The best childminder

Mariella has been absolutely amazing with my little girl. I visited lots of childminders and nurseries and Mariella stood out immediately. I had to go back to work when my daughter was 9 months old and I was so worried about leaving her. I felt comfortable leaving her with Mariella straight away. She has years of childcare experience and is warm and kind and obviously genuinely loves children. She has ofsted outstanding which is hard to find in the area. Mariella’s home is beautiful and spacious with a lovely garden. She takes the children on so many outings and to lots of local activities and provides nutritious home cooked meals. Mariella doesn’t do school pick ups and drops offs, which was a massive plus for me and means she’s totally focussed on the little ones. Her setting is calm and not overwhelming and overstimulating as nurseries can be. The most important thing is that my daughter also loves Mariella, she’s excited when we approach her house!
