My Summary
Registered Childminder Providing Day Childcare, Pick-Ups And Drop-Offs And Occasional/Emergency Care
About Me
Hello/Hola!
My name is Temitope. I am a mother of 4, an Ofsted registered childminder and I consider myself a caring and empathetic individual. Here at Mama Mia Bilingual Childminding Services, I aim to provide a caring and safe environment with the goal of "providing childcare services with a difference". I have a deep understanding of the early years learning and development. As I speak both English and Spanish, I aim to incorporate activities in both languages for your children, hence providing a bilingual environment. I have experience working as a children's church teacher for over 10 years and I enjoy working with them.
My Experience
As a mother of four, I have been able to see my children's different stages of development and this has helped me in my experience in childcare. Also, by working as a children's church teacher for over a decade, I have been able to look after children of different ages and stages and through this experience, I understand that children thrive if they are loved and have their needs met. I enjoy being around them and this has driven me into becoming a childminder.

I am a qualified Ofsted registered childminder with the following qualification and training:
NCFE CACHE LEVEL 3 - Award in preparing to work in home-based childcare
Introduction to the role of a childminder

She will always keep me updated and sends photos documenting my little ones day which always make me smile. my little one only started just over a month ago and mama mia has taught him so much already. Shes helping me so much with toilet training and will always take the time to give advice and is always cheering him on. She's very accommodating and understanding.
She is such a kind hearted woman and I am so thankful!

Thank you for the review.
Your son is a wonderful boy and I'm glad to have him in my setting.
God bless you and your family in Jesus precious name.
Words cannot express how I feel about this childminder. The way she treats my children is simply out of this world. She genuinely cares for my children. They come home and tell me how they have had great fun, play and the manners and values she has taught my children is something worth noting. She is a person-centred childminder who treats every child in a unique way and make sure they become the best they can be for the society. A case of where my children are crying because I have come to pick them up as they are having fun. Lol. I see my children picking up manners every parent would love to see in their children. A trial will truly convince you. Temi is so loving, caring, humble and godly and this is what makes the difference. Thank you Temi for everything. Truly a clean and fun home away from home!!!

Mama Mia childminding services are the very best I have ever come across . She is excellent with my son and he loved attending from the minute he stepped foot in the door , she is warm welcoming and provides an excellent service . She even accommodates picking up and dropping off my son , he goes out at least 2 times a week and has progressed so much in such a small space of time and I couldn’t be happier with the level of care he receives. She really does put her all into this job as it is much more than a job for her , even when he was off sick she took her time out to come and visit him at home and check on him and that means so much to me and my family of how valued he is not just by temi but her whole family .

Thank you so much for the review.
Your child's wellbeing is our priority.
I can’t recommend enough! My son was a pandemic baby and also lives far from relatives so he has only ever been with his mother and father - being a clingy, shy child I was apprehensive to send him to nursery as he hated being away from us but wow! From day 1 my son has been perfectly fine there, in the mornings I say “are you ready to go?” and he’s already waiting at the door with his bag! Not only is the environment friendly and loving, him attending has also knocked his speech up so well so fast. He is now speaking so much, where before he had input from speech and language therapists and now he is getting to where he needs to be. His improvement since starting has been remarkable and him being my first child and not knowing what to expect, it brings me pleasure to know that he is happy and safe here. I am so pleased of how far he is coming along now I’m so proud of him thanks to Temi. Furthermore the pictures and video/updates being sent to me really help me feel better about truly seeing how well taken care of he is.

Thank you so much for the review. Your son is a lovely boy to work with.
At Mama Mia, the children's wellbeing is our priority.
My Daughter has been going to Mama Mia’s since September and she absolutely loves it. We are greeted with warm welcomes every morning and nothing is too much trouble!
I am kept informed through text messages and phone calls when needed. She offers a range of breakfast and asked me personally what my daughter likes to eat. I feel my daughter is in very safe hands and enjoys going for school drop off every morning.
Highly recommended!!!
