Emma childminds our 9 month old baby for us 1 day a week. She also sometimes looks after our 11 year old during school holidays and has babysat for us in the evenings.
She is very reliable, confident and friendly, and our children love spending time with her and her son.
She has really helped us settle our baby into a routine with lots of tips and perserverance. She has also been firm when required with our older son! :)
I would very much recommend Emma as a babysitter as she is great with the children and also a lovely person to deal with.
Sandra looks after our 9 month old son, Charlie, 4 days a week. She has a very welcoming home and a lovely family.
Charlie has settled in very quickly with Sandra - after 1 week he started smiling when we got to her front door and now holds his arms out for her straight away.
She has a wonderful range of toys for the children to play with and also takes them out to lots of parks etc.
I would recommend Sandra very much as she has been so good with our son and a lovely person to deal with.
Wilcox Family, Yateley.

I have been looking after my grandson for 2 weeks, whilst his mum is recovering from an operation. This has included taking Charlie to and from his childcare with Sandra.
I was immediately struck by the warm welcome I was given and so pleased to see how happy Charlie was to be there. He entered the house totally at ease, engaged with the amazing selection of toys and happily waved goodbye. I was also delighted that she talked about hospitals and doctors in preparation for his mum's operation and he enjoyed playing with the doctor's set.
Sandra has kept in contact regularly during the day, giving brief updates which made me feel part of his day.
Charlie's social skills are pleasing and well developed and he plays well with the other children. He is learning a lot, with an impressive vocabulary and motor skills. I look forward to seeing what he will be able to do when I next see him.
Thank you Sandra.

Amber has been childminding my daughter (4 years old) since August 2017.
I have been very happy with the care that Amber has provided for my daughter and also the amazing progress she has made whilst in her care. Amber's home is very welcoming and my daughter felt comfortable straight away.
Amber plans so many fun and educational activities. She takes them to local playgroups, trips to the park, walks and even to animal handling sessions and other events that are held locally. She even creates fun games for the children to play and they don't even realise they are learning!
I provide my daughter's food each day however, Amber does provide a healthy snack also and encourages my daughter to try different foods.
I was having some trouble potty training my daughter when she first started with Amber and within a couple of days Amber had got her using the potty with barely any accidents at all!
She has been very flexible and has even been taking my daughter to and from preschool as I was unable to do so, and even been able to babysit into the evening if I was stuck at work.
I would definitely recommend Amber as a great childminder!
