An Excellent Childminder

Reviewed

I recent lost my brother who was my best friend in a road traffic accident and short story I had to take on caring role for his daughter who was born after his death. Having lost my brother my niece is the last bit of him I have left and she means the world to me.
I am a nurse working with the NHS and needed to find childcare for her so I could return to work after we relocated to our current area.I spent months trolling the internet and and other services to find a childminder that I would be happy with and confident to leave my niece in her care.
From the moment I met Martine I knew she was the one .Her mannerism and people skills are excellent.She has a very lovely manner with all the children in her care.She always seems patient, kind and calm with them and my niece is very happy going there.
My niece has really progressed since she started spending time with Martine and the other children in her care .She has learnt more words and comes home daily singing songs she learnt at the toddler groups she attends with Martine .

Martine is very accommodating,flexible and above all understanding.She sends me daily pics/videos of my niece so I can see what her day entails.She literally makes my life so much easier as she is always very helpful and adaptable and always tries to assist me to ensure Carlissa is always happy and well cared for.
I never review services etc but I had to review Martine as she is really an excellent childminder (I have used services of quite a few childminders as I also have 3 children of my own).
If you are looking for childcare I can reassure you that if you choose Martine to care for your child you will have made absolutely the right decision and you and your child will be very happy with her.
