Outstanding

My little boy has just completed his second week with Nat. This was our third new childcare setting in a year due to covid and changes of circumstances for previous setting.
My little boy waltzed in on his first day and was right at home. I don’t think he would even stop to give us a cuddle goodbye now if he could open the front door himself.
The activities done on a daily basis are amazing: from painting, drawing, stamps, story time, singing songs, Lego, dolly’s, trains, baking, den building and exploring nearby outdoors including the snow.
My little boy loves it. He happily tells us he is going to ‘Nat’ and loves her daughter Izzy. They whole family really get involved which is the primary reason I wanted a childminder not a nursery setting.

If I could give more than 5 stars Nat would have them.

Excellent service

I’m a first time mum to a beautiful little boy but I also work full time. Jen has made juggling these demands so easy. My little boy did a range of settling in days (more to put my mind at rest than his) when he was 6 months old. I drop him off four mornings a week and he lights up when he sees Jenny. Her four children are evidence of her excellent skills and my little boy loves half terms and holidays so he can stay with the older children too. The childcare arrangements suit is perfectly and jen has been willing to work with us to get the balance right and understands if due to my job, I am 5 minutes late. The range of activities is amazing and my little boy is blossoming because of it. I love the setting in a home as that was very important to me as he is so young. I truely feel that they are part of our extended family and hope to continue a friendship between the children long after my children leave the setting.
