Inspiring Childminder in Blackheath

We are so lucky to have found Estelle. We have sent two of our children to Estelle’s welcoming home and both run to the door every morning without looking back! Estelle is such a warm and energetic personality. Every day is well planned and exciting, be-it heading on the train into London Bridge to listen to the piano, heading to the local library or butchers, or just playing with toys and instruments in French. We are kept well informed of her plans throughout the day. We also have regular development meetings to understand how our children are progressing. She treats each child as an individual and tailors her approach for them to thrive. The group dynamics between the children is also lovely to see.

Her home is cosy and safe, food is always home cooked, tasty and varied. She gets the children to join in baking or food preparation safely with child safe equipment. Estelle is also extremely reliable. I can’t remember a day when she has had to close unexpectedly and holidays are shared well in advance.

Estelle is an exceptional childminder and I would recommend her to anyone. She is also super close to Blackheath station which is a bonus for anyone who gets the train to work.
