Darlena is such a lovely person, she truly cares about the children's development and offers them a huge range of activities and outdoor adventures. Her house and garden are perfect, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Darlena as a childminder, she's so easy to work with, and her daughter is adorable too. Our son went from 7 months to 18 months, only stopping due to maternity leave. We were so lucky to find Darlena! She's one in a million. She provides healthy snacks and meals so the children all eat the same thing together, and saves having to do a packed lunch! She promotes autonomy in the children, encouraging them to learn so many useful things, whilst having fun in a loving and safe environment.
