Mel started minding my 4 year old son 4 months ago since I decided to remove him from a private nursery. He quickly settled into Mel’s care despite being shy and reserved.

Mel took the time to source toys that specifically appeal to his age, gender and personal preferences so that he is happy in her care. She plans activities around his personal likes and takes all the children on indoor and outdoor trips/activities regularly. My son always wants to stay longer at Mel's house as he has so much fun there, which says it all!

I am so pleased with Mel that she has recently looked after my 13 month old daughter as well. Mel is very flexible and accomodating too as she caters for all my frequently changing requirements.

From the designated toy room/conservatory to the garden, Mel's house has it all and I'm so glad she is our childminder.
