About Me
Hi, my name is Lorena I am a mother of two lovely boys aged 12 and 15. I have been working with families and children for 10 years.
I am Brazilian and bring with me the Latino warmth. Being from South America, I would love to read children's stories in English, Portuguese and Spanish. On that note is find it important to celebrate all different cultural festivities, and this is what we are going to do.
I have put a lot of love and energy into my Childminding setting to provide support, safety and a stimulating environment (age-appropriate). I want to make sure children feel happy, relaxed and comfortable the entire time.
We have a lovely garden.
Surrounding the area, we can find a great local library (which has playgroups), museums, playgrounds and many beautiful parks and gardens! The closest stations are Ladywell and Crofton Park. We are going out always when the weather allows us to do so.
Is important to say that I provide fresh and homemade Vegan and Vegetarian food for children (I love to cook, by the way!).

I am passionate about child development, and I am implementing Montessori method elements to promote independence and confidence. Here we play, learn, develop and explore.
I am keen to encourage positive relationships, appreciate nature and respect others.

From the moment we stepped into Lolo’s we knew our daughter was in kind and loving hands.
Lolo, Indie and the team genuinely love and care for each child.
The environment is fun and creative, the food is amazing (all healthy vegetarian meals).
Our daughters development has come on leaps and bounds and that’s definitely hugely down to the team at Lolo’s.
Couldn’t recommend them highly enough

Our daughter has been at Lolos for 18 months now and she absolutely loves it, as do we! No day is the same with so much thought and effort going into each new activity both inside and outside, which has definitely supported our child's development during her time there!
The setting is lovely with so much for the children to experience and they are always encouraged to get outside when they can and make use of the lovely garden.
The food offered is also fab and super healthy and has certainly helped widen our daughters taste buds.
Lolos made the transition of placing our daughter into childcare when we went back to work a much easier one and we would highly recommend anyone looking for a childminder within the area!

Thank you so much for your kind words! It’s been a joy to have your child with us, and we’re thrilled to hear how much she loves it here. We put a lot of thought and care into creating diverse and engaging activities, and it’s wonderful to see how they’ve supported her development. We're also glad to know she enjoys the healthy meals and that she’s becoming more adventurous with her tastes!
It’s always our goal to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment, both indoors and out, and it means a lot to hear that we’ve made the transition back to work easier for you. Thank you for your trust and support, and for recommending us so highly!
Our 15 month old son has been in Lolo and Gaby’s care for the last 4 months & I couldn’t be happier. We originally registered to send him to nursery & wanted a childminder in place as a back up but they quickly became our first choice after meeting them both.
It’s so lovely to know he is looked after so well, eating homemade healthy food, spending time outdoors, socialising with the other children with lots of play time and cuddles throughout the day. He’s very happy to go there and loves spending time with them.
Lolo has babysat for us a few times which is a real bonus, as our son is always so excited to see her!
Our son was going through a phase of separation anxiety before joining but I needn’t have worried- the settling in period was very thorough including me spending the first session with him and it was great to see how much fun the children were having.
Gabi & Lolo are flexible and attentive to our sons needs & we would highly recommend to anyone.

Lolo and Gabi look after our daughter so well I never worry about her and that's truly the best gift you can get as a parent! As soon as we met them we knew they were the right ones for our baby as she needs friendly faces and lots of cuddles. We leave her in the morning knowing she gets all the warmth and attention she could possibly want, as well as new experiences and plenty of playtime. Her development has increased rapidly and she's really bloomed whilst she's been at Lolo's, she is a very happy baby and we are very happy parents!

Our son has been with Lolo and Gabi for about 6 months now. From the very thoughtful and gentle settling in period till now, we have been so happy with the care they have given him. He absolutely loves them both, it’s so reassuring to see how they greet him in the mornings and how he excitedly runs to give them a hug.
Lolo and Gabi have created a very nurturing environment, with good routine of varied activities and nap times, also a really tasty sounding menu of balanced healthy food. I really value their experience and knowledge, and can tell they genuinely love being with the children they care for, which is such a big relief! Would definitely recommend them.
