I just don't know where to start, no words can describe Momtaz's service. My daughter started attending when she was just over a year old. As you can imagine, I was so scared and skeptical to send her to a nursery this young. I contacted Momtaz and she invited me to see her house before agreeing to anything. She put my mind at ease right from the start which really helped my decision. I can still remember the 1st day I dropped my daughter, Momtaz could see I was very upset and she reassured me that she will be fine. That day and there after Momtaz sent me photos and updates to let me know what they were doing during the day and what she ate etc. Momtaz does various activities and takes my daughter to library and other playgroups. I seriously could not have asked for anyone better. She is so nurturing and takes very good care of my daughter. Thanks a million Taz x

Thanks for such a beautiful review so heart warming to know how you feel😘😘
My little boy has been with Momtaz for a month so far and I am more than happy with the care provided. Momtaz sends me photos throughout the day of all the activities she provides for the children and ensures my little boy is included in socialising and participating with the other children. Momtaz has been more than happy to accommodate any requests I have asked in regards to my child's needs and has also been supportive in offering any advice. My little boy loves seeing momtaz, her husband and children and is always excited to go there. I feel very at ease whilst at work knowing my child is in safe hands 😊

Thank you for all your kind words it’s a pleasure looking after your little one it makes me happy taking care of him.
Being first time parents my husband and I were very protective on who we wanted to look after our son now my maternity leave had finished. So we decided on what we thought would be the most reliable, cheap and best option, nanny!
But after about 6 months we both realised that our little boy was getting bigger, much more active and needed to learn more and be around other children and that’s when I decided to employ Momtaz as his childminder. If I hadn’t had already met her at the local stay and plays and seen how she was with the current children she had I’m not sure what I would have done.
My son has now been with her for a year and I can honestly say I can trust her and I’m happy with her as his childminder. He is always busy when she’s with him and he’s always around other children. If he falls over and has a bump she calls me straight away and keeps me updated on photos of him throughout the day. She is also very understanding when I need to change the days around from week to week and also when I needed to come
To a new price agreement financially. There’s also been days when I pick my son up and he doesn’t want to leave! So that’s a good sign. :-)

When I was searching for a childminder I was pleasant imprest about the previous reviews here. Now my daughter goes 5 days per week and I can confirm everything is written in here is expressing just a small part from what this wonderful lady is doing for my child. My daughter is enjoying her time there and Taz is making sure she is getting quality time indoor and outdoor, introducing games and activities which are stimulating her creativity and imagination. My main concern in the past was about the infections she used to get every month from the nursery, infections that required almost every time treatment and time spent in hospitals, now are already 5 months from when my daughter starts with Taz and I can happily say not even one infection. I highly recommend Taz for everyone who is looking for a trustful childcare!

I would love to recommend the Little Explorers as a childminder. Momtaz was kind, loyal, loving and fun. I am currently looking for another childminder as I am moving out of the area and I am gutted that I cannot use the services of Little Explorers. I know that anyone who uses this childminder will not regret it and will instantly feel at ease with Momtaz caring nature and wonderful family. We found her to be reliable, trustworthy and would go beyond the call of duty on many occasions.
