Pippa has been taking care of my 3 year old son whilst I work since September 2019. During this time I have been more than delighted with the service that Pippa provides. She always keeps me updates throughout the day with photos, information on food eaten, nappies, activities etc. Tristan eats a wide variety of foods whilst with Pippa and he eats better (in terms of eating ALL of his food) there than he does at home! I love how well informed she keeps me. I also get regular updates on key observations and how they relate to his development.
Pippa is very experienced as she has been childminding for many years and has 3 adult children of her own. If you are ever unsure on anything (whether it be funding options or how to tackle issues you are having with your little one) she will usually be able to advise or point you in the right direction, and will always be honest with you.
Pippa’s home and garden are very well equipped for children and are always clean and tidy. There are plenty of fun and educational toys and activities for the children to engage with.
My son settled in well very quickly with Pippa, and I have had no problems with ‘handing him over’ in the mornings. He is happy to go to Pippa and just takes himself straight off into the living room as soon as we get there.
My son absolutely adores Pippa and gets very excited in the morning when I tell him he is going to see her. His speech has come along a lot since being with Pippa as well as his confidence! He is a very active child and Pippa always manages to keep him well entertained and wear him out with fun activities!
I would definitely recommend Pippa as a reliable and trustworthy childminder, who will make any child and parent feel at ease with her care.
