I honestly couldn’t ask for a better childminder for my son. She has been looking after him since he was a baby, and it’s been so special watching her help him grow into the little man he is today, full of personality and character.
She is absolutely brilliant at what she does, so creative and reliable, and always encourages outdoor play, exploring nature and learning new things. She makes sure the children have lots of exciting experiences, with plenty of outings to places like the dinosaur park, local parks, libraries and different events. There is always something new for them to explore, learn about and enjoy!
Receiving daily photos is such a lovely bonus, too. It means I get to see what my son has been up to during the day, see his little adventures and share in those special moments even when I’m at work.
As a mum, leaving your baby at such a young age to return to work can be really difficult, but she gave me the confidence and reassurance I needed to do that. Knowing my son was in such good hands made all the difference. She is always there to offer advice and support whenever I need it, and I genuinely value that.
To me, she is so much more than just my son’s childminder. I consider her a friend, and I’m so grateful to have her in both our lives. It takes a special person to care for your child, help them develop and watch them grow, and she really is one of those people.
We will genuinely miss her so much! ❤️ She has been such a special part of my son’s life and our journey as a family, and it’s hard to put into words how grateful I am for everything she has done for us.
I would recommend her a thousand times over to any parent looking for someone caring, trustworthy, creative and reliable to look after their little one. Thank you for everything you do for my son, for all the wonderful experiences you give him, and for the support and reassurance you’ve given me along the way.
We are so lucky to have had you as part of our lives. Thank you for helping my little boy grow, learn and make so many lovely memories. You will always hold a special place in our hearts, and we will miss you dearly!

Your child will be very lucky if they get a space with Emma, from day one my little boy absolutely loved being with Emma at her home, she takes the children to lovely places and really treats them like her own. She teaches them lots of things, and really gives them her undivided attention. We couldn’t of asked anymore from a childminder and absolutely gutted Emma moved away from us
