It’s been years of my child being in secondary school and we still miss Dagmara. She was the most wonderful part of my child’s school life. I had to drag him home as he didn’t want to leave. We could not drive past her house without him wanting to stop and get out of the car. Loving, responsible, dependable, knowledgeable and so very engaged with our child. If you are looking for a childminder who is part of the family, you can’t go wrong with dagmara!!

Dagmara is a great and professional childminder. She very kindly agreed to look after our son as an emergency cover for a couple of weeks and at first we were nervous that our son will find it difficult to settle in but there was no need! He loved Dagmara from the first moment he met her and had a great time with lots of activities and days out. We are very thankful to Dagmara for her help.

Thank you so much for your kind review ❤️ Dominic was an absolute pleasure to look after!
Hope to see you around x
We were looking for 2 weeks childminder's cover for our 2 y.o. daughter. When we met Dagmara, we sensed she was a right person and we can trust her. All documents have been provided and up to date. Her place is clean and neat, you can see a lot of stuff for child development and progression. Dagmara focuses on being out with kids a lot, and I like that, but have a concern if my little one will manage it. However, in two weeks our child fully transferred to walking by herself and for very long distances. She visited so many places (parks, zoo, farm) and only in 2 weeks. Our child became more calmer at home (as spent a lot of energy outside with Dagmara). We will definitely recommend her as a childminder and we will back to her again when required.

Thank you so much for your kind words ❤️It was a pleasure to be able to help you, your daughter is delightful and will be truly missed!
Hope to see you around 😊
She is very experienced, has a natural talent and empathy with children and has put a great deal of effort into developing her skills with a wide range of training courses.
She is very good at noticing which toys and activities he enjoys and lets me know.
She is very observant about his development and good at keeping me informed. She really understands each child's individual needs and treats them all as if they were her own, with love and care. I'm more than happy to recommend Daga to anybody. ❤️❤️❤️

Thank you Malwina, it is a pleasure to be able to help. See you soon 😘
Dagmara is the best childminder we could have. She looked after our daughter Helena since she was one year old. Helena absolutely love Dagmara and her house. Always had a great time in the group, because Dagmara truly like her job. She is well organised, cooking fresh homemade meals everyday and keeping eyes on children safety. Thank you very much Dagmara for your hard work.
