Our story..
The Little Nook was created from both professional experience and personal conviction.
Before starting this journey, Ishak built his career in finance, working in structured, regulated environments where organisation, accountability and safeguarding responsibilities were paramount. Fathea worked as a medical secretary within healthcare settings, where confidentiality, attention to detail and care for people were at the heart of her role.
Over the years, we have grown not only professionally, but personally — especially through becoming parents ourselves. We began to reflect on the kind of environment we wanted our own children to experience: one that is safe, calm, structured and nurturing.
We realised that the skills we had developed in our careers — organisation, professionalism, safeguarding awareness, communication and responsibility — could be channelled into something meaningful for the next generation.
The Little Nook is built on those foundations.
It is a home-based setting designed to combine warmth with structure, care with professionalism, and emotional support with strong early foundations.
We are passionate about creating a space where children feel secure, valued and encouraged to grow with confidence — and where parents feel reassured every single day.
