We have been attending this setting for over 5 years. Our first child stated in 2015/2016 and he thrived. He was well prepared for starting school; writing, potty trained and able to get himself dressed. My husband and I knew we would not attend any other setting when our daughter was born. Despite moving away from the area we were willing to travel the distance to take our daughter to this setting. We were confident that the personal care, love and attention that is given to each child was second to none. Gloria appreciates each child for their individuality and nourishes this. We see Gloria as very professional and a childminder that is able to meet the requisite needs of each child in her setting. The setting is never overcrowded so each child get the desired attention and is able to thrive very quickly. We highly recommend this setting to anyone looking for childcare. It’s been the best experience.

Gloria is a professional childminder. She loves the kids and treat them as her own. My child is so happy going to hers in the morning.
The settling period was of extreme importance for all of us involved. It did make us at ease and knowing that my child is in good hands.

Gloria has been looking after our 2 year old since April last year. Her set up is similar or even better than a nursery and keep rotating daily.The moment Gloria opens her door he will run inside with the biggest of smile. Now my son doesn't like to come home and he does long hours there. He's just enjoying himself so much.
Gloria is very flexible with her hours as she looks after him from 0700-1900 thrice a week. She even accomodate us on a Saturday when he was doing his trial.
She will only call if there is an issue but that has happened once when my son had a temperature related to covid.
I would recommend Gloria services without a doubt. She's is great with the kids.
