Best childminders in the world!

Ben started with Debbie and Tony in 2013 when he was around 9 months old. I was really nervous about leaving him to go back to work but when I met Debbie and Tony for a meeting I decided instantly that I wanted Ben to go to them, they put my mind at rest a great deal. I left Ben for a settle in day and it was brilliant. Debbie kept me updated all day and sent me plenty of pictures to show that Ben was having a great time on his first day! I could not fault Debbie and Tony in any way at all everything they do is perfect and Ben has come on leaps and bounds since being with them he has learned a great deal and also has great friends who he loves! Ben is now 2 years old and when I go to pick him up after work he wants to stay and play for longer! Overall I am extremely happy with the service that Debbie and Tony provide and couldnt ask for anything more. I would say that if you are looking for a childminder look no further! Thank you Debbie and Tony and Laura of course on all your help and for everything you do :)

Count my lucky stars every day for finding Adele

There is so much to say about Adele and how superb she has been since we found her, I thank my lucky stars that we came across Adele and chose her to look after our son. He started when he was 1 and is due to finish in September to start nursery and I wish he could stay with Adele forever. Our son has learnt so much through Adele, she puts 100% into the job and you can tell that she genuinely loves doing it and loves the children. She has been amazing at supporting me with everything over the years giving me advice if needed. She follows the curriculum really well and her activities and learning are brilliant, it pays off as our son is very forward for his age with his learning and speech and I know this has a lot to Adele, he adores and trusts her so much. She sends us plenty of pictures daily and informs us of what food etc they will be having. I’m so happy that we found Adele and wouldn’t change it for the world! I will be very sad in September when our son moves onto nursery.

Thank you, Helen, for your kind review regarding childcare. It has been an absolute pleasure caring for Elliott, and I will sincerely miss him. I appreciate both of you collaborating with me to support Elliott in becoming a confident, independent learner. He will integrate smoothly into the nursery environment and will have no difficulty forming many new friendships.

I have now been awarded the Certificate of Excellence! Due to the review.

Thank you again Adele. See you next week xx
