Monica is a brilliant childminder and has had a great impact on our daughter. She has been looking after our 1 year old for 6 months and is everything one could hope for. She is nurturing, fun, active and very engaged. Their daily routine features lots of educational and fun activities inside and outside, and is topped off with good healthy food and snacks. I can't recommend Monica highly enough, and our daughter loves being with her too.

We’re so grateful to Monica for all the care and attention she’s given to our son who started with her at 10 months and is now 4. Her experience, skill and consistency really shows. We’d highly recommend her.

Monica is very caring and loving with the twins. They both love her and will always give her cuddles when they see her or saying good bye. She is very attentive and observant with them and will often notice their development before even we have. She has helped with their development and introduced different toys and developmental activities as they grow. She is also firm, fair and calm with them when they are mis-behaving. Her home is immaculate and a really welcome environment for the kids. We will be sad to leave her.
