Wonderful Childminder!

My daughter was with Corinne for 9 months ending in Spring 2020, only due to the fact she started preschool. From my first communication with Corinne, she was professional, friendly, empathetic and supportive. My nearly 2 year old daughter (at the time) had never been left with anyone outside of the family, yet after two playdates with me there (great settling in process as suggested by Corrine), she went straight in with barely a backwards glance to me! I believe Corrine's caring, calm and enthusiastic manner paid a large part in this. From then on my daughter really looked forward to her one (and then two days) with Corrine and her family, enjoying playing with all the toys inside and out and with Corrine's daughters after school, as well as the other children. They were always out and about at toddler groups and things, but which Corrine structured around the kids' eating and nap times. Corrine always ensured she created a home from home and tweaked routines when they naturally changed at home, for example. Corinne also always updated the app we had with thorough information and photos of the day's activities and discussed the day and anything at pick up time so we always felt that we had a real understanding of what our daughter had been doing, which was important to us. Corrine also supported us through our daughter's potty training and therefore this continued well even at her own home.

All in all, I would thoroughly recommend Corrine to anyone! It was sad for us all when our daughter's time with her naturally came to end - she is an excellent childminder!
