We are so happy to have Vasi looking after our child. She has lovely, cozy beds for the children, which I haven’t seen anywhere else. On top of that, she cooks healthy and tasty meals that our child really enjoys.
She is kind, caring, and creates a safe, happy environment. My baby absolutely loves to go there and we feel that after every week she is developing her skills so much - thankfully to Vasi’s care and attention.
We are very lucky to have her and would recommend her to any parent looking for a wonderful childminder.

My son started with Vasi in January. She is an amazing childminder and I cannot recommend her enough. She is so amazing with our son and the other children in the setting. Our son was a very fussy eater but since starting with Vasi he now eats all sorts of food which is amazing for us! She cooks all healthy foods, does lots of activities like painting , educational , outside activities and all the children are close. In the mornings my son can’t wait to get there! She makes a big effort for birthdays and other seasonal holidays which is lovely.
We are only leaving as we are moving to Herts but if we could take her with us we would. I know my son won’t get a place like Vasi’s and we and him will be sad to leave.

I cannot recommend Vasilena enough, she is exceptional. I was so nervous and heartbroken to my 9 month but upon meeting Vasilena, my heart was calm. She is very welcoming and friendly, answers any questions you have and updates you everyday throughout the day. The setting and environment she has going on is almost like a mini nursery but a home away from home and the garden is amazing. Different healthy snacks and a hot lunch are provided everyday. The children also bring home some lovely arts and crafts on occasion. She’s looked after my little one from 9 months to 1 year and am so heartbroken to leave but we moving to Braintree. Told her if I could afford it, I would take her with me 🤣. My little baba loves her and so do my older children who she doesn’t even look after 🤣. Vasilena thank you so much for providing a welcoming, warm, loving and healthy environment for my little one. You will be missed ❤️

Vasi is amazing with children and has been caring for my twins who are now 3 years old since they were five months old. She is patient kind and instinctively knows how to handle children. My twins adore her and love spending time with her. Vasi is engaging and stimulates the children with educational toys and activities. She also keeps me updated on how the twins are getting on during the day.

Vasilena is a lovely lady.
She is friendly, reliable and welcoming.
I trust her completely with my daughter and couldn’t be happier with the care she gives her.
Vasi makes sure to check in with me every day to provide an update on my daughter's activities and wellbeing. This shows her dedication to providing excellent care. She takes the initiative to make sure that I am kept in the loop about my daughter's day, which is something that I greatly appreciate.
Highly recommended! 👌🏼
