Reference from a current parent:
Just thought to share my review about an amazing childminder April Marle. April goes above and beyond to plan age-appropriate activities, starting with messy and outdoor play and finishing with quiet play and crafts. From the first day, April created warm and welcoming environment, making it like a second home for my kid. We know April for half of the year but it feels like more than that. If you are looking for someone kind, reliable, and truly passionate about working with children, April is your first choice ???

April has had my daughter since she was 6 months old so 4 and a half years now, as a new mum I was extremely nervous about leaving her with someone new but my daughter took to April straight away and as time has gone on it has been as easy leaving her with April as it would be leaving her with family. April goes over and above, is extremely flexible and helpful and has a fantastic manner with children. I could not ask for better and would highly recommend her to anyone. Over the years April has taken my daughter on fantastic days out, taught her how to socially interact with other children positively and has supported my husband and I in all of our parenting trials, from potty training to behavioural issues which has really helped with continuity. A genuinely lovely woman who is fantastic with children.

April is a lovely person who will do anything she can to help your child develop more skills while in her care, my son loves her dog and always wants to see her when my sons not due on that day. My son struggled with mingling with other children and being at her house has improved his confidence we will miss you when we leave. Thank you for everything.
