Yvonne has consistently provided wonderful care for our three year old over the last 2 years. She follows the curriculum and is an excellent teacher, with countless incredible activities, games and craft projects. There isn't anything Yvonne can't make with a paper plate! :) My son counts well and has great control with a pen and scissors, among many other important skills for nursery, which I attribute to Yvonne.
She provides a lovely sleeping space for little ones so they can get the proper naps they need, as well as lovely home cooked food. The home environment is excellent. All the children are great friends and there is a real sense of community. I wish my son could continue attending afterschool throughout his primary years but unfortunately we live too far away. Should we ever be in a position to be able to use Yvonne's childminding again we will be in touch straightaway!
Yvonne always goes above and beyond and has been a pillar of support for our family in the early years of our son's life. Any child is lucky to be in her care. Thank you, Yvonne.

Both of my daughters have been with Yvonne for the last 5 years.
She has had them from babies to school and I couldn't do more to recommend her care.
She has a lovely family setting where the children have a wide range of activities and she always has some thoughtful way of making them enjoy learning.
She takes them out on various activities and I always feel completely confident with her judgement and care knowing they are safe and enjoying their day.

I couldn't be happier with the setting and care Yvonne provides. My daughter moved here from a large busy nursery and has absolutely flourished since being in Yvonne's care. She can't wait to tell me about her day when she gets home.
Yvonne takes them out regularly to experience different activities but equally, has a lovely home/play room which has everything they need to play and learn.
I highly recommend Yvonne's childminding services!

Yvonne is currently my childminder for my 21 month year old who attends three days a week.
My little boy has really enjoyed coming to Yvonne, he mastered the art of walking and I believe this has come from Yvonne's consistent care. The children are always doing lots of educational activities. She has a lovely welcoming play room , with well equipped toys appropriate to the children's ages. She also takes them out to a play group twice a week, which my little boy loves !
I could not recommend Yvonne's practice enough, coming from working in a school myself in Early years. I can see Yvonne as a excellent childcare provider. She does a lovely Job and the children are all so lovely and happy. This is what it should be about! Thank you Yvonne.

Yvonne has been our childminder for nearly 7 years and she is brilliant. She is friendly, patient and consistent. My children love being with her.
She currently provides wrap around childcare for my son at Monkspath School and looks after my 3 year old daughter during the day. Each morning, I know my daughter does a lovely activity or goes to a playgroup with Yvonne and the other children. She has lots of time to play in Yvonne’s well-resourced playroom with the other children where Yvonne supports with playing and sharing. The children also play in her garden and particularly enjoy the ride on toys and the rabbits.
Yvonne responds to the interests of the children and is constantly thinking of fun activities for them whilst moving their learning forwards through play. They learn so much without realising they are learning!
Yvonne provides a healthy lunch during the day and we pay extra for both of the children to have a hot meal in the evenings which they enjoy.
Yvonne has a quiet space where the younger children nap and was really supportive when the children were potty training, following our routine and encouraging them with sticker charts or whatever worked for them!
We highly recommend Yvonne’s childminding.
