My Summary
About Me
Hello, my name is Kajal Karia, I am an OFSTED registered, experienced childminder and a member of PACEY. My setting has a separate playroom with a rear garden and patio, which is fully resourced with various play and learning activities such as toys, a sandpit, a black and white board, painting easel, bikes, tricycles, cars, play house, twin slide with tunnel and climbing frame. I have all age appropriate learning toys, dressing up clothes, books, dolls, puzzles, train sets, wooden bricks, Lego sets, various multi cultural toys, cars and a garage.
I enjoy working with children by making learning fun and doing various activities. My routine consists of going to the local Children’s centre, shops, park and library. Occasionally I take the children on a bus and tube ride to the shopping centre in Harrow. I hold a full clean driving license with my own car.
The EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) is followed at my setting by observing, assessing and planning the children’s daily activities and progression accordingly. I provide and encourage a range of sensory learning and play opportunities for children.
My setting has been awarded Good by OFSTED.
My setting is a pet and smoke free, cozy, friendly and safe environment for all the children to be in, which provides fun with learning and development opportunities.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions you may have.

My two-year-old daughter goes to Kajal's house twice a week and always looks forward to those days. She is always very excited to go there and comes back happy. Kajal is very caring and trustworthy. She's also very accommodating and has helped us at different times when we needed it. She also provides healthy, homecooked meals. We have had a fantastic experience with Kajal and feel confident and reassured in putting the care of our child in her hands.

Thankyou Taran
Lovely Lady. My daughter is loving her time spent at Kajal's. I can see alot of improvement in my child. Kajal loves kids just the way she would love her own child. I would highly recommend her.
I could not have asked for a better person to take care of my child.

Thankyou Reema
My son has been going to Kajal for more than a year now. She is the most amazing, loving and caring childminder I have met. The food she provides is of great quality, everything freshly made at home. My son has severe allergy to dairy and she has made sure she provides dairy-free substitutes to him. She is very patient and has the ability to understand children's needs and perspective. She keeps trying new activities each day, takes kids outdoors and explores new areas of development. I get regular updates of what my little boy is upto on whatsapp. She is like a mother to my son and I am so glad I met with her.
