Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 22 reviews)

Atefeh and her team cared for our daughter from 13 months old. She settled quickly and thrived on the routine that the setting offers. There is a perfect balance of trips out, arts, crafts and free play. Ottilie always ate well at the setting (far better than at home), and loved the frequent birthday parties and disco’s. Most importantly, she was completely loved, nurtured and received consistently high quality care all day, everyday. We highly recommend Atefeh and her team and are very sad to leave due to relocation.

Thank you for everything you have done to support our family.

We can’t really relay just how wonderful Atefeh and her team are having had our daughter cared for under their setting for over three years. She is kind, sensitive and accommodating, and keeps the children engaged and happy with fun activities and lots of Early Years learning.
The food has been really lovely and good quality too which is greatly appreciated - always fresh and nutritious. We consider atefeh as an extension to our family now and really couldn’t have managed without her secure well thought out setting and childcare.
Absolutely recommend in every way, and still feel incredibly lucky to have had her wonderful care to help us out while we are working with absolute confidence in the high standard of care.

I would highly recommend Atefeh.

She provides outstanding care and provision for all the children and ensures every day provides a new learning experience. Atefeh has been looking after my son since he was 5 months old and he is now nearly 4. Every day he comes home with a huge smile on his face and talks about the breadth of activities he has done including visiting farms, soft play, Hampton Court Palace and the local park. Atefeh ensures that every day the children are developing a range of skills.

Atefeh has high expectations and has excellent relationships with the parents to ensure the care she provides is being adapted to meet the needs of every child.

She also ensures that the meals are nutritionally balanced and freshly cooked every day, which has enabled my son to develop a healthy appetite with a willingness to try new foods.

I am so thankful to Atefeh and her staff for the amazing start they have provided for my son. He has learnt how to count, write, play, share, talk, draw and so much more. Since being in Atefah’s care my son has excelled.

Our children have been with Atefeh for over a year now and we are so happy that we found her! My son started when he was 10months old and my daughter was 4 for after school care.
Atefeh helped them settle in right away and also helped us through a few tricky phases including our daughter settling into school.
The setting is so well set up with toys, books and messy play available for the different ages and she also takes them out to see lots of things helping them learn about the outside world. They are always so happy to go there every morning (my son goes there full time).
Atefeh also has lovely a lovely team that work with her including her husband Hassan who makes all the delicious fresh food every day.
We honestly couldn’t be happier, Atefeh is so kind, caring and supportive of what is sometimes a difficult juggle between work and life.

Atefeh is wonderful. Atefeh looked after our daughter for 1.5years, after she started going at 9months old. We were very sad to leave this summer when our family moved to Hampshire.
Atefeh runs a very caring, happy and structured setting. Our daughter loved going, often asking to go on her days off. All the children are happy, well fed and learn lots. I would recommend Atefeh to everyone looking for a childminder in the Twickenham area. I would also be happy to talk to anyone who would like some more information. Atefeh can pass on my number.

Ateteh looked after my daughter for nearly three years in London until we moved back to Ireland in April 2018. Ateteh was the most amazing person with children I have ever seen, children instinctively trust and adore her. My daughter adored her from the start and the amazing work she done in helping to potty train, teach and write up and guide us on all stages of her development is very much appreciated. Atefehs development record of her development milestones and scrapbooks full of pictures of her art are something we will treasure forever, an amazing record of her formative years. Professional teachers have also been amazed at the work Atefeh has completed with my daughter. Atefeh and Hassan also went above and beyond for us as a family when we went through some tough times and needed additional help and support with her. She is the most genuine supportive and lovely person as well as being a very warm and loving child minder. I can not recommend her highly enough to any parent lucky to find her she is a true gem.

Really well thought out care and attention in a lovely setting. We feel so lucky to have daughter looked after by Atefeh and her team. She really cares about the children both on a development point of view and does lots of learning exercises with them but also to keep children entertained with daily activities ranging from craft and music to parks and farms.

For 18 months Atefeh provided excellent quality of care before and after school for our daughter until she was old enough to go to school by herself.

Our daughter felt very comfortable in her house and was well integrated in the house schedule. Our daughter benefited from the warm homely atmosphere and from the contact with the younger children.

It was very comforting for me to know also that everyday she was well looked before and after school . I never had to worry about her schedule either thanks to Atefeh proactive organisation skills.

Atefeh always dealt immediately with any concern about the children well being or behaviour so any potential situation was cleared off and dialogue was always maintained.

Atefeh started taking care of our son when we was 5 months old; 3 then 4 days a week for a whole year.

From day 1 our son has been smiling when he was with Atefeh and he was always happy to see her every morning when she came to pick him up. We thought it would be hard to let him go every morning morning but it was actually a real pleasure as he was leaving happy every day.

Together with the other children they learnt a lot and did many various activities. There was not a week without a few pictures from Atefeh of our son playing, painting, laughing...

Something that is also worth mentioning is that Atefeh has always been very flexible with timing/dates. Whenever we needed her to care for our son she did her best to help.

Unfortunately we had to move abroad a month ago. Our son already misses Atefeh and I hope we will find such a great childminder where we live now.

Atefeh has been a really great inspiration to my 2 kids. My little girl is 14 months and my son is 7. They have been with Atefeh since last September. They love her. Atefeh is a great childminder who looks after my kids with the greatest of care, support and safety. She is gentle. The children knows when its playtime and bedtime. I drop of my kids and go to work and I always feel confident that Atefeh and Hassan would do an excellent job without having to worry about anything. I am happy I found Atefeh to look after my kids. I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation
