Our daughter Bruna has been with Celma and her team for the last year and we only have nice things to say about them. I could not have wished a better place for her to grow up. Celma and her assistsnts are like a family to us, with a lovely way of helping children growing up, in a very respectful and safe environment.
Out daughter has loved being there everyday and she has learnt a lot of new things, and I am convinced she's become a nice little girl because of that lovely childhood! It is a shame that now we've come back to our hometown and we cannot take them with us!!! I would highly and without any hesitation recomment this amazing childminder!
Thank you Celma,
Milana and Edgar
I was so worried about finding childcare for my daughter Isla but then I came across Celmas. Celmas is a home from home for Isla and I could not wish for a better setting and more loving childcare for her to be in... Celma and her assistsnts are like an extended family
and my daughter loves it there. As a mother after finding celmas I felt like such a weight was lifted when finding someone to look after my baby/now toddler. I can not recommend her care enough. Aside from the most important thing, I'm also extremely impressed with what my daughter has learnt this past 18months. I'm also pleased and thankful my previous fussy eater really enjoys and eats really well here.
Celma, Vanda and their amazing team of assistants have taken care of both our children, from 6 months to 3 years old. They have a wealth of childcare experience, are very professional and reassuring and take amazing care of babies and toddlers alike. The house is immaculately clean and the garden is well equipped. They organise activities outside and in local playgroups, and both our children have learnt an amazing number of songs and games and developed really well. It’s a very nurturing and stimulating environment and both children developed long term friendships.
Celma is very understanding and will always try her best to support and be flexible when needed. The whole team is warm and kind hearted and there is a real connection with the children.
We have always felt like our children are in the best possible care and the little ones loved it 😊.
My two eldest children went to celma as soon as I went back to work and loved it from the start. celma and vanda and all the assistants have been incredibly caring, open and encouraging with our children. I love how they take them to the park and playgroups. They do art in abundance and offer good routines and guidance to the children. We liked that they offered a 'large' childminder setting with a number of children for ours to play with but still with close personal bonds created with celma and vanda and their teams in a home environment. Would highly recommend.
Celma and her sister Vanda run a very structured setting with great outdoor play areas for the children in their back gardens , as well as multiple play rooms indoors. There is the genuine sense of extended family as there are various members of their own family and Portugues community working with them.
Their homes are spotlessly clean. Certainly the cleanest of all the places I viewed.
The care is in the style of a small nursery. We appreciated that there was always good cover of staff for holidays and sickness so that we received continuity of care.
We wished we received more detailed communication regarding our daughter's daily activities, although there was a daily template sent out with some basics each day. I have heard from other parents that they were able to receive more of this information if they could collect their child at a less busy time, however we were always using Celma's service from 08.00 - 18.00 to the maximum.
We know our daughter really enjoyed her time here and so we kept her in for 1 day a week even when I went on maternity leave again. She learned excellent manners and sharing skills amongst the other normal milestones.
My daughter was with Celma and her sister, Vanda, for 2.5 years. I was so pleased to find Celma's house when I was first looking - it's a friendly, spacious environment - bigger than many childminders but smaller than a full-on nursery. I was always confident that my daughter was well looked after and she made lots of little friends. The food is homemade and the team were accommodating and confident dealing with her various allergies. She's moved on to her bigger nursery now that she's bigger but we will all miss Celma's.
Celma and her team are amazing! My son was with her for nearly 3 years and sadly we moved to Bromley so had to say goodbye :( He was in day care one with Celma since very little and in day care two after he turned 2 and he loved both houses, all the activities and friendly environment, tasty and healthy food and we never had any problem or issue with him related to all the time he spent there.
His development has been great and it is amazing the things he learnt while there. Lots of good habits and manners and a family friendly environment provided meant we wished he would never leave.
We definitely recommend Celma, I always felt I could trust her and her assistantes while at work, and that is what every parents want!
So sad we have to leave:(
We were put in touch with Celma through a friend and liked her setting and personality instantly. Unlike other settings we had visited, Celma provides a loving, caring, stimulating and clean environment. Having met Celma and toured her home I felt very reassured about the level of care the children receive there. She has excellent routines in place such as washing hands before meals as well as brushing teeth after meals and a lovely garden where the children can play and enjoy the good weather. Celma (and her staff) are very friendly, fair and realistic in their approach to childcare. The staff took great care to help settle our baby boy into their environment and he took to them instantaneously (which made my return to work so much easier). Our son thoroughly enjoyed his time at Celma’s and was very happy there. I would absolutely recommend Celma as a childminder.
My daughter was with Celma and her team for over two years and was so well looked after.
She provides a fantastic ,safe and stimulating environment for the children and they also take them out to the park and playgroups.
Aisha made lots of friends there and formed great relationships with the adults. We only left because I was on maternity leave , but we were very happy there. 100% recommend!
My daughter was in Celma’s care for over 2 years and I highly recommend her.
It is the perfect environment between a nursery and a childminder so Leah made a lot of little friends that she looked forward to seeing every morning.
Celma works with a fantastic team of people. They all are enthusiastic and look after the children very well. Activities are organised around themes. Leah has learnt so much there. Food is home-made, healthy and varied.
It is incredibly important to be able to go to work knowing that your child is happy, comfortable and in good hands and this is exactly what Celma provides: peace of mind! We will miss her and her team.
