My Summary
About Me
Dear Parents,
I have been rated four times GOOD by OFSTED, also my commitment to childcare is appreciated & highly valued by parents which is evident from the consistently 5 star reviews & feedback I receive.
I am up-to-date with all the Mandatory trainings required for Childminders such as Paediatric First Aid and Child Protection and Safeguarding. I am also trained in the use of Epi-Pen for Children with allergies.
Below is the Summery of Key Findings for Parents from my last Ofsted inspection report:
This Provision is GOOD.
• The Childminder is Kind and Attentive to Children and successfully supports their Emotional Well-being. She plans activities that interest and motivate children to learn.
• The Childminder knows the children well. She exchanges information about the progress they make with parents, so they can share this with children’s key person at nursery. This joint approach means she is able to provide consistent care and learning for children.
• The Childminder gives priority to Protecting children. She attends regular training courses in Child Protection and has a good understanding of the procedure to follow in the event of any concerns about a child.
• Parents report that they are extremely happy with the care their children receive. They say that they really appreciate how flexible the Childminder is in order to support them and their children.

I am rating Little Wonders with 5 stars undoubtedly. Pranali is the best certified childminder. My son has been there for one months duration before his school started and he just love the place alot. The overall play area and surrounding is hygienic and well organised. Children play together and do mindful activities throughout the day. Being an Indian, Pranali has good command over native language Hindi as well as English which was plus point for me as my son was very comfortable with her.

I highly recommend Prinari as a dedicated and trustworthy caregiver for your child. She has been taking care of my daughter while I'm at work, and I couldn't be more pleased with the level of care and attention she provides. Prinari creates a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where my daughter thrives. Her commitment to the well-being and development of children is truly commendable. I have complete peace of mind knowing my child is in her capable hands.
NB: My daughter carries her own meals and snacks and for that am not able to give a clear rating. However, Prinari does ensure she eats the healthy foods first and the 'junk' later which is quite good

I met the childminder through this app. she approached me, and as she and I, both were from asian background, I did not think twice before opting her as my 4 years old daughter's childminder. she is amazing with kids, and very welcoming. my child used to cry to go back to her place to interact and play with other kids there. would definitely recommend little wonders for the babies! 👶
