Our little one has had a wonderful time with Barbora and we couldn’t recommend her enough. We are relocating and leaving Barbora’s has been the hardest part of the move. Barbora is a passionate and caring childminder who wants to do the absolute best for the children.
We had previously been at a nursery but we got frustrated with the constant changes in her key worker and lack of consistency. Barbora was recommended to us and we were lucky that she had a space available at the time.
Since going to Barbora’s Childminding our little one has come on leaps and bounds developmentally. She's grown in confidence, and now she’s growing up to be kind, thoughtful well mannered. She’s built a lovely bond with the other children in her care and it’s so obvious it’s a great experience for all the children.
We get daily updates and pictures via WhatsApp as well as weekly menus, activities planned for the week and themes/books/topics the children are focussing on. It’s always easy to get hold of Barbora throughout the day if needed which is great.
We really like that the children go out everyday to a different playgroup or out on a trip so it feels as though they are getting the best dedicated care but also socialising with wider groups of children.
Our little one talks about Barbora all the time at home and is always excited to go in the mornings. It’s the best decision we made for her and we can only hope we find someone even half as brilliant in our new town!

Barbora's setting is a place where children thrive, learn, and grow. We greatly value her dedication and individual approach to our child. The hours spent outside every day, healthy meals, and a variety of daily activities focused on all aspects of a child's development, such as dance classes, library story time, museum visits, and trips to various parks, are truly exceptional. Children socialize beyond their 'group' at playgroups and are encouraged to become independent. Barbora follows a pre-school curriculum and the learning continues through play and involving children in activities such as baking or exploring nature.
Barbora is energetic and kind, and children love her. She is very transparent with parents and sends regular updates and photos from their days.
The two years with Barbora have been essential for our daughter's development and well-being. She became confident and is absolutely ready to start school.

Barbora has been an absolute blessing for our family! Our child looks forward to every visit with her, and it’s evident how much joy and excitement each day brings. Barbora creates a nurturing and stimulating environment where the children thrive. The variety of activities she plans is exceptional, with a wonderful mix of educational and fun experiences. Our child particularly enjoys the creative arts and crafts sessions and the outdoor play in the garden. Barbora’s attention to each child’s individual needs and her dedication to their well-being are truly commendable. Communication is always clear and consistent, with regular updates on our child’s development and plenty of photos to share in the memories. We highly recommend Barbora’s childminding services for anyone looking for a caring and enriching experience for their child!

Above all our daughter is so happy going to Barbora’s every time! There is a weekly program that they follow and it’s great to see them out and about constantly learning new things. Our favourites are: library sessions and farms/ parks trips. There is always clear communication on weekly and daily basis on plans and learning progress and lots of pictures to capture these beautiful moments. Really recommend Barbora and her setting!

My daughter has been with Barbora since she was 2 and two months. It will be 2 years soon and we absolutely love it as does my daughter. She has grown to be such an independent little lady.
Setting: Barbora offers a wide variety of toys and activities with careful consideration to weather and season. The children often pick their toys, activities making them independent decision makers. She has a big garden and lots of room in her home. The food is nourishing and she often incorporates different cultural cuisines which helps the children learn about different cultures and be more acceptable to new flavors.
Communication: Barbora keeps us informed with growth reports and daily pictures of how’s the day is going. We also get monthly updates of the plan (books, events, activities) for the upcoming month. She follows the pre-school curriculum with lots of aids and activities. My daughter can spell and write her and her peers’ names, has perfect number & alphabet (almost) recognition and can count up to 20 with ease.
Highly recommended.

We have been with Barbora for more than a year and half and have found her to be an excellent childminder.
Professionalism: It is clear that Barbora understands the Early Years Curriculum and how to continually develop children’s progress no matter what their starting points are. She has a thoughtfully planned curriculum based on seasons, festivals, books and the children’s interests. Barbora often takes the children on excursions to the library, toddler classes and national parks to enrich their learning.
Communication: As parents we are updated on their progress on a daily basis through photos and videos. Barbora often sends us the latest articles or publications relating to developments in education or health advice to make sure as parents we are kept up to date locally and nationally. If there have been bumps or accidents, Barbora ensures that we are notified on pick up.
Setting: Barbora has a lovely big home and garden with lots of space for children to play and learn. The resources and activities are always well planned and relevant to our son’s interests and development. He also loves Barbora’s dog Monty and has developed a great bond and affection with him.
Overall, we have been delighted that our son has had Barbora as his childminder and would highly recommend to anyone. He loves going and always comes back with a huge smile and lots of stories to tell.
