My biggest fear was to leave my baby with a complete stranger but Gosia is amazing with kids she has loved and care for my baby girl like her own . She communicates very well and sends photos of my daughter and how she gets along .I would recommend her 100%.
Thumbs up to you Gosia 🖒🖒

Gosia looked after my son as my regular Childminder was on holiday. I was slightly nervous about how he would settle, but Gosia was fantastic. Kian settled in very quickly and by the second day he was happy to go to her. Gosia did lots of great fun things with the kids and she sent me daily photos to put my mind at ease that Kian was fine. Gosia is one of the nicest childminders I have had the pleasure of meeting and would highly recommend her.

Gosia is a lovely lady and very easy to talk to. This was my son's first time in childcare and also away from mum. She made us feel very welcome and my son settled well and enjoyed his time there. In fact, he often wanted to stay longer and would ask to go to Gosia's house to play. Gosia is an excellent childminder and the children in her care are happy and have lots of fun in her care. Gosia makes sure that the children have lots to do by going to toddler groups and parks and there is always lots of activities for the children to do and learn new skills. I highly recommend Gosia!

I had the benefit of using Gosia childminding services for the first time during the Easter holidays. I located her on childcare.co.uk and from the first time we made contact I have been delighted with the service Gosia offers. She kept me constantly informed of her availability and arranged for my daughter to meet her to ensure she was happy. My daughter Is 8 years of age and spent a number of days with Gosia during the holidays. She absolutely loved her time with Gosia and the other children. Gosia ensured that Laura was fully entertained at all times and had great fun but she also made sure that Laura was also respectful and kind to the other people there. I can't recommend Gosia enough as a childminder. She provides excellent care and all of the children adore her. Laura can't wait for the next holidays to come around.

Gosia helped me out so much when I had about a week notice to find someone to have my boys while I was at work with my hours changing every week. She was very supportive and also offered to help out on a saturday. Absolute star!

Gosia is fully qualified and professional childminder with a view to care and nurture every child in her home.
My son and Gosia develop a wonderful bond which reassures myself as a mother that he is safe & happy.
Gosia is important person in my and my son lives. He goes in happily and come out happy. I know that while he is there, he is occupied with toys and activities. He also goes to a variety of playgroups & playcentres.
Gosia offers the children a great fun and care.
I highly rate Gosia as a carrying and engaging childminder with lots of exciting activities and well established routines.

Gosia hard work, commitment and caring nature makes it a home from home setting for our son. I don't think he wants to come home! He's always happy and relaxed when I pick him up and I feel very satisfied with the care he receives.
Gosia is constantly evolving and introducing new activities and play for the children to learn.
Gosia is a fantastic minder with lots of diverse toys and activities for all ages, she will take good care of your children & you will find her a great support for any questions you have going through all your child's developments and illnesses !
Gosia can't come recommended enough I couldn't wish for a better childminders! Thank you
