Our little boy has been looked after by Paula since last summer. Paula provides a fantastic childminding service, Ted settled in straight away and is always very happy to be dropped off at Paula’s. He loves being with the other children in the dedicated play area and they all play very happily together. Paula keeps them busy with trips out and lots of fun activities. We have noticed how much Paula teaches Ted too and feel that he is developing really well under her supervision. Top class care!

Paula looked after both my children for 2 years, and the service she provides is wonderful. Both my children loved going there and settled in straight away. She does lots of activities with them and their confidence really grew going there. Couldn't recommend her more! ?

Overall
I sent my (sometimes difficult) little girl to Paula and Rachel and had been really worried about how she would act for a childminder in a home setting with other children as she needs a lot of attention, but I needn't have worried they were fabulous. They were really lovely and great with the kids, but also so professional and Katie absolutely loved going to them. They went above and beyond taking the children out to lovely places and also working with me and the nursery on Katie's behaviour. She was absolutely heartbroken when I no longer needed her to go there and still talks about them now.
