My eldest girl started with Lorraine for afterschool pick-ups in 2023. New to the area we were looking for a reliable, flexible and nurturing Childminder who could provide a home away from home. Lorraine has provided just that and was our first choice when we welcomed our little boy in 2023. He began full-time with Lorraine in 2024. He loves going and happily waves me goodbye at the door. He has thrived in the small setting, whilst also enjoying socialising at the playgroups they attend. He has now begun preschool and teachers have commented on how well prepared he was for the setting. Credit to Lorraine for getting him ready for more independence and soon, reception.
My daughter, now in year 2, still enjoys Lorraine’s meals over mine :)
Highly recommend her and very grateful we found her so quickly after our move to the area.
