Delightful Gems

A Truly Delightful Experience at Delightful Gems

Our daughter Sarah has been attending Delightful Gems since she was 18 months old; she is now 4, and we couldn't be more pleased with our choice. From the very beginning, Bunmi and her dedicated team have provided exceptional care, creating a nurturing environment that feels like a true home away from home.
We were specifically seeking a home-based nursery, and Delightful Gems has exceeded our expectations. The setting is warm, clean, and welcoming, offering a safe space where Sarah has thrived. The emphasis on discipline, manners, and learning has been instrumental in her development.
Bunmi's commitment to providing halal meal options aligns perfectly with our family's values, ensuring that Sarah's dietary needs are met with care and consideration. The cleanliness of the facility is consistently maintained, giving us peace of mind.
What stands out most is the personalized attention and love Sarah receives daily. It's evident that she's not just another child in care but a valued member of the Delightful Gems family. We are grateful for the positive impact this nurturing environment has had on her growth and well-being.
We wholeheartedly recommend Delightful Gems to any parent seeking a caring, structured, and values-aligned childcare setting.

Exceptional Childcare Service

I highly recommend Bunmi who has been taking care of my child. Bunmi is an exceptional, reliable and very caring person. Her nurturing environment, punctuality, and outstanding communication set her apart. Bunmi organises so many activities every day, and our child has shown significant improvements across all areas under her care. We are so lucky that our child attended her childcare service

Thanks so much for the amazing comments! It was an absolute delight having her with us and working with your lovely family. Thank you.

Outstanding

My son has been with Bunmi since he was 16 months old and it’s been the best choice we’ve made since then. We noticed a difference in his development in a few short months, as he came on leaps and bounds with her encouragement. Bunmi is attentive and kind and encouraging, ensuring the children are constantly learning and socialising. My sons growth with Bunmi has been incredible. He is one of the brightest children of his age that I know (with the exception of the other children in Bunmi’s care who are all advanced and advancing with her guidance) and his speech and language have progressed beyond our expectations.
The children are kept active and engaged with new learning topics each term. They’re engaged in arts and crafts, indoor and outdoor play with trips and adventures my son adores. Bunmi goes above and beyond, an example of which is the recent Jubilee party she held for the children with a bouncy castle and party day for the children. We receive daily pictures and a comprehensive daily update which allows us to keep up with what has been learned and continues the conversations and themes at home.

Above all Bunmi is is kind and caring and attentive to the children, caring for them as if they were her own. My son feels safe and loved with Bunmi and very much enjoys his days with her. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough and have referred friends to her lots of times already. If it’s a choice between a conventional nursery setting and Delightful Gems, there is no contest. My son gets the 1:1 care he needs and is developing and growing wonderfully with Bunmi. Couldn’t be happier.

Thanks so much for your lovely comments Kayla! I have loved every single moment of caring for your little one and will continue to. It's great to hear how pleased you are! Thank you 🥰

Amazing childminder

Bunmi has had my twins since they were 6 months and they have absolutely flourished. They have learned so much and interact very well with the environment. Bunmi is very detailed to make sure all the updates for the day and picture are uploaded to keep us informed. She regularly goes over and beyond so I 100% recommend.

Perfection

My daughter has been going to Bunmi since she was 14 months old and I could not be happier that I chose this setting to care for her. Not only does she receive the love and attention that she needs, but she is also continuously supported to learn age appropriate life skills such as tidying up and turn taking.
Each day we receive photos of Aria at lunch time followed by a full report at the end of the day. We therefore know exactly what she has eaten, the amount of toilet breaks she's had, and the activities she has taken part in. These activities are always a mixture of both child led free play and adult led activities which really supports Aria's development (e.g. gluing and sticking, sorting activities, mark making, etc).

As a primary school teacher I always thought I would struggle to find a setting that I would be completely happy with, but Bunmi has 100% nailed it! Cannot recommend her highly enough.
