We have had the incredible good fortune of having Filareti as our childminder. She is warm, nurturing, and truly cares about the children she looks after. Our daughter absolutely loves spending time with her. She looks forward going to her home and always comes back happy and full of stories about the really enjoyable and educational activities they've done together.

Filareti goes above and beyond to create a safe, stimulating, and loving environment. She follows the home learning curriculum to organise creative, educational activities that keep children of different ages engaged and excited to learn. Whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor play, vocabulary learning, story telling, cooking... there's always something special carefully planned.

Communication with Filareti is fantastic. She offers a very comprehensive debrief after minding our daughter and with our permission shares photos and videos of the activities they have done together during the day. We always know what our daughter has been up to, from nap length, to toilet trips, food eaten and activities completed. Filareti excels at being equally professional and loving. My daughter considers her a reference person, she offers attachment, education, sympathy and extraordinary care in a wonderful environment (both indoors and outdoors). We leave for work reassured that our daughter is in the best hands.

Something that really sets Filareti apart in addition to her genuine passion for childcare is her strong academic and professional background in child studies – philosophy, pedagogy and psychology. She treats her children like they're part of her own family and provides individualised attention to their needs. We consider her family too!

I cannot recommend Filareti enough: professional, kind, invested in the wellbeing and development of her children, nurturing, respectful, offering attachment. I could be writing for days! Filareti is simply the best and we feel so incredibly fortunate to have found her.
