Since my children have joined isbah's childminding, I have seen a major improvement in their development. She does educational work with my daughter, which makes it easier for me to continue at home and supports her learning at home, and my son is also learning through the work isbah does with my daughter, as he has been saying the numbers 1, 2, 3 which he has learnt from isbah.
Isbah is thorough with her daily feedback when I pick up my children. She provided me with a full report of what they ate, how much they ate, how long my son napped for and the timings, as well as the activities they did that day, and the number of dirty nappies which helps me then keep track of it too. She updates me on the new words my son picks up on and repeats, as his speech has been delayed (working with our doctor to get referral for speech therapist) and isbah has been great at helping his speech develop.
I have been lucky and grateful to have found a caring childminder who genuinely cares for my children, and my children adore her, and look forward to seeing her and spending their day with her. She makes sure they have healthy balanced meals everyday, with varied options each day, which my children love.
I had a settling in session for my kids initially, and they warmed up to isbah, and all the children instantly. They happily went to isbah without crying, which was surprisingly good, which meant my children felt safe with her, and I echo that too.
My son has learned to independently eat with a fork and spoon while at isbah's house by watching others. I was worried his development was slower than my daughter's but since starting at the childminders he has been excelling.
Isbah also supported and guided me on how to potty train my daughter when I was going through that stage, and she really helped with that too and made it easier for me to continue the training at home.
Overall, my experience with isbah has been fantastic and would keep my children in her care for as long as I can as it really helps us.

Thank you so much Maheen for lovely and kind words. Both children are so active and adorable. Really enjoyed having them.
Isbah has been looking after my son for over 2 months now. I was worried about leaving him with someone else as I have been the sole carer for him as his dad works away and he also has a couple of allergies.
I should not have worried! Isbah is so kind, reassuring and knowledgeable, able to advise me on certain foods and clothes that work well in a childcare setting. My son absolutely adores her and the other children she looks after, he gets so excited when we pull up on her driveway as he knows exactly where he is! Isbah provides lots of fun and educational activities for a variety of ages and he has already developed so much. We have quite the art collection from his time there already!
Isbah’s house is immaculate, and always kept clean and safe for the little ones.
I fully trust Isbah with my son and would recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and practical childminder.

Thank you so much Eliza for lovely and kind words. Your little son is so adorable, all the children in my care love playing with him.
So pleased to find Isbah, she is a lovely, kind, patient and caring childminder. Always making an effort to do interesting things with the boys and goes out of her way to ensure they enjoy their time with her. They eat so many vegetables with her that they wouldn’t go near with me which is amazing ! I have a wall full of beautiful artwork from the playgroups they attend. They’ve been happy to go from day 1 - I don’t know what I’d do without her! Thanks Isbah 🙏 ps) she also has a lovely clean house with great toys ❤️

Thank you so much f
We employed Isbah to take care of our 2 children when they were little (pre school) and again more recently for our 3rd child and we would have no hesitation in recommending her to look after your child(ren). The children all settled in immediately. It is lovely for the children to be in such a welcoming, homely environment and Isbah always makes a great effort to take the children to play groups, parks, national trust sites and various other places to give the children a good variety of activities. The children also enjoy a good variety of activities when at home with Isbah and some times the children choose to stay home rather than go out because they have so much fun there inside and out.
It is a big decision deciding where to leave your children, but I think that you would be very happy with Isbah.

Thank you so much for your lovely reference Karen. X
My little girl started with Isbah and has settled in really well considering she has barely been left with anyone. Isbah is really warm and caring with the children. She is really thoughtful about their needs and always trying to make sure they feel as settled as possible. We get updates at the end of each day and weekly photos. The children have a good mix of time at home (good space for them to play) and then out at play groups and the National Trust. Isbah provides lunch and tea which is really helpful.

My little one loves going to Isbahs- she provides a wide range of different experiences, regular trips to national trust properties, other activities such as library, parks, children’s activity groups as well as learning through play.
She provides dinner for the kids before pick up which really helps. But most of all she is just naturally great with kids!

My little boy has been coming to Isbah for a year now and he loves it. He settled immediately with her and is always happy to be in her care. They do lots of fun activities, go to local parks, National Trust houses and playgroups etc (when they are open!)
The other children who attend Isbah’s setting are lovely too, she has a lovely atmosphere with all the children. And her house is spotlessly clean! Couldn’t ask for more.

Isbah has been looking after my daughter now, who is 3, for one year. My daughter loves going to Isbah's house. Every day apart from Friday they work on numbers, letters, colours etc but all in a fun environment and I have noticed a significant improvement in her ability. Isbah takes my daughter to and from nursery and is well know within the school and in local childminding circles which is lovely as my daughter knew a lot of the children she is at pre school with even before attending. Every day they have fruit (which she didn't like before). And every day we get a full briefing as to how she has got on and if children have been good they get a sticker. I would have no hesitation in recommending her. .
