About Me
As an Ofsted registered childminder, I am dedicated to providing the best childminding service to families and their children.
I enjoy providing a stimulating and playful environment for children through messy play, play dough, cooking, art and craft and free play. I have a routine of taking children to play groups, children’s centres, parks, libraries, baby and toddler groups, museums and much much more.
I live with my husband, my six and a half years old son, my mother in law and a cat.
I keep updating parents with information and provide honest feedback regarding their child’s day to day routine, including what they have been doing, what they have enjoyed or disliked, how long they have slept for (if applicable), what they have been eaten and their general behaviour. I do this by providing parents with a daily activity record that details the above.
The environment that I have created is warm and open, where children feel safe enough to ask questions, explore and seek answers. Establishing a routine for children is one of the most important things that you can do to make them feel safe and secure. I approach each child as an individual with their own respected talents. I believe that each child is unique and will grow at his or her own pace. I encourage children to reach new heights by ensuring that they are supported through their learning and development.
I respect all children and their families from irrespective of cultures and backgrounds.

Ewelina is a wonderful childminder. She first looked after my older son when he was 15 months (until now, 4.5 years old). I was so nervous about sending him to a childminder, especially as he was very clingy with me, but I shouldn’t have worried because she has been fantastic with him.
When I went back to work after having my second son (when he was 9 months old), I felt much better knowing he would be with Ewelina! She does so many fun activities at her home and goes on many excursions like the zoo, parks, local groups, museums, soft play, libraries and more. She has taught my boys so many things through play and they love her! I would highly recommend Ewelina to any parent.

I have my 1 year daughter Anna staying with Ewelina for about 3 months. This is her first time staying with a child-minder. She was largely encouraged to walk by Ewelina, and visited so many new playgroups, libraries and playgrounds. We found she dances with different gestures when we eat in a pub😆 From her photos, I can see her gradually unfolding herself with other kids. I’m very lucky to send my daughter to Ewelina. Now Anna has got a nursery place to join her sister and she settles easily there. Ewelina, sincere thanks to you and your family’s help and care to Anna.

Ewelina took care of our daughter when she was 8 mo. She progressed amazingly fast thanks to the wide range of indoor ( books, painting, toys, songs ...) and outdoor ( playground, walks in woods ...) activities Ewelina is proposing.
Ewelina is active, patient, caring and focusing on well being of your child as well as on his/her development.
She has a daily routine but adapt to kids needs or parents specifics demands.
Our daughter is now 15 mo, and we are moving back to France and are so sad to leave Ewelina and her family ( Husband and Son are very warm :))
Do not hesitate to contact me if you want further information, I will be happy to share our experience and strongly recommend Ewelina.

Ewelina is active and takes the kids to the park and outdoor activities every day. Our daughter loves going to Ewelina and sometmes requests to go to her. Ewelina makes healthy snacks for the kids and is a very pleasant person. She is someone that I enjoy being around and see her as an excellent role model for our daughter.
Happy to give direct references if desired.

Ewelina is a fantastic childminder who I would highly recommend to any mum. As a new mum, I was very nervous about finding a stranger to take care of my daughter (20 months old) and Ewelina made the process so easy and fluid. My husband and I are were so impressed and grateful for the care Ewelina showed our daughter and how welcoming her home was. Ewelina is very active with the children she takes care of, as well as creative and attentive to their needs. I really couldn't of asked for more in a childminder.
Thank you again Ewelina, you have really made an impact on Amber's first stages in life!

Ewelina has been looking after my 3.5 year old daughter for 5 days a week for nearly 2 years and I have to say she's practically one of the family. She is a fantastic childminder, with my daughters best interests at heart. She often goes above and beyond what is expected, taking her on frequent activities at any given chance or finding innovative educational games to play at home if needing to stay in. She cooks healthy fresh food on a daily basis and only offers healthy snacks too. She keeps us regularly updated with our daughter's development, whilst asking us if there are any supplementary areas we would like her to focus on. My daughter can be quite shy, and she makes that she feels comfortable in group surroundings without feeling too scared and has a great knack of softly encouraging to take part in new activities/taste new foods/ generally have new experiences. We have the upmost respect and gratitude to Ewelina for looking after our daughter and my daughter looks forward to going to Ewelina on a daily basis. Shes an absolute gem and I would 100% recommend her.

I have to say my partner and I feel truly blessed we met Ewelina at one of the Speed Minding Events in Islington when we were looking for someone to look after our son. I feel like I met the right person for the job instantly and she has proved to be an amazing carer of Mason. I can go to work never having to worry about him as I know how well he is looked after and how much he enjoys going there, I've seen their bond grow and I feel secure knowing that Mason has a warm, safe and caring environment to thrive in when he's not with us. I feel his development has gone from strength to strength under Ewelina's care especially his speech and understanding. I feel that she always does her best and brings variety, learning and fun to his day and we really can see what a great childminder she is. Would 100% recommend Ewelina to anyone thinking of childcare options.
