The perfect childminder

Shell is everything you would want in a childminder. I was so apprehensive about leaving my eldest son when it was time to go back to work but Shell made it so easy on us both. I knew he was being looked after and he settled in so quickly and loves going to Shell’s. We now have 2 boys and they are both so excited on ‘Shell days’ that they rush to get ready to leave the house, I can’t keep up. Shell puts so much effort into her job. They go out nearly every day to amazing places and she makes sure she provides them with fun experiences. She’s really helped them develop their life skills and pre school education and whenever we drop off and pick up the whole group seem really contented and playing together happily. Would highly recommend! We feel so lucky to have found her.

Couldn't ask for a better childminder

Both my children have been with Michelle so we have used her as a childminder continuously for 4 years. I was a very nervous parent to begin with & Michelle was fantastic not only to my children but for me too. My eldest is now at school & thrives with social interaction & speech all thanks to Michelle. My youngest is now with Michelle & she loves going so much. There are no tears just excitement at being with her & the other children. Seeing all the fun they have outside & at home makes me feel so happy & I know she's having the best time. Would 100% recommend Michelle as a childminder to anybody. We all love her.

The best!

My son has been going to Michelle since he was 9 months old. He doesn’t even say bye to me, he can’t get out of the car quick enough, he just loves it at Michelle’s.
Every day he is taken out somewhere to do activities. He has so much fun. He always wants to stay for tea time so we sometimes let him join in on the fun! When it comes to pick up time he doesn’t want to leave.
I’ve always said it to Michelle but I don’t know how you do it! You’re so calm & organised even when you’ve got maximum attendance. Thank you Michelle. I can’t wait for my daughter to start with you & grow up with you from next year. Hayley x

Fantastic childminder

I have been taking my daughter to Michelle for nearly a month now and she is absolutely loving it.

Michelle is a gentle person, speaks calmly to my daughter, understands her needs and listens.

She takes the children to play groups, outings and gives them healthy meals for tea time.

She’s a lovely person, brilliant with my daughter and I know this because every week when I say, we’re off to see Michelle! She has a huge grin on her face and gets so excited.

I would recommend Michelle if you need a childminder, I’m so glad I made the right choice.
