Our little boy has been going to Gwen for the last year and has had a fantastic experience. We love the daily updates and photos to see what he has been up-to. Gwen goes above and beyond with the kids in her care, she always has fun activities planned and adventures outdoors when the weather is decent. He loves taking part in the crafts and baking activities. Gwen puts so much time and effort into everything, and the children come home with lots of crafts and goodies they have made together during seasonal activities and special holidays. Her communication is excellent, and she gives plenty of notice of holidays/ any requirements. Our eldest daughter particularly enjoyed her time over the summer holidays. She visited lots of parks and had some lovely days out which was amazing, as working parents it’s difficult to get time through the summer holidays so we were delighted that she wasn’t missing out! She can’t wait to come back again this year!

I've been using Gwen for my little boy since 2023. As a first time mum I was very apprehensive about leaving my child to return to work. Gwen was fantastic from the word go to keep my mind at ease and provide any reassurance needed. Over the years I have seen my little boy flourish and thrive thanks to all of the activities Gwen provides for the little ones to aid their learning. I love how much my little one gets to explore the world through play and socialising with different children and adults. He runs in the door in the morning barely looking back, he talks excitedly about going and it is clear he is in a safe nurturing and happy environment. Gwen provides pictures and updates through out the day of how he is getting on and is very approachable to answer any questions/queries. Gwen provides consistency with how we parent at home and takes the time at drop offs and pick ups to provide full updates from both sides. I will undoubtedly use Gwen again with my second child in the near future. I am thankful for Gwen and I'm happy to put my trust that my children will be well looked after whilst in her care.

We’re lucky enough to have our little boy attend Gwen’s childminding. He started with Gwen at 13 months and as two first time parents returning to work we were put at ease and supported so much as he settled into the new environment away from us. Gwen is empathetic, understanding, open and considerate of the challenge of leaving your child in childcare . She has open and consistent lines of communication and shares any concerns she has about our wee boy while he is in her care, she sends lovely pictures of the activities he has explored on outings or at home. She has made her childminding business a real home away from home and it’s such a good feeling to know he is in safe hands when not with us. Couldn’t recommend Gwen more
