Mel is a warm, loving, fun and very experienced childminder. My mind is at rest knowing that Eilidh is being well taken care of. In fact Eilidh calls me Mel at home... and I have seen changes in Eilidh in terms of speaking out more and being more confident which is one of the many skills Mel has. They did lots of creative arts and crafts projects, pretty much every day, and went out every day to children's centres, soft play centres etc.

We are very sad to leave as Eilidh is now going into full time nursery.

I cannot recommend Mel enough. She is not only a chindminder to Eilidh but also gives me ideas on things - as a first time parent.
