About Me
Hi! I'm a working Mum to a bright and curious nearly-3-year-old who keeps us on our toes in the best way. We live with Dad and a feisty little kitten who has quickly become my son’s best furry friend — their bond is something truly special.
Finding the right childcare has been more challenging than I expected, and we've had a couple of difficult experiences along the way. That’s why I’m now looking for someone who’s not just experienced, but genuinely kind, patient, and supportive — someone who will treat my little one with the same care and warmth we do at home.
We’re an outdoorsy bunch who love exploring nature and going on little adventures. My son is absolutely dinosaur obsessed, so you’ll often find us in the woods on a dino hunt, roaring through the trees.
We’re hoping to find a childminder who values play, imagination, and gentle guidance — someone who can help nurture our son’s curiosity and confidence while giving us peace of mind that he’s in safe, loving hands.

We were lucky enough to have Claire care for our 2-year-old while our regular childminder was on maternity leave, and I can honestly say she was an absolute gem.
From the very beginning, my little one felt safe, happy, and completely at ease in her care. He quickly bonded not just with her, but with her lovely family too — he would come home full of stories, smiles, and excitement about his day. It was clear he was thriving in her nurturing and playful environment, and as a parent, that kind of peace of mind is priceless.
Leaving was genuinely hard for us. We were sad to say goodbye and often found ourselves wishing we could have stayed longer. The warmth, structure, and joy she brought to our son’s days made a lasting impression on all of us.
Even after our time with her ended, she continued to be incredibly supportive — especially when our original childminder let us down. She went out of her way to help us, showing just how much she cares about the families she works with.
We would highly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a kind, reliable, and truly special childminder. She gave our son a safe and loving space to grow, and we’ll always be grateful for the time we spent with her.
