Hi, I'm Gergana Kostova.
A warm home-from-home where little ones learn, play & grow
Hello, I’m Geri, an Ofsted-registered childminder and the owner of Little Funky Monkey. I provide a warm, safe and nurturing home-from-home environment where children can feel happy, secure and confident. I believe children learn best through play, exploration and real-life experiences. My setting offers a calm, natural, Curiosity Approach and Montessori-inspired environment with plenty of opportunities for sensory play, creativity, books, outdoor learning and local outings. I work closely with parents to understand each child’s individual routines, interests and developmental needs, helping every child learn and grow at their own pace.
