Clare

A home from home

Our children love to be at Clare’s and always ask when they’re going round.
Clare has cared for our kids for a few years now and they have both grown to be confident, inquisitive, happy and sociable children and have made many friends over time.
Clare has not only helped them but has also helped us by giving advice at critical times of their development.
Clare is one in a million. We’re so grateful to her and everything she does for us and the kids.

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful review, it truly means a lot.

It has been an absolute pleasure caring for your children over the years and watching them grow into such confident, curious, and sociable individuals. Seeing them build friendships and develop their own personalities is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do.

I’m also really glad I’ve been able to support you as a family along the way, working together during those important stages makes such a difference.

Thank you again for your trust and support. I feel very lucky to be part of your children’s journey.

We’re so lucky

Both of my children have attended Chapel house since they were 9 months old. They thoroughly enjoy spending time with Clare, so much so that on weekends they regularly ask if they can go to Clare’s house. Clare is like another member of our family and our children love her so much.

The communication with parents is brilliant and we know exactly what our children have been up to each day.
Our youngest has some health needs and Clare is great at recognising when these issues are about to arise and alerts us quickly to this. We trust her completely with them.

We’re so lucky to have found Clare to nurture and support our children in their early development and can’t thank her enough for this.

Thank you so much for your lovely review, it really means a lot to me. I feel incredibly lucky to spend time with your children and to be part of their lives. It makes me so happy to hear how much they enjoy coming and that they feel so at home here, that's always my aim.
I'm also really glad that the communication has helped you feel reassured, especially when it comes to your youngest's needs. Supporting both your children and giving you peace of mind is so important to me.
Thank you again for your kind words, it truly means everything.

A Nurturing Setting That Feels Like Family

Chapel House Childcare has been fantastic for our family. Both of our children have attended for several years, and the care has always been warm, reliable, and genuinely home‑from‑home. Clare made us feel at ease from the very first visit, and both children settled quickly.

Communication is excellent, with holiday dates shared early and any changes explained clearly. The transition to Clare and Lisa working together (a few years ago) was seamless, and my children have built lovely bonds with them both. They enjoy every session and always comes home happy. Infact our 6 year old asks me if she can go to Clare's in the holidays as she has so much fun!

We highly recommend Clare for flexible, caring, and trustworthy wrap‑around care.
