Polly's Reviews

Couldn’t be happier!

We honestly couldn’t be happier with the care our son receives. He absolutely loves going to Polly and it gives us such peace of mind knowing how happy and settled he is there. He started with her when he was just 11 months old, from the very beginning she has been so hands-on, loving and attentive to his individual needs. She truly goes above and beyond for him and always makes us feel that he is cared for as if he were her own.

We really appreciate how well she keeps us updated, both through the app and with messages throughout the day whenever needed. She knows all his favourite foods and always makes sure he is well fed while still offering him a balanced diet.

It’s also amazing to see just how much he learns while he’s there. He comes home having learned new things, with the cutest cards, drawings and little creations to proudly show us, which we absolutely love. Seeing how much his confidence and personality have grown since starting with her means so much to us.

The setting is always clean, welcoming and well looked after. We feel incredibly lucky to have someone so caring, dedicated and attentive looking after our little boy and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to any parent looking for someone they can truly trust.

Childminder review.

I honestly couldn’t be happier with Polly and the care she provides. My son previously attended another childminder setting and, unfortunately, he wasn’t always as settled. Since starting with Polly, we have noticed such a lovely and positive change in him. He is genuinely happy, looks forward to going in, and comes home happy and content. As a parent, seeing that difference means absolutely everything.

As a primary school teacher myself, I feel I can naturally recognise when someone genuinely has children’s best interests at heart, and this is something that really stands out with Polly. You can tell she has a wealth of previous nursery experience, and she has brought all of that knowledge and experience into her own setting. It really shows in the activities she plans, the experiences she provides and the way she creates such a warm, stimulating and nurturing environment for the children.

One of the things I particularly love about Polly’s setting is how much she offers the children. There are so many opportunities to learn, explore, create and have fun, things you might typically see with a nursery setting, but all within her own home. It feels like she has created the best of both worlds.

Most importantly, my son is happy. The change in him since starting with Polly has been so lovely to see, and I feel completely reassured knowing he is somewhere he enjoys being and while also receiving such personal and attentive care.

Polly genuinely goes above and beyond, and it is clear how passionate she is about what she does. I feel very lucky to have found her and would highly recommend her to any parent looking for a caring, professional and dedicated childminder.

My two year olds review

My little one has been with Polly since september. She is amazing with him and works around his routine. His communication and confidence has had significant improvements since his been attending and she is so flexible to his needs. He also had medical needs and I feel confident and reassured when he is with Polly as she is able to manage all his medical needs. She also uses a holistic approach and works with children as individuals. She is very professional and her setting has a wide range of toys both indoor and outdoor.

The best childminder!

Polly is such an amazing childminder! My child has come on leaps and bounds at her setting. He is always coming home and saying new words, bringing home amazing artwork and food/snacks he has made whilst there.
Polly and her husband do fun activities with my child including visiting local attractions such as the farm and pumpkin patch which was a first for my child.
Communication is 10/10. She uses an app and sends us regular updates throughout the day regarding food, personal care and all activities my child does so I am never worried about what he is doing or if he has eaten. She also provides lots of fresh fruits and snacks, which my child loves.
You can tell she has years of experience and my child is being given so much love and attention. I cannot recommend her enough :)
