Madhu looked after my son when he was one for an 11 month period, and I can honestly say it was the best decision we made.
From day one, our son formed a strong bond with Madhu. He always had the biggest smile when Madhu opened the door in the morning, and often tears when it was time to go home, as he always wanted to stay longer!
Madhu’s nurturing, thoughtful approach helped him come out of his shell more than I could have imagined. Madhu would take him for daily walks, take him to the park whenever possible and continuously worked on improving his communication/language and motor skills, always with warmth and patience.
Madhu’s communication was faultless. We often received videos and pictures of what he got up to during the day, before and after meal pictures so we could see what he had eaten that day, timings of when he slept etc. Madhu always followed our approach to sleep and routine too, which we appreciated immensely.
Our son was cared for by Madhu for full days, 3x a week, and on two separate occasions when we needed care urgently, Madhu had offered to look after him overnight. Knowing he was in such good hands was something I will always be grateful for.
Our son flourished while he was in Madhu’s care and is now a talkative, cheeky, kind-hearted boy. I’m so grateful we chose Madhu to care for our son, and would repeat our time with her in a heartbeat if we could.

Madhuri has provided us with the care and home from home we were looking for for our little boy Axel. .
He blossomed in her care, his fine motor skills improved dramatically and Madhuri did an amazing job getting him ready for reception.
She cooked daily for him, and his feeding habits became much healthier and varied. He spent long hours with Madhuri and yet was always sad to leave her to go back home! Madhuri is extremely reliable, she communicates very effectively and created a bond not only with Axel, who still visits her from time to time a year later, but with us too. She was the perfect balance between a mother figure and a teacher. As a teacher myself, and a head of year, I know the effects ineffective childcare can have on a child development. And I can honestly say that even after moving to another town, if I ever needed a childminder again she would be my first choice.
Axel went from a shy, introverted boy who hates formal learning, to a thriving little boy who received his first certificate for reading 75 books by March of this year. I have no doubt in my mind that Madhuri set the foundations for a positive start to school for him.

My little boy LOVES Madhu, and loved the time he spent with her. He started there at 11 months and very quickly settled. The only reason he stopped going after 10 months was because we moved. He ate good, healthy meals that she cooked him and learned lots. He loved interacting with the other children there, and had a lovely safe space to play in. They went out regularly and we were always kept up to date with what was happening. When I started back at work I got plenty of photos and videos which were very reassuring. Madhu has fantastic experience with children, and managed my strong-willed little boy very well. She is flexible and friendly, and feels like and extended part of our family. She genuinely cares about my son, and family. I wish we could have packed her in with us when we moved!

My two children daughter 2.5 years and my son 6 months old looked after by Madhuri and she was a very caring and loving childminder. I would truly recommend her and she was like an family member for my children. My kids loved her so much and they really missed her. Her place was very clean with high standards of cleanliness
