Being a first time mum, I was a little nervous about my son remaining with a childminder. Since I had little choice I had to go to work I found a childminder. Since Mrs Frain has been taking care of my son from when he was 11/12 months old, late 2013. He's nearly 3 years old now. I have not had any problems with her and her staff.

I know when I leave him in her care my mind is always at peace. She's flexible since my work involves starting earlier than 8 am. She's agreed to have him before 8 am which is a relief for me.

My son enjoys playing with other young children. He's always talking about cars and they have noticed that he's into cars so they encourage him to play with cars and also to share with his friends.

She also keeps records of the activities and will share his progress with me. I have noticed my son is able to count up to 30 and he knows the alphabetical order from A to Z. He can also spell him name.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to any one looking for a childminder
