Shauna is fabulous with my baby girl and has put me at ease being her childminder she does so much with them all different days out which means my baby can experience so much more then a nursery can offer her! My baby is so settled with Shauna she even gets excited when dropping her off at the door and everything feels like home from home the communication Is brilliant and nothing is ever to much effort Shauna goes above and beyond for my baby and reassures me all the time as I am quite and anxious parent! My baby has learnt so much already being with Shauna and I know she will continue to thrive being in Shauna’s care! My baby is well nourished and all protocols are followed with everything she does. The best decision I’ve ever made putting my baby with Shauna if only she was a childminder when my other children where little I would have saved a lot of anxiety and bad experiences with nurseries for my other children. 10/10 stars for being the best childminder

After taking my daughter out of nursery because of a bad experience, one of my clients recommended Shauna to me. She started 2 days a week with Shauna and honestly I’ve seen the biggest growth in my daughter since she started. She is happy, she has fun, she comes home and is full of beans, her development has been incredible since starting and I would never trust my daughter in anyone else’s care than Shauna’s. She treats the children like they are her own and it’s like a second home for my daughter and that’s all I want is her to feel comfortable and happy and Shauna does that. The care she provides is exceptional and I couldn’t fault her for anything. Highly highly recommend Shauna to be your childminder and I will forever recommend her to anyone. She loves my daughter and all of the kids she cares for and that’s all we want as parents, knowing our children are in safe hands and she does that day in and day out. I’m grateful for her and she really is superwoman. Thankyou xx

My daughter had previously attended a nursery and as she grew older I hated the idea of her early years being confined to a typical nursery routine.
With Shauna she is able to learn while being in a home from home environment as well as outdoors. My daughter comes home excited to tell me where she has been today, such as the library, garden centres, local parks, and especially seeing reindeers at Christmas time.
Shauna gives my daughter a hands on experience and cares for her fantastically. My daughter is often asking to go to Shauna’s at the weekend. So knowing she is happy and content in this environment makes me know we made the right choice to switch from a nursery to childminding.
Shauna gives frequent updates of meals, toileting, sleeps and picture updates of what my daughter has been up to during the day and gives great advice on toileting and has helped my daughter have the confidence to sit on a big girl toilet.

Thankyou Jody. This is such a lovely review… I’m so greatful x
As a first time Parent, Shauna has allowed me to feel comfortable knowing my baby is in safe and loving hands. I am updated everyday in regards to my Sons day and I constantly feel reassured that he’s happy! I can’t thank Shauna and the family enough for everything they do/continuously do for my Son, I really am thankful for everything. We feel welcome from the second we drop off/pick up. Fantastic days out are planned to ensure the children have the very best opportunities and I am more than happy with the level of care my little boy receives.
