Divineheritagechildc's Reviews

Home from home

Avril has been looking after my daughter since she was 5 months for nearly 4 months now. Avril is reliable, flexible and my daughter settled in very quickly in her settling. She’s always happy seeing Avril when I dropped her off and when I picked her up I knew she had a wonderful day. Unfortunately we will be moving out of the area so we need to say goodbye to Avril soon.

I’m really glad to have found Avril as my daughter’s childminder. With her help I always go to office with reassurance that my daughter will be well taken care of.

Thank you for taking the time to leave me a review. It's a pleasure caring for baby J. Your kind words are greatly appreciated, and we all here at Divine Heritage Childcare will miss baby J dearly, especially her lovely smile. Best wishes, and you are always welcome.

Could not recommend more highly

Avril has been part of our family since my oldest was 5 months old and has now helped transition both my children into school / nursery. She is one hundred percent reliable and professional. Her flexibility, support and advice to me as a parent have been invaluable. She is great at helping children through the difficult stages of toddlerdom and potty training. Most important of all though, she is warm and caring and provides a real family environment for the children in her care. My two love going to Avril, have made great friends there, and really feel part of her family.

Thanks so much Angharad for your kind words. I really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience about my service. Your children are truly gems and they are always welcome. I look forward to having them again in the future!

Excellent

Avril has been looking after my daughter Nasya by picking her up from St Joseph and sometimes when she is off school like now
And she has been the best.
Not from me and my daughter doesn’t even want to hear that Avril will not look after so this tell you a lot about her service and professionalism
I recommend her 100% even though we live in Sydenham I still travel to drop my daughter with her.

Thank you so much Litreg and I'm grateful. It's a pleasure taking care of your daughter. She is very polite, helpful and well mannered.

Amazing Childminder

Avril is a very friendly, caring and welcoming childminder. My daughter absolutely enjoys school pick ups and spending time at Avril home after school. My daughter is always happy when I pick up and greatly enjoys interacting with the other children.

Avril has been really accommodating, as well providing a safe and healthy environment. I would highly recommend Avril to anyone looking for a reliable and professional childminder.

Thank you so much for services.

Thank you Mandy. A is very friendly and intelligent. We'll miss having mental math test with her, she's always welcome.

The best home away from home experience

It is always difficult to leave your baby (9 months old in our case) with someone else but Avril has made the whole experience so easy for me and my son. She was very reassuring from the beginning and helped James settle in in no time. Now he has such a wonderful time with Avril and the children and comes back home happy. They always have fun activities planned, such as going to the park, the library and other play groups and James has been developing in leaps and bounds.

Avril is very caring, fun, observant and highly experienced. She sends us videos and photos of James and lets us know of the things we should pay attention to (such as Jamesie starting to walk along the furniture and wanting to pull everything from the table). We couldn't have hoped for a better experience and are very grateful to Avril and her children for making James feel so loved and happy.

Thank you so much Laura. James is such a pleasant, fun loving boy. It's a pleasure caring for him and he is always welcome. We'll miss him so much with his cute smile.

Reliable care in an immaculate home

Avril has been really friendly from day one. My daughter took some time to settle and used to cry at drop off, but 10 minutes late Avril would send me videos of her laughing, smiling, and playing which I found really reassuring. Avril took her on little trips to the library, which I appreciated as my daughter only went one morning a week so it was nice of her to fit that in. We just never had any problems with Avril- always reliable, there was straightforward communication and our daughter really settled there well.

Thanks Vanessa. It was lovely taking care of your daughter. She is such a pleasant and friendly child. She'll be missed, she's welcome at any time.

Best childminder

My 1 year old loves going to Avril's to play. He became more social and friendly with. Avril understands the different needs of the children and will accommodate to any changes. She keeps a clean home and has toys appropriate for my baby. I love the home setting she has created for the kids. Avril is very patient and kind; I love the way she speaks gently to the kids. Her own children are polite and loves to play with the kids under her care. I highly recommend Avril to anyone who's looking for quality childcare around the area!

Thank you mum JM. It has been a joy taking care of baby A. We will really miss him.

Great childminder

Avril has been my daughter’s childminder for one year, collecting her from school and looking after her for a few hours. She's a great person, caring and really lovely. Communication is excellent, house is always clean, safe and provides a good environment for children. At pick up time, my daughter looks happy, playing with other children and she's made good friends there. Avril takes kids to local parks and also has plenty of toys/activities in the house. I would highly recommend Avril as childminder.

Thank you Magda.

Best childminder

Honestly the best childminder. Clean house, different toys for the kids and activities to help their development, she takes them out, my baby loves going to her. It's the best feeling knowing your child is well taken care of when you can't be present.

Thank you Michelle. I love taking care of Mickyia, she is very loving.

Exceptional

Avril is a wonderful childminder. She is kind, patient and caring. My son was very anxious when I first left him and Avril was so understanding and patient with him. His speech has developed ten fold which I can only attribute to Avril. I couldn’t recommend Avril and her expertise enough and would give 10 stars if I could! Avril will send me
photos and videos of him playing and I love seeing him so happy with the other children and in a safe and clean environment.
