Clare has looked after my eldest daughter for 3 years and we moved my youngest to Clare soon after. This was the best decision we made. Clare is an excellent childminder who is very organised and reliable. Clare takes my youngest daughter to playgroups and will set up fun and exciting activities for the afternoons. Both my girls thoroughly enjoy their time at Clare’s and will often ask to go and play there during the holidays. Clare’s communication is excellent and we receive regular feedback on how our girls are progressing. We have full confidence with leaving our girls in Clare’s care. Clare is very proactive and personable. We would highly recommend.

Clare is amazing ! My two sons have been with clare for the last 6 years. My youngest boy has severe epilepsy (Dravets Syndrome) and is very delayed. I never worry about my youngest when he is with Clare as she is brilliant with him, she is really good with children with special needs. He loves going to clare's, he even wants to go at weekends when we drive past :) Clare is brilliant, very organised, the house is lovely and set up with everything the children need and all the children there are very happy there, she cooks great meals and the boys love it. I cannot recommend clare enough she is brilliant.

Clare has looked after both of my boys since they were 6 months old and they are really a part of her family.
From day one we have all been made to feel welcome.
The care the children get is amazing. The assessments, activities, meal times and the access to all of the play facilities is great. Clare takes the children to playgroups, dancing and messy monkeys
I would recommend Clare to anyone looking for childcare. I feel confident and safe leaving my children and know that in her care they are receiving a lot more care than the five stars I am giving her on this site.
The new experiences my children get to try are again amazing. The different foods and meals supplied are all home made and of exceptional quality.
Five out of five more like 100 out of 100
Thank you Clare x

It was the first time I had used a childminder and I was a bit aprehensive as I had seen Clare at school but not actually known anyone that had used her . At the time my children were 3 and 7 and there now 14 and 18 and still love Clare to bits .I had no need to worry as from day one she made my children feel welcome. At the time I was starting a new job and the children were starting new childcare and after the first day I knew I had made the right choice choosing Clare .
She is a a brilliant childminder and kept me up to date with what the children had been doing and how they had been during the day . My son could be clingy at times with me when I left him at other places but he never once cried or said he didnt want to go . I would fully recommend her 100% .

Clare was my sons childminder from March 2015 until I finished my degree in 2018. I was looking for a childminder who could provide an engaging and friendly environment, was reliable, and was someone who my son would enjoy spending time with. Clare exceeded all of these expectations!
As my son was older, she always made sure that his needs were catered for, as well as for the younger guests. From days out to the local parks in the school holidays, hiring bouncy castles and teaching him how to bake and cook, he very much enjoyed his time with Clare.
When collecting Sam, the laughs that could be heard from the picture and painting decorated porch (courtesy of the children) before having even entered the house was a clear indication of the happiness of the children.
If you are looking for a childminder, then I would definitely recommend Clare. Her house was a home away from home for my son, and we both look back on his time spent there with fondness.
