Of course — since it’s a public review on Maryann’s childminding page, I’d make it warm, genuine and personal, but a little more concise.

Maryann is such a lovely childminder, and I honestly feel so lucky to have found her. She is absolutely amazing with my little girl.

When I was getting ready to return to work after maternity leave, I had so many worries about how my daughter would cope being away from me and spending time with someone else. She can be quite shy and gets scared around people she doesn’t know, so I was really nervous about how she would adjust. But with Maryann, she warmed up to her so quickly, which was such a huge relief for me.

My little girl absolutely loves spending time with Maryann. In fact, sometimes when we go to pick her up, she doesn’t even want to come home! That really says so much about how happy and comfortable she feels in her care.

Maryann is also brilliant at keeping me updated throughout the day and letting me know how my daughter is doing. She takes the children out, keeps them engaged and genuinely puts so much thought and care into everything she does.

You can really see Maryann’s passion and love for children. She is caring, patient and attentive, and I feel completely comfortable and reassured knowing that my daughter is in her care.

I’m genuinely so grateful that we found Maryann. She has made returning to work so much easier for me because I know my little girl is happy, loved and well looked after. I couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️
