Lucy V's Reviews

Parent

Below are the reviews that Lucy V has written.

Leanne has been childminding our son Bailey since July 2017 (approx. 8mnths). She looks after him for 30 hours each week. Unfortunately we are moving away from the area, otherwise we would of loved to keep Bailey in Leanne's capable hands!

We have been extremely happy with the care Bailey has received, and the great progress he has made whilst in Leanne’s care. Leanne’s home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and Bailey has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care (including her three children).

She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise. Bailey has recently enjoyed reading and singing as well as outings to the park, trips to feed the ducks and walks in the woods. Previously they have enjoyed trips to the beach and regularly visit a nearby farm-Barleylands. In December we received a Christmas decoration for the tree with Baileys hand print which was lovely.

Although we provide Bailey’s lunch each day I know that Leanne will provide healthy snacks such as fruit and rice cakes throughout the day, and if he is there for dinner there is always something healthy for him to eat.

Leanne completes a diary detailing what Bailey has done each day. From this we have a complete picture of his whole day including what he has eaten, how long he has slept, when his been changed and all his activities. This helps us to feel involved with his care and that we can talk to him about his day. We also receive pictures when they have been on outings, as well as any development milestones such as using a slide the correct way. Leanne also keeps these in a folder for us to look at every now and then to see what they’ve been up to.

Due to both our work patterns, Leanne has been fantastic with regards to flexibility of working hours. There have been some occasions where we have both been working during the evening, and Leanne has been able to look after Bailey past her normal working hours.

All in all we are thoroughly happy with the level of care Bailey receives and we’re certain that being in such a positive and happy environment is helping him develop into a confident and self-assured little boy.

We would absolutely recommend Leanne as a great and reliable childminder.
