⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Leanne is an outstanding childminder and I couldn’t be happier with the care my son receives. My son is 18 months old and was born 4 months premature with some complications, so choosing the right childcare was extremely important to us. Leanne has exceeded all expectations.

Having been a primary teacher and now a college tutor myself, I strongly believe in young children learning the foundations of words, sounds, numbers, and letters while learning through play. I support this at home through phonics work, and Leanne keeps in close communication so she can mirror the same songs, games, and learning activities, providing excellent consistency.

Leanne follows the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework which was important for me whilst creating a safe, secure, and nurturing environment where children can learn. My son is reaching all of his milestones regardless of his hard start in life, and the support he receives has been fantastic.

Leanne regularly sends photos and videos, my son is always happy at drop-off and pick-up, and she is flexible and accommodating with working patterns and schedules. She ensures he is well cared for with food, snacks, comfort, and sleep, and regularly takes him out to places such as soft play centres.

I would highly recommend Leanne to anyone looking for a caring, knowledgeable, and trustworthy childminder.
