I searched high and low to find Karla. It felt a bit like I was dating and no one was good enough. When meeting Karla for the first time, my daughter immediately crawled over to her and sat on her lap (something which she never would do normally with anyone as she was very attached to me) the garden is lovely for children and feels very safe. There is a designated play room and nap room which is also very important as my daughter is a light sleeper. She settled immediately and absolutely loves going to Karla’s. I love how clear everything is with Karla too, I know exactly what my daughter has been up to daily with regular photos, we have a nice catch up morning and evening and the admin side of stuff using the app is so clear and straight forward. I can’t thank Karla enough for making me feel so at ease knowing my little one is having the best time and like she is home from home.

We’ve been taking our baby girl with Karla since November 23, we’re very happy with the way she treats children, the activities they do and the way she communicates with the parents. She’s a professional and shows passion and commitment to her job.
We would highly recommend her.

My son is extremely settled with Karla and Lisa. He absolutely loves the trips and outings to local libraries, clubs and cafes and its so nice to know he is safe and happy. At Christmas he was taken to so many parties he still talks about it! The balance between fun outings and activites and also quiet chill time and crafts seems to be spot on and we are kept up to date throughout the day with photos. I had wondered about changing him to pre school in preparation for school in September, but decided against this because he loves it so much. I know he will be so sad to leave Karla and all his lovely friends (and poppy!)

I am sending my son to Karla during term holidays and she is one of the best childminders in MK. My son just spend less time with her compared to his nursery time, but still he keep saying that Karla is the best teacher. Also, when my son refuses to have his lunch she is kind of a person who will check with him again if he is interested to eat and not everybody does that. Even if my son behaves naughty, she explains to him very friendly and take care of him. These are just two things which I have experienced with her. But, overall she is one of the most loving childminder.

I started with Karla on a part time basis and eventually full time once she had the availability. Her location is extremely convenient for my family and my girls really enjoy being in her care. She provides an exceptional service and exciting activities that not only encourages learning but socialisation. She celebrates milestones and occasions with the children and ensures that they feel special on their birthdays. The children in her care are all like a little family and are very excited to get through that door in the mornings. Thank you for being the wonderful person that you and for providing such a positive and fun space for the children!
