Exceptional - A Second Family for Our Little One

We have been so fortunate to have found Lakshmi to care for our little one. Our son started with her when he was around 20 months old, and from the very beginning, she looked after him as if he were her own. As a family completely new to the area, we were especially grateful for how warm, welcoming, and accommodating she was in helping us settle in.

Over the past couple of years, our son has grown into a confident, happy, and very well-behaved little boy, thanks in no small part to Lakshmi’s wonderful care and guidance. She goes above and beyond to nurture every aspect of his development - teaching numbers, letters, colours, shapes, rhymes, and early phonics, as well as introducing fun activities and crafts that spark curiosity.

She offers plenty of sensory play, outdoor activities, and opportunities for developing fine and gross motor skills, such as building with blocks, drawing, painting, dancing, and messy play. She also encourages good manners, sharing, and social skills, and gently supports toilet training when the children are ready.

Her setting feels just like a second home - warm, safe, and inviting, and she treats all the children like family. The environment is always positive and calm, with clear routines and gentle encouragement that help the children feel secure and confident.

Lakshmi is exceptionally patient, reliable, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. She communicates regularly, sharing updates and photos so we always feel connected to our child’s day and can see how much he is thriving.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lakshmi to any parent looking for a childminder who genuinely cares and puts her heart into everything she does. She has played such an important role in our little one’s early years, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her.

Thanks a lot Nisha for your trust on me. You supported me a lot through out this journey 🙏

Excellent!!

Lakshmi is very warm and caring and my children look forward to going to her place before and after school. She provides them snacks that they love and she makes sure they are well fed and well rested.
She even goes above and beyond and takes them to the nearby park. I'm at peace while working knowing that they are in her caring hands ☺️
