Zahida has been an exceptional childminder for my son. From the moment we started, I could tell that he was in good hands. He absolutely loves going to her place, and it warms my heart to see how excited he is each morning!
Zahida puts a lot of thought into planning activities that are both fun and educational, which keeps my son engaged and happy throughout the day. It's clear that she takes the time to tailor these activities to the children's interests, and they always seem to enjoy them.
One of the standout features of Zahida's childminding service is the delicious home-cooked meals she provides. Knowing that my son is eating healthy, nutritious food while he's there is a huge relief for me as a parent. Zahida is also very accommodating when it comes to last-minute requests, whether it’s dietary preferences or a specific activity he might be interested in. Zahida is also flexible with timings.
Overall, Zahida has created a warm, nurturing environment where Ishaq thrives. I highly recommend her to any parent looking for a dedicated and caring childminder!

Zaida provides me with before and after school pick ups for my two children. She is very warm and welcoming and puts the children at ease very quickly. My children are always happy to see her and am I’m very confident that the children are in safe hands. Zaida puts the children’s safety as a priority and provides car seats appropriate to the child’s age, and always holds there hands while walking. Zaida is always on time, and is also flexible when normal routines are changed for example, sports day, parents evening, or an emergency. She is always contactable and will give her time to help in any way she can. I am completely confident the children are in great hands and I do not need to worry about them at all. Zaida is a fantastic child minder and I highly recommend her service.

Zaida, well where do I start. I am a very anxious mother who has the one child child only. Zaida has been nothing but amazing. As a single working parent, Zaida has gone above and beyond to show care and provide her services when she can to us. She has become part of the family. My son loves going to her house. I don't ever have to worry whilst at work (that's a huge thing). Her communication skills are immense. She always sends piks, and a text everyday to let me know how he's gone. Honestly as a parent I really wouldn't know what I'd do without her. Get her booking , she's nothing but amazing,clean, caring,helpful, loving and so kind.
