Littlehands(Rolanda and Remi) have been providing childcare for my family since 2017.
The care and love they have for the children is wonderful, they really care for the children as if one of their own.
I can confidently go to work knowing my child is in a safe place where they are learning and developing new skills ,having fun and recieving nutritous meals to support their growth.
My child really enjoys learning new topics and going out on trips to explore.
Rolanda keeps a lovely record of the children's development, I really appreciate being able to see my child's learning journey and milestones.
Littlehands are passionate about what they do and work hard to keep up with regulations, guidelines and training.
Rolanda and Remi have been amazing, and are supportive of children and their family.
I really appreciate you both ❤️

Thank you so much. 🙏🏻 I cannot believe that we know each other so so long!!! 😱 Feels like we met yesterday 💞
My son had been going to Rolanda for several years, including over night/weekend stays. It was a wonderful experience and we felt like being part of their family. They go above and beyond to make sure children receive the best care, healthy food, education and lots of indoor/outdoor activities. I honestly could not have asked for better childminders and even now, when my son no longer needs childminding, we still stay in contact, because people like them you want to keep in your life. Highly recommended!

Oh... Thank you so much 💓. It's such a pleasure to know your family and still keeping in touch to see how your boy is growing 💞
Rolanda and Remi are brilliant with the children! They keep a busy schedule of learning, fun and adventures while providing a loving and healthy environment for the kids to thrive in. We have also been very impressed by the amount of time and consideration going into the kids' learning journeys where Rolanda keep us updated on what they're up to, our children's development and where our comments and opinions are encouraged as well. Rolanda's continued efforts and dedication to expand her knowledge and skills, on top of all essential certifications, is inspiring and impressive.
Little Hands really is like a second family for our kids and I cannot recommend it enough!

Thank you so much 💞 Means a lot to us knowing that you are happy with our service .
As well taking care of your second child and keep in touch with your family it's a true privilege 💞
The absolute best childminder by FAR- I am not being baised but Rolanda is the best, my Danil absolutely loves her although I think uncle remy gives her a run for her money because my son loves uncle remy. From a year old she has been caring for my son and to date not a bad word. He has blossomed and come out of his shell so much. He was very shy and his interaction and comfort with rolanda and other children is alot to do with that because she was so very patient with him.Rolanda is so attentive and caring in every way. My child eats a freshly prepared meal every day and thats one of things I love about rolanda. She cares and feeds the kids healthy and it is not the same everyday. Its always something different. There is outdoor space and a nursery area for the children and she still finds time to take them to the park, on walks and to visit animals- what more could I ask for!. The kids are never just sitting. My son loves it there. Everyday he ask about his friends at nursery and his aunt and uncle who look after him so well. Let's not mention Rolanda is clean freak. The place is clean,in two years no nursery illness due to the place being dirty because its always so tidy. She is lovely and friendly. She is patient with the children because everyone knows settling in is not easy but she always find a way to make it work that works for children as well. I cannot sing her praises high enough. Great childminder and we love her for all she does for us.

Oh... thank you so much for this feedback 😍 oh... uncle Remy 🤦♀️ favourite person in our house and every child loves him 😍 starting to think if I should make a new rules that applies specifically for uncle Remy 🤔😄
Am I clean freak 🤔? Yes I am but just because I think is important for every child to be in clean environment, so growing they would understand importance of being clean environment.
Meals? As you already mentioned only freshly prepared and cooked every day. Ask any child what is their favourite meal of the day? Can guarantee 99% would say soups 🍲.
Once again thank you for this feedback. It's our pleasure to know you as a family and to know your wonderful son ❤️
