Our little girl started at 9 months with Sherife and Elis and has developed wonderfully in the past 10 months.
I highly recommend Sherife and feel like she is an extension of our family.
Reasons to choose Sherife:
- clean home
- loving and fun atmosphere
- positive discipline
- great communication
- all the children are respectful, happy and content
- family environment
- structured day with activities changing daily, an early learning curriculum is followed
- yummy, healthy food that is always eaten
- daily report & photos
As soon as I met Sherife she knew how to approach my daughter, make her feel comfortable and put us parents at ease. We feel lucky to have found her.

Our son has been with Sherife and Ellis from 11 months to date (20 months). From the start he's always had a smile on his face walking though the door in the morning, which reassured us from the beginning. He often comes home with a little masterpiece as evidence of another stimulating day, and we can see him progressing each day.
Sherife is warm, caring, attentive, firm when necessary, but most of all genuine, it's not an act at pick up / drop off for our benefit.
Communication is clear and transparent with a lovely daily report, photographs and a nice little update at the door.
We consider ourselves lucky that our son is in safe hands and won't hesitate sending any future arrivals to Sherife and Ellis.

Thank you 😊
Looking for childminder or any childcare is very stressful, we want all the best for our little ones so If you looking for someone that will care for your child the way you will do it yourself Sheriffe and her lovely daughter are the people to go to.
My little boy started when he was 9 months old ,now he is 1.5 year old and he loves it there .they provide lovely activities, good food and happy atmosphere.
Sheriffe is always willing to give advice which helps when you first time mum.She is easy to communicate with and very friendly.
We could not be more happy with them!
Thank you so much!

Thank you :)
This is our leaving review of Stay Fun Childcare.
Our son started in November 2020 and just left in August this year (2022). We would certainly class Sherife a forever part of our family now and we wanted to share our experience with others to help them make an informed and crucial choice when it comes to caring for ones child or children. In reality we could have moved Oscar to pre-school a lot sooner but we were so happy with his development we didn't want to disrupt that. The bond between Sherife and Oscar was and still is, very obvious.... he constantly asks when he's going to be able to see Sherife and if he's won an award at pre school, his first thought is to tell Sherife which is testament to how loving, safe and involved Sherife is, with all her children she cares for. We can't recommend Stay Fun Childcare enough. Thank you for all you've done for us and Oscar, we're forever grateful.

Our little one started going to Stay Fun when she was 14 months old. She was born on the first day of the pandemic so her first year of life was one of minimal interaction with other people. We not only had the usual worries any first time parent has, we had the added worry of her lack of socialisation. We wanted a gentle transition and felt that a nursery would be too big/loud after such a long time stuck at home. Finding the best possible childcare for her was of utmost importance and we struck gold when we found Stay Fun. Sherife has always been very supportive both of our daughter while settling her into her home and her daily development and needs, and of us as parents giving us reassurance and advice when needed. She is very generous with her time and the information she provides, and the daily reports and pictures give us a wonderful insight into what our little one gets up to during the day. Sherife helped our daughter have a more consistent sleep pattern, something we will be forever grateful for! Stay Fun provides a fun, structured, bright, playful and healthy environment for our daughter and we couldn't be happier with Sherife's setting, her loving care for the kids, the hard work that she puts into making everyday special with lots of activities and new experiences for the little ones. We have already recommended Stay Fun to lots of friends in the area, and we wouldn't hesitate to continue to do so.

My son has loved attending Stay Fun. He sees Sherife as a member of the family and talks about her affectionately at home. His whole well being and stages of development have been thought about and planned for at every step of the way . I think back to all of the stages we have been through from 16 months to 38 months and it feels as if Sherife has made all of the right decisions and held our hand as parents along the way . He is safe , happy and excited and inspired to go to ‘Stay Fun’ . Additional celebration days make the whole experience even more special but day to day he enjoys gardening , cooking , arts and crafts and water play . He eats very healthily and well at Sherife’s too.
I am an EYFS lead in a school and it is obvious to me that Sherife is planning opportunities for the children to make progress in all areas of the curriculum, but especially in his personal social and emotional learning , his communication and language and his physical development .
I would highly recommend ‘Stay and Play ‘ . My child has attended school nursery settling in sessions and the feedback is that he is nursery school ready and seems really comfortable and well practised in routines like following instructions, sharing and listening to stories .
I feel extremely happy that we choose ‘Stay Fun’ and believe that it gave my son the best possible start to experiencing child care and the early years curriculum . We are going to miss ‘Stay Fun’ and the daily updates and photos of all of the wonderful experiences that he encounters each day.

