Dijana's Reviews

Couldn’t be happier!

We feel so incredibly lucky to have found Dijana as our son’s childminder. From the moment he started at just 7 months old, she has provided a warm, nurturing, and stimulating environment where he has absolutely thrived. Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is never easy, but Dijana made the transition seamless—her home is truly a home away from home.

She has supported him through so many milestones, from learning to crawl and walk to developing his speech, learning to use cutlery, or play - both with others and on his own and has developed his confidence. His days are filled with exciting activities, from playgroups to zoo adventures, sports days in the park and even teddy bear picnics, ensuring every day is fun, engaging, and enriching.

It’s clear how much she genuinely cares for the children, and we’ve seen firsthand the positive impact she’s had on our son’s happiness and development. We cannot recommend her highly enough—and despite him starting at nursery in September, he’ll be back in the school holidays to continue building on all that he’s learnt.

Dijana - thank you for everything you’ve done for him, for the flexibility, the care and the love you have provided him, we are endlessly grateful.

Dijana is one in a million, an exceptional lady

I was recommended Dijana to me when my daughter was 11 months old and i was returning to work and had failed to find a nursery which i felt comfortable enough to leave my daughter at. From our first meeting i walked in and instantly felt at ease and in an environment which was loving, safe and educational and from that moment i knew she was the one. Now my daughter is 4 and will be leaving to go to school in September i have reflected back on how big a part of ours lives she is. Dijana has helped my daughter with every stage of her life so far from learning to walk, learning to talk to feeding herself and becoming more independent. The educational activates which Dijana puts on for the children are absolutely incredible and have aided my daughters learning to beyond anything i could have hoped for. Dijana has a fantastic large garden where the child can play, grow flowers and vegetables, explore nature and of course let off steam. The garden is accessible and made use of throughout all the seasons. She has taken my daughter to so many fantastic places including play groups, parks, zoos and museums. Dijana takes time and great care to provide her with wonderful home cooked meals whilst also taking into consideration any dietary needs. Throughout the years she has supported us as a family and consistently shares all progress with us through pictures, videos and all the wonderful pictures, paintings and home cooked goodies our daughter brings home. Dijana has blown my expectations on every level, she truly is one in a million, we trust her whole heartedly and will be very very sad to leave you at the end of the summer. Dijana, we cant thank you enough for all you have done, any child which comes to you next will be extremely lucky, loved and supported, thank you xx

Second mum to my two boys!

Dijana was recommended to me when my little boy was 6 months old. I was going back to work as a teacher and needed to find someone to take care of my son for 3 days a week. I found the whole process quite daunting but when I met Dijana I felt totally at ease. I trusted her explicitly and I am so glad I followed my gut. My eldest is now 4 so will be leaving Dijana to start school in September but she now has my littlest boy who she has had from 10 months old. Dijana provides amazing acitvities for the children, gives them lovely home cooked dinners and is always keeping me informed of how they are doing through videos and pictures. They grow their own fruit and vegetables in her beautiful garden (and get to try them!) as well as play with all the wonderful resources she has on offer. I love the beautlful things my boys bring home and the knowledge they have both retained is just incredible. As a first time mum, I was anxious about leaving my first son, especially because he didn't nap well but both my boys were absolutly fine and slept brilliantly! My boys are so happy in her care and I wouldn't trust anyone else with my babies!! I will miss her explicitily when both my boys move on to their school careers, but I know Dijana will continue to be a part of our lives. Thank you Dijana for everything you do!!
