About Me

QUALIFIED CHILDMINDER
*SPACE AVAILABLE PLEASE MESSAGE ME*

Hi, my name is Reema, and I am an experienced private nanny & childminder, with over 15 years experience and mum to a beautiful, cheeky, happy baby boy.

I offer a warm homely setting for all ages, with lots of music, singing, play indoors and outdoors. As well as gardening, play groups, soft play centres, nature walks, trips to the zoo!

Seeing a child grow and develop and being part of that nurturing process is very rewarding and why I love to work with children; along with making sure to also support the parents through the years with the various developmental stages we go through as little humans. As parents, we understand how important it is for our precious children to be well taken care of.

I have all the relevant qualifications to enable us to care for your little ones; we are knowledgeable, we are passionate about providing quality care, using the EYFS guidelines, and working in partnership with parents. I love to work as a team with each parent and their child's needs, my husband used to be a chef and with my nutrition qualification, I can offer a variety of homemade meals and snacks that cater to your child's needs - lunch, dinner and snacks all included.

You are welcome to come and see our homely warm setting so you can relax and know that your child/children will be well taken care of.

I look forward to hearing from you!

Reema is just wonderful! Our son settled so quickly and loves going to her. She is some sort of Mary Poppins who has endless patience and kindness with a vegetable eating magic wand.
100% recommend!

Thank you ☺️

Reema looked after our daughter for several years from a year old baby up to year six. She is kind and patient and provides a great environment.

Thank you

Reema helped us out with emergency childcare as she had some space. We really appreciated her warm and professional setup process. She accommodated a quick play date in her setting to allow us to settle our little girl there quickly.
Our little girl has loved it! She has nutritious home-cooked food every day. They do a variety of activities inside and outside the home. She has lots of fun with Reema's son and comes back talking about their day. I would highly recommend.

Thank you

If anyone is looking for a childminder I would highly recommend Reema. She offers a wonderful home from home environment, lots of song and play and nutritious home cooked food. My little one year old has settled so well with her and is very happy. She’s starting out as a new business so do get in touch if you’re looking for a childminder.
