About me
My team (I work with 2 experienced assistants) has a total of 17 years experience running my own supplementary school in Longsight, Manchester. worked with all types of children. I’m a fun, bubbly individual who loves to see children grow and learn. We have seen the importance of care and nurture from a young age, which sets children up for a brighter future.
Running a supplementary school really opened my eyes to how parents are struggling to manage with young children, along with all the other jobs in life, and the effect it could have on their children. Sunnah Stars is a safe, warm and caring space where children play, learn and develop. We love watching them accomplish things and reach new milestones.
We are a registered childminding provision. We follow the EYFS, and offer funded places. This is the only Islamic childcare provider in South Manchester, welcoming all families into a warm, inclusive environment.
