We feel so fortunate to have found Yvonne as our childminder. She has cared for our daughter since she was just under a year old, and now, at nearly five, she continues to enjoy wrap-around care with her. In that time, our daughter has flourished in Yvonne’s setting. Yvonne provides a nurturing, stimulating environment that follows the EY curriculum, and our daughter has developed wonderfully under her care.

She has enjoyed a wide variety of activities over the years, from writing, drawing, crafts and baking to outdoor adventures, discovering nature, and going on outings. Playgroups have also given her the chance to socialise and build important skills in sharing and playing with others. Yvonne has been consistently supportive and encouraging, especially during key milestones such as potty training, where she worked closely with us to follow routines and motivate her with sticker charts she absolutely loved.

Meals are another highlight, Yvonne provides a healthy lunch each day, and we also choose the option of a hot evening meal, which our daughter thoroughly enjoys. She loves playing in the garden and especially spending time with the rabbits.

Above all, we have complete confidence in Yvonne’s judgement and care. She is kind, reliable, and thoughtful, and we know that when our daughter is with her, she is safe, happy, and learning. We couldn’t ask for a better childminder and feel incredibly grateful for everything she does.
