My Summary
About Me
I am an Ofsted registered childminder who has recently achieved an 'OUTSTANDING' rating on my inspection.
With seven years of experience in childminding, I have cared for children ranging from 5 months to 10 years old. I possess all the necessary qualifications and certifications, which are regularly updated.
I attend daily, playgrounds with my minded children, as well as going to libraries, local parks, Kew garden, Magic garden, farm and museums.
I am lucky enough to have lots of local parks very close to my location.
Engaging the children in various activities like cooking, arts and crafts, and building with construction toys is a regular part of our routine.
Following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) guidelines, I track the children's progress through observations and assessments, ensuring their development is nurtured. My goal is to provide a warm, safe, clean, and educational environment filled with care, fun, and happiness. I have a wide range of toys available, and my property includes a secure garden where the children can play.
My services are available from Monday to Thursday, starting from 7:30 am until 6:00 pm.

Soodi and her team have been looking after our sons (3 and 18 months) for 7 months now and they are just amazing - we’re so happy we found them! The boys love going to Soodi’s and have so much fun there. Soodi comes up with so many different and interesting activities for the children (arts and crafts, sensory activities, music, celebrating holidays etc.) but also gives them lots of time for free play with really varied toys. There’s lots of education through play and the team make a real effort to adapt activities so they suit each child’s developmental stage which is great. We love that the children spend so much time outside in Soodi’s lovely garden too - there are even multiple paddling pools and sprinklers set up in the summer! We’re especially impressed with the brilliant trips Soodi arranges (sand pit, parks, farms, Kew Gardens, Bushy Park, etc.) - it’s great that they’re all out and about getting so many different experiences. The setting is lovely - clean, comfortable, filled with toys, but most importantly it’s so clear how much Soodi and the team love and care for the children. The boys are always excited to arrive and greeted with so much affection, and talk so often about Soodi, Maedeh and Arezoo. We’re so glad they’re being looked after so well!
Our daughter has been with Soodi for around 10 months now. From the start Soodi and her team have been amazing. They were both patient and flexible with the settling in period and did all they could to make our daughter feel comfortable. Over the past 10 months our daughter has developed in both language and interpersonal skills. Weekly our daughter brings home completed arts and crafts and we are sent pictures of her activities weekly.
We feel very lucky to have found Soodi and would not hesitate in recommending her.
The setting is bright, clean with plenty of toys. Our daughter is also regularly taken to parks and occasionally when weather permits they are taken to attractions that include Kew Gardens, Bushy Park and The Urban Farm.
She truly is one of a kind!!
Our daughter has been at Soodi’s setting for nearly a year now and we feel so lucky to have found It! Soodi and her team are absolutely amazing. They do so much for the children, they are constantly doing fun and engaging activities and also taking them on days out (which is quite rare for childcare settings to do).
Our daughter has blossomed in their care. She is such a confident and happy girl and absolutely loves going there. She runs through to gate into their arms everyday. she really loves them all and you can tell that Soodi and her staff genuinely love all the children.
We get loads of updates with pictures and videos of what the children are doing which is lovely. I highly recommend Soodi. The setting the lovely and clean, it’s such a fun and creative environment for the children and they put so much effort in to filling their day with fun and love.
Thank you, Soodi xx
We were incredibly lucky to have had Soodi and Angel Childminding recommended to us for our little boy, who was almost 7 months old when he started going to Angels'. The team is so gentle and loving, creating engaging and thoughtful activities for the children, centred around weekly topics which help them understand and navigate the world around them. I’m always so impressed by all the fabulous things Nico gets to try and the new skills he’s learned, and despite him being one of the youngest, the team always patiently helps him to participate and have fun with his friends.
The setting is immaculately clean, light and airy, full of toys and activities to stimulate and encourage development. It's lovely to see pictures of the children snacking on delicious fresh fruit and enjoying plenty of fresh air exploring the garden and local parks.
It’s truly heartwarming to see Nico clap and kick his legs in excitement when we arrive at Soodi’s every morning, a testament to how safe, secure and loved he feels with her and the team. I can't recommend her highly enough.
We really fell on our feet when we stumbled across soodi and her magnificent team. Our son stanley has been there for over a year now - four mornings a week - and he loves being with them. The attention to detail, creativity, gentleness and devotion is a joy to behold. Daily events and activities focused around seasons, public holidays, personal development and play are carefully thought through and conducted. Kiya and Maedeh, soodi’s co workers are outstanding too. Stanley runs into their arms and sometimes would happily just stay there when we go to collect him! Surely there is no greater testament to a group of childminders than your child wanting to stay when you go to pick him up!?
We would whole heartedly recommend them to anyone - he is looked after as though he is a member of their family.
