My son AJ was 16 months when he started spending his Fridays with Samiya. He settled in straight away as Samiya made her home a wonderful place to stay for all of her kids. I love that AJ has his own book which details his meals and what he's done through the day. I also got pictures sent to my phone showing how happy he was playing with the abundance of toys all over Samiya's house and whilst in play groups.
It is easy to see that Samiya treats all her kids as her own. AJ loved going to Samiya's and was always eager to see her. He learned a lot of things in the 18 months he's spent with her and her team. He was looked after very well, given nutritious food and taken to a lot of places such as play groups, parks and libraries.

I would not hesitate to recommend Samiya to any parent. She is amazing! She is always loving and caring towards her kids, treating them as their own.

I guarantee that you will not find a better carer for your child! I knew we wanted her to look after AJ within minutes of meeting her, seeing how she interacted with AJ and what she's done to make her home a happy and comfortable place for the kids.

I am deeply saddened that AJ cannot spend more time with Samiya due to us moving further away, I would've been happy for him to carry on seeing her until he's too old to be looked after.

I wish Samiya, her family and her team all the best. They've been a great blessing to us and hope that other families can also experience the joy they've brought to me and my son.
