Marilyn has been our childminder since my daughter was 6 weeks old, she is now nearly 9.
We do not see Marilyn as our childminder, more a part of our family and couldnt be without her. (I often joke with Marilyn that she will have my little moo until her late 20's)

Marilyn engages with the children, taking them out to parks, groups, trips out, painting, playtime - the highlight of my day was reading the daily diary and the progress reports I would get with pictures. These were excellent as it meant milestones were being captured, I wasnt missing out.
You could tell on pick up your child had a good day, were well stimulated and cared for.

My daughter now goes to Marilyn for afterschool hours, if Marilyn is on holiday always asks - when will Marilyn be picking me up - another excellent sign.

Marilyn has also been a great source to help and support offering advice; it was Marilyn that noticed my daughter is very sensitive to loud noises and impromptu situations. Her vast experience helped guide us on how best to manage and work with our daughter.

Quite Simply Put - Marilyn is FANTASTIC.
