We knew that after sending our first son to Lisa's (and seeing him flourish into the lovely, fun, outdoorsy and creative boy he now is) that we'd definitely be sending out next child to Lisa (even though I chose not to back to my 9-5 job, I knew at least some time in Lisa's care was 100% worth it for he's own development).
Needless to say that our second son who started in September 2020 also thoroughly enjoys his days at Lisa's. I was slightly worried as he was such a clingy Mummy's boy, especially being home with me for so long, but he surprised me - he settled very quickly and is always so excited to go to 'Lee-Lee's house"! Lisa is once again helping our little boy to thrive, learn and socialize. He's made some really close friends which is so lovely to hear him talk about. I absolutely love how well Lisa and Rich communicate with us, their relationship with our kids, the digital updates on tapestry and sometimes on whatsapp during the day, and the photos - wow. Lisa is so amazing at taking natural photos of our children - I have started printing framing some of them!
The thing that sets Lisa and Rich apart for me is their passion and dedication for what they do - caring for children, treating them as one big family and helping them thrive in an inspiring, fun, creative and safe environment. I'm also very impressed with how often Lisa updates toys and play equipment - creating more outdoor play opportunities - her garden is like a kids heaven, so many amazing things to do!
We all truly see Lisa and Rich as a part of our family, and not having any family near by us it is a real blessing and we are so grateful to have her in our life. Thank you Lisa and Rich for all you do! We cannot recommend you highly enough. A*****

You have 2 beautiful boys that have always been a complete joy. Each one has been confident, happy and caring. The bonds that they have formed with the other children and us has made them a valuable and much loved part of our family. Such bright intelligent children with a love of learning makes them a total joy to be around. We are very lucky that you chose us, thank you for allowing us to be a part of their lives xxx
We found Lisa completely by luck at the beginning and she has been our Angel for the last four months, both Rich and Lisa are great and Our little Sofia enjoys very much the time she spends with them.
She is a lockdown baby and was only used to be with us but surprisingly did not take even one day to get settled with them.
She has learnt so much ( too much maybe🤩) , i would say they love what they do , they are caring and loving and treat the kids like if they were their own in my opinion.
We could not be happier with them, very good professionals and people.

Thank you so much for your lovely review xxx We do love what we do, the children in our care mean the world to us and become very much part of our family. We enjoy our time with them so in turn they enjoy being with us. We feel incredibly privileged to be able to care for your gorgeous little girl, Sofia is a delight to care for xxx
My daughter has been going to Lisa for over four years now before/after school and in the school holidays. Lisa is an amazing childminder and we were very lucky to find her when we moved to MSN. My daughter loves going to Lisa's everyday and really does feel like part of the family. The interaction with all the children in the setting is amazing and they all have so much fun together. There is also a lot of learning through play which is very helpful. Lisa's home is fabulous and there is so much outdoor space for children to enjoy - it really is a home from home. I would have no hesitation in recommending Lisa - you will be very lucky if she is able to care for your child they will have the greatest time and you will be happy knowing she is in the best care possible.

My little boy has been going to Lisa's for over a year now and he loves it! He has made some lovely friends and is always happy when I drop him off ( which is a relief as a mum!).
C loves being outside and has been on trips to Longleat, play parks and the woods to name a few. Lisa has a perfect outdoor garden space for children to play and a hut which is used for seasonal events which is fab!
Lisa is an amazing childminder, she puts you at ease, has a great relationship with the children and always strives to bring out the best in them. I would highly recommend.

My son Ralph has been going to Lisa and Rich for a couple of month now. I looked around many different childcare options but being a first time mum I was very fussy and like most parents i wanted to best for my son however nothing really stood out to me when i looked around different childcare options, for a while then a space became available with Lisa and Rich. The day my son met lisa and rich he walked in and spoke/ played with them like he had been going there for months. They are both understanding, lovely people who communicate well, let the children treat there house as a home and take the children out regularly. I love looking on my sons profile after a day of him being there to see what hes been up too which Lisa and Rich update after every session there, hes always doing messy and fun things which i absolutely love and always looks so happy. Lisa and rich work along side you therefore makes things easier for them and you when teaching new things. Could not recommend Lisa and Rich enough.

