We have been so happy with the care Steph has provided to our girls over the years. From the very first day, she made us feel completely at ease with her warm and welcoming approach.
Our girls always came home full of stories about the fun activities they’d enjoyed, from crafts and outdoor play to story time at the library and music and movement sessions at toddler group.
Steph kept us updated throughout the day and always took the time to discuss our children’s progress. Her setting is safe, clean, and full of stimulating toys and learning materials.
We couldn’t ask for a better childminder and would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a nurturing, caring, and professional environment.

We had an amazing experience with Steph. She’s incredibly reliable and warm, and it’s clear she genuinely cares about the children she looks after. Our daughter absolutely loved spending time with her. We were recommended to her, and it’s easy to see why. She’s a fantastic communicator, always quick to respond to any questions or concerns—often within minutes. Plus, she’s very experienced and a great mother herself, which shows in how she cares for the children. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Steph was childminder for my little boy for most of a year when he was 2 years old. Steph runs a home from home environment and my son settled quickly into her care

Steph has cared for my sons for the past eight years, and I can honestly say she has been an incredible part of their childhood. From the very beginning, she created a warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment where my children have always felt completely at home.
She is kind, caring, and patient, it’s clear how much she genuinely loves what she does. My boys have always looked forward to spending time with her — she’s not just a childminder, but someone who has helped them grow, learn, and feel supported every step of the way.
As a parent, it’s such a comfort to know your children are in safe and loving hands, and that’s exactly what Steph provides. We are so grateful for everything she has done for our family over the years, and we couldn’t recommend her highly enough.
