Gilly’s is Jessica’s home away from home. She is generally quite clingy but she will run to the door with a smile on her face, ready for an enjoyable day with Gilly and her friends. Gilly is one in a million because she truly cares about the children and always goes the extra mile to ensure that her children are all engaged, safe, nurtured and, most of all, having fun! Thank you for all you do, Gilly.

Our daughter loves Gillian and is always so happy when she has been there for the day. Gillian always has lots of fun activities for the children and our daughter comes home with pictures and cards on special occasions which is lovely. Gillian follows our home plan for naps and potty training which has made this much smoother for us. We receive updates at the end of each day about how the day has gone and how our daughter has eaten and slept which is great. We also love to see the themes for the week around numbers and shapes.

Thank you so much for the lovely review it means a lot to me xx

Couldn’t have chose a better child minder for my daughter, Gilly goes above and beyond to meet my daughters needs. My daughter loves going to Gilly and as a parent that is the most reassuring thing, she not only has fun but she learns, she feels happy and heard! Thankyou so much for everything you do, it does not go unnoticed, you are incredible!

Thank you so much for the lovely review means a lot to me .

At first, I was unsure about what type of childcare I wanted to pursue for my child. Then Gilly messaged me and invited me to do a tour of her setting and get to know her. From the start, Gilly made me feel comfortable and answered any questions I had. As someone from an ethnic background, Gilly is very adaptable to making sure my child knows their culture and celebrates any holidays that we would at home. She showed me all the sensory toys available and the curriculum that all the children will be learning. Shes skilled in sign language and does exercise with the children too which made me really happy to hear as she goes above and beyond for the children she cares for. I’m really grateful I found Gilly and I’m looking forward to my child to be cared by her. I feel comfortable knowing my child will be cared for in a home like setting with someone who genuinely cares about children, their development and their well being. Thank you Gilly.

Thank you so much so looking forward to caring for your son .

My little one really enjoys attending Gilly's Gigglepots. He settled very well into the setting and had some settling in sessions to support this. Gilly is a happy and fun soul and is so enthusiastic, she was born to care for children. She has such a kind and caring personality. My child adores her and has made some lovely friendships. Gilly also sends lots of photos throughout the day which is very reassuring. Thanks Gilly for everything you do x

Thank u so much this really means a lot to me x

I found Gilly after a long search. From the moment I met her, she made me feel welcome, and my son immediately took to her. Gilly keeps me regularly updated throughout the day with photos and messages, which is very reassuring, and my son has settled in very quickly. Gilly is bubbly, friendly and full of enthusiasm for children, and it shows! She adds lots of lovely little personalised touches, such as animal pictures for each child's peg, and little placemats, and it really feels like a home from home.
I always feel I can ask her questions and nothing is too much trouble. When I first met Gilly made me a cup of tea and invited me into the playroom so my son and I could meet the other children. It really made such a difference as a first-time mum entrusting my child to someone else. I could see where he would be playing and the friends he would be making, and I felt I could get to know Gilly and her family.
Gilly has a paper folder filled with lovely reviews and organises her childcare services really well. She focuses on each child's development, choosing different learning activities each week and taking the kids out and about.
I would highly recommend Gilly- her kindness and passion for her job is evident.
Thank you Gilly!
Jess
