Tots is a very good place for childcare needs. Tidy and professional. I get picture updates regularly on my daughters activities. My daughter is always looking forward to her day there.

Sahira has been excellent with my little girl, who comes home with new songs and words all the time. I get photo updates throughout the day and I trust that she is in safe hands with her.

Sahira was very professional and caring with my son from day one. She sent me updates and videos throughout the day to show how he was getting on which made me feel assured that he was in good hands. My two year old learned alot during his time with Sahira and I feel like it helped towards his development. Highly recommended.

She is very careless with children and she let them share cups and my children comes back home with their water bottles full the way I send it.
She's also very selfish she change days for weddings and Court appointments when she wants to but when I ask her to change days because I have appointments she refuse and act very rude.

When I moved to Glasgow from Kenya I was worried about finding a great childminder for my 2 year old and since we started with her we haven't left. I love that she offers a wide array of activities for my little one and she communicates about any noticeable changes with the my child, this gives me the assurance that my child is well taken care of and I worry less.

Sahira Aslam is a very caring, reliable and professional woman.
Both my sons went to Sahira’s for about 2 years.
She is very organised, patient and friendly.
Her house is welcoming, warm and very clean.
She has a bright, colourful garden, fitted with slides, trampoline, and varied other toys for the different age groups.
Sahira looked after my sons when I was undergoing training and the shift pattern made it impossible to find suitable childcare. My boys were in a primary school that had breakfast club and after school care but my timetable could not allow me to use their facilities.
I would drop them very early in the morning and did not have to worry about pick up time.
I managed to complete my training, and I know I owe it to Sahira. Knowing my boys were in good hands was very reassuring.
She would keep me updated throughout the day by sending me pictures.
I can honestly say that Sahira is an amazing childminder and would100% recommend her services.

By the first time my boy saw and met Sahira, he has immediately got along with her. For the first day, he came into nicely without asking mommy. Sahira is such a caring and lovely childminder. She got me updated whole day with lovely pics and clips of Harvey.
I would highly recommend her childminding services
