My son Benjamin (15 months) has been with Clare part-time now for 6 months. Clare is very professional, extremely reliable and the level of communication is top notch. In terms of her care for my son - you couldn't ask for more. He has progressed well in his communication, has developed a great love of books and is throughly stimulated with different activities each week. Clare's facilities are really impressive from the fully kitted playroom to the excellent and extensive children-friendly garden. Benjamin has been on trips to the park, childminders groups, as well as been involved in a birthday party where (young) friends and childminders came to enjoy!You can see that she thoroughly enjoys looking after all the children and treats them as if they are part of her lovely family. I would thoroughly recommend Clare to anyone looking for a wonderful childminder.