Lisa is so kind and caring and provides such a wide variety of activities and experiences to our little boy. He simply loves his time with Lisa and Rich. Lisa came highly recommended to us and we have not been disappointed at all.

Thank you so much for your kind words :) We love what we do, having such adorable, gorgeous children makes it a real pleasure. Thank you for allowing us to a part of his life xxx
My son jack who is 3 has been with lisa on a Monday since July. Jack absolutely loves it with lisa and his new friends and talk very highly of his days here. Although jack already attends other nursery’s I’ve really noticed the difference in jack general learning and progression since being with lisa just 1 day a week. I love how lisa makes learning fun and brings nature into the classroom.
Lisa is always so friendly and welcoming with a beautiful spacious warming home and wonderful garden.
I think it’s wonderful how lisa takes the children on day trips, recently it was longleat 😊
I hope to continue my Monday’s with lisa till jack starts school. If you are looking for a honest trustworthy childminder, lisa is the one.

Thank you so very much Alice, such lovely kind words xxx We love Jack coming here, he is a pleasure to care for x
Lisa has looked after my son since he was 10months old and is now just over 1. When I first started looking for a childminder her profile really stood out as she loves being outdoors, encourages free play and goes out on day trips.
C loves going to Lisa's and has a wonderful time playing with the other children, her home is amazing for free play as she has such an open space both inside and outside.
C has grown in confidence since starting at Lisa's and his character is showing through more and more, which I believe is because of the new situations and interacting he is doing with other children.
Highly recommended!

I was dreading going back to work when my son was 12 months old. We looked around months in advance for a childminder we liked. As soon as we met Lisa we knew our little boy would be in safe hands and our minds would be at ease. Not only could we clearly see how passionate and dedicated Lisa was about quality childcare, but her house was very clean, tidy with plenty of lovely outdoor space - which we knew would be a big hit with our son!
The settling in days went well, although he once got a bit upset and Lisa sang 'his song' to him to calm him, and he fell asleep in her arms - without me even telling her it was his song!
I'm always so excited to hear how his day has been, and Lisa is great at keeping you posted and often sending pictures during the day which puts a smile on my face. Within no time at all he was toddling down the corridor with barely a look backwards to say bye! I was so pleased and relieved that he was loving his time at Lisa's. He'd made so many lovely friends and talks about them all the time.
Lisa's passion for outdoor and creative free play has helped our son has really thrive, as he loves the outdoors and is such a happy, free spirit. Lisa also managed to help resolve the occasional angry tantrums and help him learn to share within the first few weeks. He's since been an angel and is a complete joy to be around. He also loves interacting with the slightly older children which is so lovely to see and hear about.
It really is like he goes to be looked after by a member of our family - but with all the benefits of Lisa's professional experience. Lisa often sends us interesting relevant articles or information on children's health/wellbeing/learning development, which is really helpful and it feels as if we are a team working together on our son's development. We even decided to keep him attending Lisa's whilst I'm on my maternity leave with our second child - as he loves his days there so much!
I honestly cannot recommend Lisa highly enough. We feel so lucky to have her support with our little boy, and have no doubt that you would feel the same way with your little one in her care.

Thank you so much for such a wonderful review xxx It is greatly appreciated and means the world to me to know that you trust me with your gorgeous precious little boy who i adore xxx
Our daughter has been attending Lisa's since September 2016 before and after school. We are so pleased that we found her. We did look at a lot of childminders and nurseries but none of them felt right. As soon as I met Lisa, and went into her home, I knew this was the person I wanted to look after our daughter. The care and continuity that Lisa provides are outstanding and is above and beyond what we could have hoped for. I am always delighted to hear about the activities our daughter has done with Lisa and these are varied and spontaneous. Lisa's home is always inviting and clean with lots of outdoor space which my daughter expecially loves. I cannot recommend Lisa enough and I beleive she would be able to offer any child in her care everything that you as a parent could wish for; she certainly has for us.
