Toyin cared for our son, Teo, when he was around 10 months old. With our families living abroad, Teo was not used to being with other people besides my partner and me, and he would only fall asleep while breastfeeding. The positive impact Toyin had on Teo was incredible. He started napping without needing to breastfeed, and he became more eager to play and explore.
Toyin’s daily routine with Teo was full of enriching activities. She took him to playgroups, libraries, and parks every day. From caring for him when he wasn’t feeling well to preparing food he loved and, most importantly, playing and having fun along the way. Her care and attention made a huge difference.
Toyin is an amazing childminder who truly knows and understands each child, even in a busy role where every child is unique. She got to know our son so well that she could instantly tell when “he was being himself,” and we are so grateful for that connection.
Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for our family, Toyin. We'll keep you in our minds and hope our paths cross again in the future.

Toyin took care of my little girl Neo Rose for around 6 months 'full time' Monday to Friday from 8am to 6pm whilst me and my husband were at work.
Neo was always so excited to see Toyin, she was always babbling about going to see Toyin when I was pushing her along in her buggy on the way and gave her a huge beaming smile when she opened the door! Toyin is such an active childminder, not only does she have a super well equipped and safe home with lots of toys, role play equipment and educational items, but she is always out and about with the kids - i don't know how she does it, she is superhuman! Toyin takes the children to the library, to local playgroups, gardening groups and other seasonal events around the area and even up to things like the Tate Modern, so I feel like my daughter has been well socialised as well as protected through Toyin's great care. The food that Toyin serves is also very healthy and Neo has grown up strong and happy. I should add that we only left Toyin because we moved internationally away from London and she gave us a sweet present and card at the end and checked in on us via whatsapp after we left. Toyin you are one in a million <3
Thank you for everything Toyin!

Awww amazing review Cherry, honestly I always told you Neo was so easy to look after she was very expressive in what she wants and doesn’t and always happy to come to a middle ground.
She definitely made an impression on the boys. we would never forget her. And you cherry and James were the best❤️ and I wish you nothing but the best in the new life you’re embarking on in Australia love Toyin
When my child is with her am at rest cause my child reacts to her the same way he reacts to me. She’s very polite, soft spoken and professional. I admire her patience's, care, love and my child is always happy when he sees her. She’s always taking my son to various play groups including library and am very impressed with his development especially his interest in browsing books and playing with other kids. I highly recommend her to other parents/ caregivers.

Toyin looked after my son from 2 years old until he started nursery and my daughter from 9 months old until reception. She is like a second mum to my daughter and still looks after her even at 11 years old. Toyin was always very patient with my children and understood their needs. She can easily communicate with children. She has an excellent routine and is very respectfull. She is very clean and cook for the children, something I personally enjoyed as it was stressful for me. I will recommend Toyin to anyone looking for a childminder as she has a good heart. Moreover she charges reasonably...

Thanks Murielle such lovely comments. I am always humbled by parents and the children I look after, it’s been a privilege and honour to be part of your life.
Really happy to have meet Toyin and I always feel confident leaving my 5year old son in her care.
My son enjoys the activities that she takes him on and she is always flexible and accommodating with me if I am running late from work or when I ask her to look after my son.
Would definitely recommend her with no hesitations.
Thank you for your support Toyin appreciate it.
