Subha has been my son's childminder for 4 years now and I would recommend her to any parent without hesitation. Subha is one of the most flexible, reliable and supportive childminders you will find, and she tops that off with an innate ability to care for children. Subha's approach to both the parent and the child is open, transparent and collaborative, and will work to support you as what can only be described as a co-parent. Whether you need help with potty training, ironing out eating habits or just generally addressing day to day things - in Subha you will find a partner who will work with you specifically to achieve what is best for your child.

Subha is the most organised woman I have met - she impressed me in the first instance when I met her with preempting any questions I would have and having all the necessary documentation to hand. She maintains regular communication & dialogue, sends lots of pictures, and arranges regular activities for children - trips to the parks, library, days out for a movie or play area, Halloween parties etc. Her manners are impeccable and she passes that on to the children - all the children in her care are polite and I can safely say each child will bring home a valentine's card, mothers/fathers' day card. She operates a safe, clean and inclusive environment, where diversity is celebrated. She has extensive space for the children (an additional building at the back of her house where the children can relax and a garden), an ample supply of toys, and she is extremely clean. My son always enjoys his meals at Subha's and often bakes little treaties to bring home.

Subha has been an immense and consistent source of support over the past 4 years - she is available to support when I have unexpected emergencies at work and has looked after my boy overnight as well. My son trusts Subha immensely and is happy in her environment - some of his best friends were friendships he found at Subha's. There is little more I can say here other than that over the past four years, Subha has proved to be so much more than a just a childminder.
