Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for Christin. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
We have two children, 3 and 18 months, who have been with Christine and Melissa for 6 months. Before moving them to childminding we had previously tried putting them both in to a local nursery, which hadn't been a success. The difference finding Christine and Melissa has made to our family is phenomenal. Both of our girls love going every morning. Our youngest often cries when she realises she isn't going to the childminders at the weekend and they both run in every morning, excited for the day. Christine and Melissa offer a homely environment, the house is dedicated to their business and there is more than you could ever imagine for the little ones to play with. They go on brilliant days out every week, teaching our girls lots, which we learn about every evening when they get home. They offer nutritional meals and are really accommodating to fussy eaters (our oldest particularly). Most importantly, you know that the children are well looked after and loved whilst they are there. Could not recommend more highly!
