Highly recommend

My son has been with Sonia for 8months, starting when he was 18 months old. We had 2 weeks adaptation. Sonia took her time. She was very patient and has been great with our son. He loves going there every day. Sonia always provides healthy meals and snacks and encourages to try new things. I would highly recommend Sonia to anyone who wants a loving, caring, experienced and home from home environment for their child.

Fantastic Childminder

Sonia has been caring for our son for 5 years. She and her family are like a part of our family. She has been a tremendous support.
She provides a home from home atmosphere, home cooked meals and supports each child's needs. We could not have managed without her help. I know she wants the best for each of the children she has and she's always open to discuss any issues. I would highly recommend Sonia.

Thank you so much 🥰

Couldn’t ask for anyone better!

Sonia is caring for two of my children for over 8 years. Both of them enjoying staying at Sonia's. There's a real family atmosphere about the house - in a very positive sense. Both my children, for example, really enjoyed the opportunity to play with children, Sonia is an extremely committed professional, always giving children her full attention during sessions. At the same time she's able to talk easily to the parents and pass on anything she knows will interest or concern them - a skill sometimes overlooked in childcare!
She is not just a Childminder she is the much needed mother figure my daughter's needs whilst I am at work and I am so glad we have the joy of having her in our life.

Discrimination

Mom's of special needs children Never ever go to this Childminder, O explain her everything on phone that my son have autism and she was ok with that,like no worries bring him,I book driving lessons I took him there and when she saw him, she literally kicked us out,like oh he need more attention, I can't have him! It's really disrespectful and discriminated! I told her why you didn't tell me earlier, like she pretend that she didn't know,but you can see on her face he is lying and she wants just to rid of us!
There is another comments about her that she is so disrespectful but I didn't believe, now I saw in person!
Didn't you ever go to this Childminder!

Sorry but after being told that your child just needs to have activities and he would be fine… I saw him and observed him and realised that he would require a one to one childcare.
I had many other autistic children and special needs but knew I would be able to give that child all support and care. Sorry to upset you.

More than just a childminder

Sonia was the best childminder my children could have had. She look after 3 of my children with love and care as if they were her own! They were always looking forward to go to her house and even now that they are all at school, they still ask when they can go back to her! She cooks amazing meals, provides them with a lot of really creative activities for them to learn while playing and outings that the children love. To top that, her own children are lovely and play with the children she looks after so nicely that they really feel welcome! My eldest is 9, which is a trick age for a childminder to keep entertained, but because she is so good at what she does, he literally asks every single holiday if he can go to Sonia! She is the best in the area and because of that, her setting is always full. If you are looking for a childminder that will make your children feel like home and that will care for your children as it they were her own, I highly recommend Sonia.

Thank you Patricia… having your kids here was a pleasure, fun and lovely time…! Miss them all..😊

Very poor

This childminder gave us the impression that she was reliable and was able to accommodate our 3 year old child. There was nothing wrong from our side, our daughter started one session, she then had to self isolate. After this, she decided to drop down on us stating “she would not be able to serve us” without a valid reason and without enough notice. My partner’s new job has been affected as a result of this. I will definitely not recommend her under any circumstances. If you find this childminder, please have a plan B ahead. Luckily enough, we were able to find another childcare.

Hi I am sorry I couldn’t accommodate your daughter, as it’s very busy here and the waiting list is long…I know you are frustrated and disappointed and wish you and all your family the best.

best childminder I’ve had

This lady has changed my views on childminders. My son has learnt so much whilst being with her. He is the happiest I’ve ever seen him and she’s just so lovely and helpful. I can’t explain how wonderful she is. Best thing I’ve done was moving to her.
