Cherubs Childminding have been taking care of my cheeky, challenging, lively little boy for 2 years. My littlest started going to Cherubs when his big brother started school and we didn't want the logistics of him remaining in the nursery they had both been going to. If I had found Cheryl and her crew sooner my big boy would have been in her setting until he started school too, as it is he had the benefit of going to Cherubs after school instead. My little guy has really benefited from the home from home supportive setting that Cheryl offers that you simply can't get in a nursery. I wish we'd found her sooner! The children are supported, encouraged and feel cared for, Cheryl takes time to keep parents well informed and included. I've got boxes of crafts as they're always making things, visiting interesting places, and Cheryl has given me loads of photos of my child that as parents we've loved going through. Cheryl's experience and her commitment to the children is obvious, she's never let us down (never closed unexpectedly, never called in sick - we've never had to look for emergency short term care since we found her) and as a family we couldn't recommend her enough.
She didn't even close when she had her beautiful baby girl earlier this year, and the standard of care she provides has remained consistently high.
I'm almost sad that my littlest boy starts big school next month, as he's been so happy in Cheryl's setting. Cheryl's really spoiled all the kids this summer, with trips to the seaside, farm and fairs, making sure my little guy's having the kind of summer I'd love to have given him if I wasn't stuck in work!
Thank you Cheryl, you've been a really important positive part of my little boy's life and I would happily recommend you to any parent who's looking for a secure, safe and fun environment for their little darling.
Definite five stars :oD
