The Best Childminder you could ask for!

We honestly cannot recommend this childminder and her amazing team highly enough. Our son first started attending when he was just 7 months old, and from the very beginning we knew we had found somewhere truly special. Leaving your baby for the first time is such a huge milestone as a parent, and naturally comes with so many worries, but the care, kindness and reassurance we received made the transition so much easier. We very quickly realised that he was not only safe and incredibly well cared for, but genuinely loved.
Over the time he attended, we watched him grow and flourish in such a happy, nurturing and stimulating environment. The activities they provide are absolutely fantastic and there is always something new and exciting for the children to explore. From creative activities and messy play to learning opportunities, outdoor adventures and simply having fun together, so much thought goes into making every day enjoyable and meaningful for the children. They are given the opportunity to learn, develop their independence and build confidence, all while being surrounded by people who genuinely care about them.

The environment itself is wonderful. It is warm, welcoming, homely and full of opportunities for the children to learn through play. You can tell how much effort, passion and thought goes into creating a setting where children feel comfortable being themselves. Most importantly, our boys have always been so happy there, and that speaks volumes.

Our youngest also attended for a shorter period, and although his time there was not as long because we moved towns, he was made to feel just as welcome, cared for and loved. It was lovely to see that same level of care and attention given to both of our children.

What makes this team particularly special to us, though, goes far beyond childcare. They have supported us personally through so many things over the years. We do not have family support around us, and there have been countless moments when having someone we could turn to, talk to, or simply rely on has meant more than we could ever put into words. They have gone above and beyond in ways that they never had to, and their support has made such a difference to our family.

They have genuinely become our family. That is the only way we can describe it.

Our children absolutely adore them, and we know that the relationships they have built with the team will stay with them for years to come. It is incredibly reassuring as a parent to know that your children have people in their lives who know them, understand them, celebrate their little personalities and genuinely want the very best for them.

Moving towns meant that both of our boys have now moved on from the setting, and that has honestly been one of the hardest parts of moving. We feel incredibly emotional knowing that they will no longer be there every day, because this place has been such a huge and special part of our family’s life. We will always be grateful for everything they have done for our boys and for us.

Thank you to the entire team for every cuddle, every activity, every reassuring conversation, every milestone celebrated, every bit of encouragement and every time you have gone that extra mile for our family. Thank you for loving our boys, believing in them and helping them become the happy, confident little people they are.

We will miss you all more than you know. You have been so much more than childcare to us - you have been a huge part of our village, our support system and our family. We could not recommend you highly enough, and any family lucky enough to have their children cared for here should know just how special they are. ❤️

Absolutely Fantastic!!

We are so blessed to have found you! When trying to find a childminder for our little boy we were so so nervous and apprehensive to leave our little man with someone other than us! But Marta and her wonderful team have really made this transition so easy and effortless. Our son (8 months) comes home every day so happy and content! We couldn’t ever put into words how grateful and thankful we are! From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to everyone that works here, we wouldn’t change a thing!!