Our son has been with Stayfun since he was 11 months old he has totally thrived in their care and often talks about Sherife and co on the weekends.
Sherife provides a daily report which we really appreciate so we can ask our son about the various activities he has done. The report includes what our son has eaten that day. My husband and I often joke that we wish we could have lunch and dinner with them as the food always sounds delicious and healthy. My son has an egg allergy and this has never been a problem for Sherife in offering him a diverse diet and we feel he is in totally safe hands.
The range of activities they do is great and stimulating. My sons development and learning has really thrived under their care.
I can not imagine how it must be adapting to the continually changing guidelines of covid but we have always felt our son was in a safe nd healthy environment.
Overall it is a very warm, welcoming and happy setting. I have recommended to a number of friends and only have positive feedback

After many months looking for a childcare setting for our little girl during a pandemic we came accross: Stay Fun Childminding. It was one of best decisions we made!
Sherife was very reassuring and supportive of us during the settling stage and our little girl adpated quickly and better than we could ever wish.
Sherife sends detailed reports at the end of each day which besides giving us a look in to what the day was to our little ones, it gives us great feedback into our child development.
We have already recommended Sherife to many other friends and have no hesitation in recommending her again.
Thanks

Sherife and her team are absolutely amazing. My child literally skips into her setting every day. I honestly don’t think I could have found a nicer home from home for my little one. The care and attention given to each child is unbelievable and I thank my lucky stars that I found Stay Fun when I started my search for a childminder

Choosing a suitable childcare setting as first time parents was one of the hardest decisions we had to make and the pandemic made this even more difficult. Without a doubt, we can honestly say choosing Stay Fun Childminding was the best decision we made and our little girl is thriving with Sherife and her team.
If you’re looking for a childminder that is:
✅ caring
✅ loving
✅ kind
✅ knowledgeable
✅ passionate
✅ dedicated
✅ committed
✅ welcoming
✅ friendly
✅ reliable
✅ flexible
then Sherife is all of the above and so much more.
Sherife’s setting is:
✅ clean
✅ calm
✅ educational
✅ organised
✅ fun
✅ cosy
✅ relaxed
✅ spacious
Due to the pandemic our little girl had not had the opportunity to mix with other babies, children, family and friends and was not used to being around other people and environments. This made the settling in process very difficult and took longer than we expected. Sherife and her assistants were very patient and worked really hard with us to try and make this process easier.
Sherife was always positive and confident in reassuring us that all children were different and some need longer to settle in than others. She was willing to go at a slow and steady pace in order to make our little girl feel comfortable in her setting. We really appreciated all the hard work, support and advice from Sherife during these early months, which has now ultimately paid off as we are so thrilled to see our little girl so happy, settled and making such amazing progress in so many ways.
Sherife regularly sends a full and detailed report at the end of each day setting out nappy change times, what the children ate for breakfast, lunch, snacks and teatime, the activities they did and any general observations.
Sherife caters for various dietary requirements and we are always pleased to hear of the healthy, fresh and wide variety of home cooked meals that she prepares for the children at her setting.
When we go to collect our little girl at the end of the day, Sherife is always happy to spend a few minutes to talk through how the day went with our little girl and to answer any questions we may have which is always very helpful.
Sherife is also flexible and tries her best to accommodate our requests where possible when we need to change or swop the odd days.
We can’t thank Sherife and her team enough for everything that they have done and continue to do, which really gives us such peace of mind in knowing that we can totally trust that they are taking such good care of our little girl.
We have already recommended Sherife to many families that we know and have no hesitation in recommending her again.
Thanks
