Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 20 reviews)

Melina has been looking after my daughter for the past two years or so and she has been just wonderful. My daughter loves going to ‘aunty’ (as she calls her ) because she feels safe and happy with her.
She’s truly dedicated to her children and their wellbeing is her priority.
My daughter speech and overall development has improved immensely. She become more independent and knowledgeable. I’m certain she is more than ready to start her reception year in September.
I truly recommend Melina and her childcare setting to any parent who needs a little extra help with their child care.

Melina has looked after our eldest daughter for 3.5 years and our youngest since she was 6 months old. I could not recommend Melina and her assistant enough to anyone needing childcare. Our children have flourished in this setting academically, physically and socially, however, what we love the most about sending our daughters here is how much they love Melina and how well she cares for them. They look forward to attending every morning and are always excited to tell us about the wonderful activities they do every day. The girls know her as family and we are so incredibly grateful for the love and support our children have received in the years they’ve spent here.

Melina has looked after my boy (2 and a half) for over a year now. He absolutely adores her and she treats him like one of her own. I receive regular feedback and progress reports and I am updated with pictures and notes daily. Melina works so well with us as a family and helped through potty training. My son really enjoys his time here and is progressing really well. We are so lucky to have you!

We are so blessed to have your cute boy and lovely family. We continue to do our best. Thank you for your nice comments.

I can`t praise Melina and her team enough. She is professional, kind and caring - not to mention very experienced. I`m amazed how well my 16 months old daughter is developing in her care. She made the settling in process easy, my daughter loves going to `auntie` since week 2. I love that I can have a piece of mind that my baby is well cared for, she is in a clean, safe environment. She always leaves with a big smile on her face and that`s the most important thing!

We are so blessed to have your little sweet and clever baby. Thank you

Melina looks after my 3 year old boy. He wasn't potty trained and his speech and vocabulary weren't great as he was looked after by nanny for the past 3 years. Melina has helped developed his speech and vocabulary. He also knows numbers and nursery rhymes after few months with her. Melina teaches him discipline and routines as well, she regularly communicates with us regarding his development and improvement. Although she has children in the house, it seems that you receive individualised one to one care as she knows each child by heart.

I would highly recommend Melina as your childminder!

We all missed you and your child. Wish him all the best.

I have been using Melina for just over 7 years, my 7 year old son joined Melina at 8 months old, he was born 2 months premature and I was extremely worried about leaving him and returning to work. Melina put me at ease and my son settled in immediately. I could go to work and not have to worry at all. My son has been going to Melina's full time and when he started nursery and school she now does my school drop off/pick ups and knows most of the parents and teachers at St. URSULAS Infant & Junior school. My son is so happy when he is there, he enjoys and loves being at Melina's. She is amazing with teaching the early years curriculum and sets out topics throughout the year. My son is confident and very social and I believe thats all down to Melina.

I now have a 2 year old, and he also attends Melina's full time, since 8 months old.

She is very clean and disinfects her setting regularly.

I would not hesitate to recommend her, she has become part of my family and she is in one word AMAZING! (all the children love her) I would be lost without her.

My sweet memories belong to you and your boys.

Melina has been looking after my two boys (2 +3) for a year now and we truly couldn't be happier with her service. It's the perfect combination of a home from home service with all the structure and learning benefits of a nursery. From potty training to teaching the Phonics Melina has really done it all

Thank you Lara
Your boys are lovely and I am proud to look after them.

Melina offers great care, lessons and playtime to my kids (5) & (3).
She communicates on time, keeping me up to date with all developments when necessary. I always get photos as well which is great as I love knowing what the kids are up to during their day (and these photos will be great memories for when they grow up :) ). She is flexible and greatly accomodates my needs.
Thanks Melina for looking after my kids for the past 1 year.
We look forward to many years to come. xx

Dear Vicky
Thank you for your comments.
I have been lucky to look after your boys.

Melina took on my daughter during lockdown at short notice as my normal childminder could not continue. My daughter who is 1, settled quickly with Melina and is really happy there. Melina is very loving and warm and my daughter happily does drop off. Melina does lots of activities and keeps me updated with photos. Her home is spotless and she has a great range of toys and a large garden for both inside and outside play. We will miss her!

Thank you Fin for your kind Review.
It was such a privilege and pleasure to have your daughter and you and your family for that short time.
Wish you all the best
Miss you all

Melina has looked after my son Jacob for almost 3 years. She is absolutely amazing. She takes great care of the children, teaching them so many skills, games, songs, dances etc. Jacob displayed a confidence he had not had before within days of being with Melina. All the kids love her and affectionately call her Aunty. The children are fed a balanced diet and even my son, previously a vegetable hater, absolutely loves them. Melina is willing to adust her availability to meet parents needs and has come through when I need emergency child care. She is worth more than gold.
