Below are the reviews that Mary has written.

Ben has been looking after our son, who is now 20 months old, since September 2025 full time, and we honestly couldn’t be happier with the care he has provided.

From the very beginning, Ben put us completely at ease. Leaving your child with someone else at such a young age can feel daunting, but Ben’s calm, thoughtful and professional approach reassured us very quickly. Our son settled in almost immediately and has always been genuinely happy and excited to go.

Ben is fantastic at communicating with parents. He regularly keeps us updated on what our son has been doing, what books he’s enjoying, what he’s learning and how his day has gone, often with photos as well. He really takes the time to understand each child as an individual — their interests, favourite foods, words they’re learning and little details about home life — which helps the children feel comfortable, secure and valued.

We have seen a real improvement in our son’s confidence, communication and social development, and we genuinely feel Ben has played a big part in this. He offers a wide range of engaging activities, both at home and on regular outings which my son really enjoys.

We highly highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for childminders.
