorgeous garden, lots of daily activities, variety of food each day.

Ilona and her helpers put so much love into what they do. My little girl has been with them since she was one, and about 10 months later she shocked us by singing the whole alphabet song by herself and now she counts until 20 (on and off).

I admire how they manage to combine all the fun and all the learning for the little kiddos. I also know that other parents (and kids) are very happy.

Highly recommend Ilona to all the families who are looking for help and space for their kids to grow, have fun and learn.

IIona and her fellow teachers does an amazing job! My son enjoys going to school everyday. He looks forward to seeing his friends, learning new songs and getting involved in all the fun filled activities. He has developed tremendously. He loves to sing, dance, play and they also helped him with potty training. I’m so happy and proud of him. Worth every penny spend on childcare, no regrets! Anyone looking for childcare, please contact IIona from fun explorers childcare without hesitation.

My son Adrian started at Ilona’s when he was 1-years-old and I couldn’t be more happy to recommend Ilona and her lovely helpers Natasha and Marina. Ilona’s house is very spacious and safe, big garden for kids to enjoy, great facilities! Ilona is a very nice person to deal with, her approach towards childcare is flexible, entertaining, open-minded, knowledgeable and safe. Adrian absolutely loved going there for almost 3 years, he was well entertained, learned a lot, I felt very happy to leave him under Ilona’s care without any worries knowing he is in a good company and safe. It’s very sad that we have to move on now with Adrian but my younger son will go to Ilona soon and I can’t be more happy to go back!
Can’t recommend enough!

We started sending Jeronimo when he was 1.5 years old. He’s now 3,5 and he’s about to start nursery in September.
Ilona and her team has not only taken care of J with love and patience , but also they’ve taught loads of things. He will always come back home singing or talking about what he has learned that day or even about their day out to the play park. Ilona will also provide us a learning folder with feedback of his development and full of photos of Jeronimo.
Regarding The setting, I would say it’s always very clean, tidy and very well organised. Jeronimo loved Ilona’s soup and he will come back home asking me to give him some. Ilona has a weekly schedule with a variety of food for the children.
I would describe Ilona’s place as a small nursery, where your little one will be look after personally.
We are a Spanish speaking family, and our little one is more fluent in English than in his mother tongue.
I’m sure J is ready for his next age at school and I will always be thankful to Ilona for this.
We will miss you Ilona, Tonya and Natalia, you’ve been amazing over these years not only with Jeronimo but also to us!!
