Average Rating: 4.91 stars (4.91 from 11 reviews)

Our daughter G started in Neelofer's care in March 2022, prior to G starting Neelofer undertook a thorough settling in process including short sessions at her setting and a home visit. From the first time I met Neelofer she demonstrated that she was a high quality provider of childcare as she shows genuine care and interest in G, viewing her as a unique child.

Under Neelofer’s care G has flourished. Neelofer offers G the opportunity to learn and develop within an enabling environment with strong teaching, care and support. When G started she could say ‘Mummy & Daddy’ only. G now has a vast vocabulary which Neelofer has been key in developing. Neelofer ensures that G’s communication and language skills are developing. Neelofer reads regularly with G, she has recommended that we read 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?' at home with G to further support her learning, therefore offering a joined up approach between home and the childminder. G has started to show basic understand of mathematics, she will repeat numbers and has started to repeat number sequences. I have attended playgroups with Neelofer (attending with my younger child) and I have seen Neelofer encouraging the children to count and helping them in a supportive manner. Neelofer also sends us progress and activity updates regularly, which are detailed and very helpful in terms of joining up the childminding activities and our development work at home.

G has grown considerably in confidence since starting with Neelofer. Prior to starting G was very shy and reluctant to get involved in activities or with other children. G preffered watching others play. Over the past year G has grown in confidence, she is now happy to get involved in activities and has good friendships with the other children in the setting. Neelofer facilitates positive relationships, which has been crucial for G’s social development.

G has enjoyed a wide variety of opportunities to understand the world with Neelofer, she attends Rhymetime at the local library, Reigate Baptist Church & Gaters playgroup. Along with trips to the park, walks to feed the ducks and a trip to the farm a few weeks ago. As I am on maternity leave and have a younger daughter (not yet in Neelofer's care), I have attended groups at the same time as Neelofer and the other children. I have witnessed her encouraging the children to take part in activites, the children listen to her instructions and enjoy their time with her. Neelofer encourages G to be expressive with arts and design, G comes home most days with art work or creative items, often linked to current themes such as; Christmas, Mothers Day, Ramadan and Easter. G is now able to hold a pen, regularly using the tripod grip.

Neelofer encourages G everyday to make progress and reach her full potential. We are very happy with the level of care, support, learning and development that G receives whilst in Neelofer's care. We plan to send our second daughter to Neelofer when I return to work.

Neelofar has been looking after our son for almost 2 years and she is by far the most brilliant child minder we have ever had. She came highly recommended and she has certainly lived up to this recommendation. She has a nice and cosy house with lots of toys and educational activities. She always makes a plan for the day up front which involves a wide range of activities that my son loves. She takes my son to local playgroups, farms, parks, libraries and many other places that keeps our child stimulated. Neelofar also provides us a detailed daily diary which gives us a great summary of the activities they have been doing. My son is about to join the school now and Neelofar has worked very hard to prepare him for it.
My son simply adores Neelofar. I wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!

Neelofer has looked after my daughter for over a year and she is a fantastic childminder. The activities planned for the children are fun and engaging and my daughter has learnt so much; her confidence has also improved. Neelofer’s setting is fantastic - lots of toys for the children to play with and excellent craft and cooking activities. I can not recommend Neelofer enough - a great childminder!

Neelofer is very professional and that means very kind and motherly with the children: security is key, learning is important with many many games. She looks after both our sons after school and they always go happily, playing very well, eating well and reading / counting / writing as needed. I highly recommend her!

The best I have found for my son who loves her so much. I have seen lot of improvement in my child especially his interest in reading and learning. Doing things independently. He loves books and library so much now. Very good teacher as well. She updates daily activities with the child. Cooks and serves all organic and healthy food. Does variety of activities for child development. Very flexible and accommodates as per our requirement. I have recommended her in the past and will highly recommend her if you are looking for a childminder.

My daughter has been cared for by Neelofer for more than a year and she's progressed very well. She is happy every time she goes to her childminder. Neelofer is committed to her job, she is caring and the children are involved in many different activities which they enjoy. Neelofer is flexible with her hours, which helps when i'm finishing late and overall i'm very pleased with her and i can recommend her to others.

Our daughter has been going to Neelofar since she was 2.5 years old. Neelofar was amazing in getting our daughter settled and also made time to reassure us that all was well. Neelofar provides a home away from home environment for the children and has a nurturing manner about her. Our daughter has progressed extremely well with Neelofar. Neelofar is extremely flexible and has been able to care for our daughter at short notice due to our work commitments. Neelofar strives to prepare our daughter academically so that she is ready for school. Neelofar is also happy to provide advice and guidance if you are experiencing any difficulties/changes that occur naturally with children. She is highly motivated and provides a consistent high level of care offering varied activities that are both interesting and educational for our daughter. We would not hesitate to recommend Neelofar as a child minder.

I'm very pleased with the service Neelofer provides, she is very professional and my children love her. My son has a bad eczema and is allergic to an awful lots of things such as dairy, nuts, eggs, fish....just to name a few, Neelofer has adapted his care around his needs and nutrition very well. She helps them with their homework too. I do shift work and sometimes finish very late at night (as late as after midnight), Neelofer provides them with accommodation till I pick them. She is never bothered by my shift work.

Neelofer is an excellent carer. My children felt very comfortable with her from our initial visit. She helped me out at short notice and was very accommodating to my requirements.

I would definitely use her again.
