Adele has been in my sons life for seven years now, from age 3 to 10 (at present), and we honestly couldn’t imagine our lives without her. She has consistently gone above and beyond in every possible way, providing not just outstanding care but genuine love, support and stability. My son absolutely adores her and she has truly become a part of our family. She supported me throughout three long years of my nursing degree, always going out of her way to help whenever she could, and she has also been there for me during other personal moments too, in more ways than you'd expect from a childminder, she's always ready to offer a chat, a listening ear or even just a comforting cup of tea.

She creates a warm, safe and fun environment where children genuinely thrive and I’ve always had complete trust in her, her family and the other chimps in her care. Her communication is brilliant, she’s incredibly reliable and she understands children in such a natural and intuitive way. I like to think my son has a real “home from home” experience when he’s with her.

We are so grateful for everything she has done for us, I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

Adele, you're not just a childminder to us, definitely not just a friend, you became our family back in 2018 and we all love you to bits. I can't thank / praise you enough. Keep being you!
