We couldn’t be happier with Layla’s setting. Layla, Emma and Annie are incredibly welcoming and warm and we feel so lucky to have found them for our 20 month old twin girls.
Always quick to send photos and communication has been easy, making us feel so reassured! The girls seem to eat like horses and we love to hear about the different meals that they’re eating.
Layla’s home also has the largest most perfect garden we’ve ever seen and arguably better than most of the local parks.

My daughter has only been with Layla and her team for a short time, however they have been fantastic.
They made my daughter feel very welcome, and she settled in to a routine very easily with them. They offer a wide range of activities which my daughter has enjoyed.
The setting is wonderful, very spacious and allows the children to engage with a variety of different activities due to the amount of space available.
The setting is also well maintained, clean and very welcoming.
Layla and her team are fantastic and can not fault.

Layla (Emma and Annie) are an outstanding team of childminders.
My son started with them in Sept 2019, when he started at primary school. Since day one they have been so reassuring and loving toward my son and us as parents. They genuinely care for all their children.
Everything is so well organised and thought through. My son cannot wait to return when the world is in a more normal state.
I could not recommend them more highly, I’m very glad we found them, and our son will have the pleasure of being with them for the next 6 years.

My 2 year twin boys started with Layla 3 months ago and I am so happy we found them. They are so caring and passionate about children and you can feel the warmth and love they have as soon as you walk in. The house is immaculate and the grounds are incredible and back onto allotments so the children are growing and picking fruit and vegetables
Layla works with her daughter Emma and they are a great childminding team. There is lots of structure to the day with a variety of activities but they also have lots of time for free play. I also like the fact that often they will stay at home and play in the garden or do activities indoors rather than being rushed out all the time, but there are also plenty of educational and fun outings, so far they have been to the seaside, Knole park, Kent life Beaver World and various other locations.
Layla provides delicious home cooked and nutritional food and snacks throughout the day which the boys love.
Would highly recommend.

Overall
We have had our 2.5 year old daughter, Chloe with Layla, and her daughter Emma for the last six months - they have been brilliant. Chloe has loved going there, and misses them already. We have had to move her elsewhere due to a change in our job pattern, and were very sad to leave. They cook excellent nutritious food for the kids, with a good veggie option always available, and ensured the kids are out daily at various activities. We recommend them wholeheartedly.
