Caring, Dilligent and Reliable

Gemma is the most wonderful childminder; we feel so lucky to have been able to work with her. Our middle daughter joined her in the midst of the pandemic and absolutely thrived. She has now moved on to preschool and our youngest has been with Gemma since she was 5 months old.

Gemma plans lots of structured activities for her 'crew' to do and is acutely aware of each child's needs and where their next developmental achievement is likely to be - after safety and fun, this was really important to us. Gemma does lots of days out to woodlands and zoos and farms and creates a range of memorable experiences for her mindees - they form close relationships with each other and with Gem and her welcoming family.

Gemma runs her setting very professionally with smart invoices emailed on the same date each month and excellent levels of daily communication including a WhatsApp group for each child parents which she updates with photos and news throughout the day. Gemma has clear policies relating to health, absences, COVID and every aspect of childminding and both follows and refers to these.

If Gemma has space for your child, I would snap it up. Every time she has a space, she fills in immediately due to word of mouth. Children going to this childminder are safe, loved, encouraged and they thrive.
