Couldn’t Ask for More – Outstanding Childcare!

Our daughter has been with Penny for the past two years, and we honestly couldn’t be happier. From day one, she has absolutely loved it – knocking on Pennys door every morning brings a big smile, which says it all!
Penny provides such a warm, welcoming, and loving family environment. It’s the perfect mix of fun, learning, and care. Our daughter has learned so much during her time there – from essential early education to social skills and beautiful manners. The progress we've seen has been incredible.
Penny truly goes above and beyond in every way. Her dedication, kindness, and the genuine love she has for the children in her care is something really special. We trust her completely and are so grateful to have found her.
If we could give 10 stars, we would. We can't rave about her enough!

I would give 10 stars if I could

Penny is incredible, let's start here.

Our son started with her at 12 months old and it has been a great experience from the start. Penny has a lovely play room in her house that is stacked with toys literally up to the ceiling. My little boy couldn't believe his eyes!

Penny takes the kids to playgroups and meets with other childminders and their kids on some days which is fantastic for social interaction. She cooks the kids family meals and provides snacks.

Penny's way of interacting with kids is such a beautiful (and rare) mix of being gentle, clear, compassionate, engaged and guiding. She talks a lot to my son and she got to know all his little unique traits so quickly, like what kind of music makes him dance or what his favourite fruit is.

My favourite thing about Penny is that Jesse (and the other kids of course) are completely unique and special to her. She really sees them and enjoys being with them.

Penny's husband and daughter are also really lovely with Jesse and always engage with him when they see him and it seems that Penny's childminding is a family passion project.

I would recommend anyone to meet Penny, we're loving it!

Amazing family orientated childminder

Penny has been child-minding our son for the past year. We really could not have found a more loving childminder for our baby when he started with her at 8 Months old.

Penny is caring, lovely and extremely reliable. She has always treated our son like her own and he absolutely adores her, having a big smile every morning when we knock at her door and jumping in her arms for cuddles. For us, the biggest thing is that Penny gave our son a family life, not only child care, this made me feel so well and reassured because he has been truly happy with her.

All the children I have seen with Penny seem happy and well-behaved. Whatever the weather, Penny takes the kids out to playgroups or the park. I have seen Louis progress SO much during his time with Penny. Penny is also cooking every meal and having dinner with her own family and all the kids at the same time, which is amazing for them.

The only reason we are leaving Penny is that we have moved far away from Wandsworth and can no longer come to her every morning. It was a very difficult decision and it makes us really sad to leave as we have already pictured her taking care of our future babies for the years to come, I am forever grateful for everything she and her amazing family did for us and our son and I strongly recommend her. I know she will miss Louis and we will miss her a lot!
