Feel so lucky to have found Kerry, she was amazing with our children. Kerry was so patient, kind and reassuring. She built such a great connection with our children surprisingly quick. I always struggled to get my children to leave in the evenings as they were always so busy having so much fun. We sadly moved out of the area, but I wish we could have taken Kerry with us. Could not recommend her more.
As a first time parent, it was very difficult deciding where to send our daughter for her first nursery/childminder experience. I feel so blessed that we found Kerry. From our first meeting she was welcoming, kind and hospitable. She made our daughter feel comfortable and at home there. It was never a struggle to get her ready to “go to kerrys house”; she was always excited to go. Couldn’t have had a better experience with her.
We first met Kerry when our little boy was six months old and he immediately warmed to her, putting his hand out to touch her and smiling. That told us everything we needed to know! He went to Kerry four days a week from 11 months to 20 months, when we moved out of the area, and we were so sad to leave. Kerry is kind, caring and really loves the kids she looks after. She does thoughtful things like buy presents she knows the kids like and she made veggie meals just for our son, three meals a day of homecooked food. We will all miss her, especially our little boy!
My son is 2 and a half and joined Kerry early last year. I am so happy that I found Kerry as my son settled in with Kerry so quickly since joining I can see how much he has developed since going to her. He talks very fondly of her when he's not there as she has created a really nurturing environment for the children she looks after. She knows my sons likes and dislikes and has always takes the time to tell us about his day and sends photos and updates during the day. The setting is great and feels really homely, there is a garden too which my son really enjoys. She provides a range of activities that are stimulating and fun for the children and he always comes back home surprising me with something new he has learnt. The meals she provides for them are healthy and I can see that a lot of care goes into the preparation. I can see that my son is really happy with her, which is so comforting. Kerry has been very accommodating as she is very flexible with mine and my partner's work schedule. Kerry is truly an amazing childminder and would without any hesitation recommend her.
I was super anxious, having become a parent for the first time at the start of lockdowns, at the prospect of finding someone to watch my son. I'm so happy I found Kerry on this site, my son settled in quickly and is growing and learning so much with her. It's clear she genuinely cares about the kids she looks after, and I love getting the photos of my son throughout the day while I'm working. She's also been very flexible where I've needed to adjust days or hours due to work or appointments. I can't recommend her highly enough!
