Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
17 June 2024
A warm and secure environment forms the foundation of this childcare setting. Children develop essential skills for the future, with a focus on communication and language, including support for those speaking English as an additional language. Independence is encouraged, with children showing confidence in tasks like fruit cutting and personal hygiene. Physical activity and learning about the world are promoted through outdoor play and local visits. While parent communication is good, more opportunities for sharing updates about children's home learning could be beneficial.

Kind, caring and professional

5 stars

Srini has looked after our daughter over the last 2.5 years and we couldn’t have been more pleased with her. Srini is kind, caring, extremely attentive and has a very patient nature. She understands every child is different and had made sure our daughter was made as comfortable as possible. We always hear about the great things the kids have been up to and the activities are always varied with lots of fun included. We’ve also left our son in her care too and both are happy and well looked after.

As full time working parents, we feel that the times of childcare offered by Srini is flexible and works for our family. This also includes any adhoc days where we need childcare she will always try her utmost to accommodate us.

Her home is warm and welcoming with everything required for a child safe environment and we would highly recommend to friends and family.

Thanks very much for your comment. Very much appreciated x

Genuinely kind, considerate and passionate childmi

5 stars

As a full time working mother based in the City, it was extremely important to find someone that I trusted implicitly with my son Ethan. He hated our local nursery and was never given much attention, so it was heart breaking for me to see how distressed he was.
From the moment, Srini opened her front door, I knew immediately that my gut told me that she was right for us a family, and for my son. Her home is cosy, warm, extremely clean, open space with a huge selection of toys. Her garden is also amazing with lots of outdoor swings and slides and very clean.

I cannot thank or credit Srini enough for the way she patiently deals with Ethan even when he is throwing massive tantrums. She really is attentive, highly patient and has this natural ability to enable any child to warm to her.

Srini is one of a kind and very flexible and she will always do her utmost to accommodate our needs and has and will always go the extra mile for us.

I would not have been able to do my job competently or happily without Srini. The fact that I know Ethan is so happy with her enables me to enjoy work again without feeling guilty.

Another added bonus is that her husband and children are all delightful, lovely and very fond of the children there.

If I'm honest, I was a little reluctant to write this as I want Srini all to myself but she absolutely deserves these comments and it is all a credit to her as a person and her continuous hardwork.

Thanks again Srini!! You are the best!

Srini is a very loving, caring and supportive...

5 stars

Our son started with Srini at the age of 1. Prior to starting he had been at a local nursery, and over the winter had caught one bug after the other and was never happy when we dropped him off at Nursery even when he was well.

We decided to take him out of the nursery as we felt the nursery was very rigid in following their rules, and lacked the flexibility and experience to provide our son with the care and affection he needed, e.g. if he needed to be held or if he had just been recovering from a cold he would still be getting taken outside on a wintery day.

With Srini, from day one of dropping Fred off he was much happier than he'd ever been at nursery.

Both myself and my husband work long hours and Srini has been very flexible with us, and has removed all the stress we had before when back at work and leaving our son in nursery. Srini has a great empathy and understanding of what parents want for their children from their childcare.

Srini's home is very clean and well laid out for young children, with space to run around, and she has an extensive range of toys (indoor and out), books and other arts and crafts.

Srini makes homemade food and on days when our son had been unwell and not eating on time, Srini had made sure to offer him food as soon as he was feeling able to eat.

Srini also takes the kids out to different playgroups, libraries, parks and on nice days in summer will take them to local farms.

We are really happy with Srini and can't thank her enough.

Very caring

5 stars

Srini is very caring and hands on with the kids who love the warm and friendly environment she creates. I don't worry at all about my boys when they are with her as they are always happy and fed when I pick them up. Srini takes them to the park & play groups. They enjoy their time with Srini and I have very much piece of mind leaving my children in her care.

Thank You Very Much.

5 stars

My daughter was only 5 months when she started at Srinis. Srini takes very good care of children and the kids love her back equally. Her own children are very talented skilled and very smart. I knew my little girl was in good hands. My little girl is very fond of Srini and her family. Shaurya has learned quite a lot.I wait to meet my daughter to hear first hand what she has learnt. Srini keeps her house spotless clean. Her house is always kids friendly with loads of books, toys and activity to keep every one busy and happy any time of the day.

thank you Srini for everything :)

She is so caring with our 16 months old twin boys. They really love going to Srini and play with all the other kids and her children. They learnt so much... I would recommend Srini eventhough I would prefer to keep her for us only :)

Angel

5 stars

She really is god-sent! Srini has been an answer to my prayers for my 3 yr old daughter. She takes very good care of my child. She also tries to instill good habits in her, I can work in peace knowing that my angel is in good hands. Sriyani is loving and fun to be with. Her house is spotlessly clean and beautiful. Her family supports her and her kids adore my child.
I couldn't have asked for another one.
Thank you Srini.
