Karen has nurtured and cared for our two children all through their pre school years up until starting school (only reason she doesn’t still look after them is because ours go to a different school from London Mead where she does school pick up and drop offs - it was hard to leave).

This lady is a beautiful soul and is well sought after locally and due to glowing recommendations via word of mouth, she has had little need for any advertising over the years - which says it all!

Being busy parents and carrying a fair dose of mummy guilt due to having to work full time, I found it especially easy to leave my two most precious bubbas with her as I knew they would be super happy, super safe & super cared for.

Not only is Karen a beautiful childminder but she is on the ball with all the necessary paperwork and formal necessities and is regularly updating her knowledge on the ever changing policies and recommendations via online courses.

Both our children regularly talk fondly of Karen and they both have their special leaving gifts on show in their bedrooms.

I would not hesitate to recommend Karen to any local parents with children of any age, she’s wonderful.
