Our son Theo has been going to Lisa since June and I really couldn't ask for anyone better to look after him. Her home is so welcoming and completely geared up for her children - there's a separate playroom with every activity I could think of, along with a brilliant outdoor space and garden activities.
Lisa has changed Theo from a fussy eater to a good eater; the meals are homemade and healthy, as are the snacks Lisa provides.
Lisa takes the children to age appropriate groups, the park, museums and farms. She took Theo pumpkin picking at Halloween and to see the grotto at Christmas.
Lisa does lots of activities with the children, and our house is full of lovely homemade arts and crafts that get sent home. She encourages the children's reading, writing and maths skills in a fun way.
I wanted a childminder who is affectionate with my son, and would give him a cuddle if he needed one. Lisa treats Theo like her own, as she does with the other children, and Theo thinks the world of her.
Theo has been made to feel like a family member and we have been given the peace of mind that when we are at work he is safe, happy and loved. We really couldn't ask for anyone better to look after Theo, and couldn't recommend Lisa enough.
