My daughter has absolutely loved her time in Steph’s care. We came to Steph for a 7 month interim period before my daughter starts a forest school setting closer to our home. Steph provides a home from home and my daughter thrived in the nurturing and educational environment she provides. Steph is excellent at communicating with parents, is a kind, warm and genuine person and you can see how much the children adore and trust her. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough, the effort and enthusiasm she puts in to all the activities she creates for the children is unmatched. My daughter is going to really miss her.

We feel incredibly lucky to have Steph to have looked after our 5 year old boy in the past 4 months when his carer had gone on maternity leave. Over the past months, she had provided such a warm, nurturing, and caring environment, treating the children as if they were her own. Steph prepared fresh, homemade meals, which gave us great peace of mind knowing our boy was being so well looked after. She is wonderfully creative and always planned engaging activities and we know the kids are very happy at her place. She is also exceptionally organised, and her communication with us was always clear, thoughtful, and reassuring. I always felt fully informed and confident that our boy was in the best hands.
Most importantly, Steph is a genuinely kind and lovely person, and it really shows in the way she cares for the children. I would wholeheartedly recommend Stephanie to any family looking for a dedicated, caring, and reliable childminder.

I was very fortunate to find Steph at short notice. Steph has welcomed my son who is 6 like her own and he has settled in so quickly. He adores Charlotte and Sophia like little sisters. My son has come out of his shell since being with Steph as his last childminder had quite a lot of children and he never had a chance to be himself.one very happy boy and parents.

Steph looks after our two children (aged 2 & 4), 4 days a week and we say every day how lucky we are to have found her. Her whole family have welcomed us in and offer a level of care like no other. Our children settled straight in with Steph and adore being with her and her two lovely children each day. Steph caters for both age groups, tailoring activities to suit them. She also cooks home cooked meals and both are so well fed! We highly recommend her!
