Michelle watched our 2.5-year old daughter for 4 full days/wk for 6 months. She was dependable, professional and a pleasure to work with - and our daughter adored her. She's great at involving the kids in the day-to-day, engaging them with age-appropriate toys/puzzles/tasks/activities, etc. She always made an effort to get the children out and about - to play centres, parks, shops, etc. She cooked healthful well-rounded meals and even got our picky eater eating some vegetables. And as far as the paperwork and developmental stages go, she dots her i's and crosses her t's. I would 100% recommend Michelle if you're looking for a great childminder you can count on and trust.
