Having been with Lindsey for over 6 years now I can't thank Lindsey enough for all the support she has given me and my two children. My daughter loves going to Lindsey's and will truly miss her when she leaves primary. If I ever need earlier child care Lindsey has no issues and this has helped me as Lindsey is 100% reliable. Her home is always welcoming, clean and warm. I can not thank Lindsey enough for everything she has done over the past 6 years .

My youngest daughter has been goin to Lyndsey for 2 years now and I couldn't ask for a better childminder. Lyndsey is a lovely friendly and caring lady who is just fab with children. She regularly takes the children to playgroups and parks ensuring a variety of environments. She is an important part of the children's learning and development providing a progress journal including pictures and your child learning and taking part in activities. My daughter absolutely adores Lyndsey and gets so excited on the days she attends her house, she calls her "my Lyndsey".
