I honestly don’t know where to begin. I met Shahnila through another trusted childminder who was going on maternity leave, and although I was initially anxious—I’m not someone who easily leaves my child with others—she came highly recommended, so I placed my trust in her. I’m so glad I did.
Shahnila is incredibly reliable, and I’ve never once had any concerns about my daughter’s care. As part of our arrangement, Shahnila picks her up from school and looks after her until I return from work. As any working parent knows, the worry about your child never truly goes away—but Shahnila’s openness, transparency, and genuine warmth have given me complete peace of mind.
Sapher, Shahnila’s assistant, is wonderful too. She shares the same kindness and attentiveness, and my daughter adores her. Together, they create such a nurturing, fun, and safe environment—I truly feel like my daughter is in the best hands.
It speaks volumes that they’ve been caring for many of the same children for years—Shahnila and Sapher are like second mums to them. I feel so fortunate to have found such an amazing team, and I can’t thank them enough for the love, support, and security they provide every single day.

I was very worried to put my child in child care as my child is very attached to me and has separation anxiety. Someone told me about Shahnila and I brought my 7month baby to her. At start my child cried a lot but Shahnila put so much effort in looking after my baby and giving her comfort. I was very impressed to see how shahnila managed to take very good care of my child who has difficulty going to anyone other than me. Shahnila has very good experience with kids and I’m fully satisfied with her. I travel all the way from Preston to drop my baby off
I would definitely highly recommend her
Thank you for all the hard work Shahnila
Keep up the good work

Shahnila is absolutely amazing. She looks after my daughter before and after school. We have only recently started with her and my daughter adores her and is impatient to go back. She is so caring, she's flexible, she put my mind at ease. My daughter is such a happy girl here. I would very highly recommend. Thank you shahanila we are so very grateful. 😊

Shahnila taking care of my daughter from 7 years, this is since my daughter was 6 months old! I'm using full time care and also pick up/ drop off school. My daughter is always happy and loves to go spend time in Shahnilas setting, having great time on activities (eg. Park, playground, playcentre, museum, planting flowers) and eating amazing food. House is always tidy, room and garden filled with toys and kids accesories. Warm welcome parents and great comunication. Shahnila is a lovely lady who giving her all heart to kids. I can honestly highly recommend Shahnilas service. Wish her all the best.

Both my children have been with shahnila from. Such a young age and have seen them. Grown in to such amazing humans.. Her service and communication is excellent and ways to develop my child is amazing... My child was not speaking initially after a few weeks with her he had developed hugely which kept me amazed. Love how she always keeps me up to date with his progress and can be seen in his daily activities. 100% recommend amazing childminder
