We love Pat!! Pat has now looked after both of our boys from 10months old through to them starting school. Pat has so many outstanding qualities. She is reliable and has always been there for us over the years. Both of our boys have absolutely loved their time with pat as there is a mixture of learning and social acitivies. Pats behaviour management is amazing and we feel has positively impacted our boys. Communication has always been good and in the early days when our boys were initially a little bit nervous was very reassuring. We would highly recommend Pat to anyone.

Our daughter started going to Pat’s in feb 2021. Prior to this our daughter had been at nursery and cried every day at drop off (and throughout the day when there). Within a few sessions of being at Pat’s she was so happy to be dropped off and really started to come out of her shell. Pat has helped our daughter develop her social skills no end and build her confidence. The setting is fantastic as it really is a place where kids get to just be kids, enjoy their time playing and learning. Pat has the perfect balance of kindness and firmness with the kids, instilling politeness and manners whilst also being caring and attentive. I would recommend Pat to anyone and everyone, we couldn’t have been without her!

Where to begin...Pat has been an absolute superhero in the nearly 3 years that our daughter has been with her! We feel incredibly lucky to have hit the goldmine that is Pat's childcare. Our daughter has been going to Pat's since she was 10 months old and it truly feels like a home from home for her. She is happy, safe and well cared for each and every day. Pat is incredibly reliable, goes above and beyond always, she is understanding (of both the children and their parents!) and kind as well as a fount of knowledge on all things babies and toddlers! The children get plenty of time to socialize with others and go to a wide range of places (pre covid of course!). Pat knows the children in her care very well indeed and the love and respect they have for her and each other is testament to the the quality of her setting. Thank you Pat!

Well what a lovely review and thankyou for allowing me to have the pleasure of looking after Willow warbler she is full of character and in her words a beautiful princess , you should be proud parents as your little girl is out going and full of confidence which in turn reflects on you as good parents x
Pat has been brilliant for our boys, she has been looking after our first for 3 years and our second has settled in so well with her since starting in the summer last year.
Our children enjoy lots of time outside with Pat and the other children. It's lovely to see all the opportunities they have to both play and learn in their logs.
It is clear to see Pat has a wealth of experience with children. Pat has supported our children in reaching their milestones including weaning, toileting, writing and speech.
Pat has always been reliable and very efficient. She has a happy, safe and secure home and our boys love their time there!

Thankyou so much for your lovely review , your cheeky chappies are a pleasure to have and are a credit to you and Martin, the quote from your eldest the other day will remain in my heart forever , when the big man says yes the one with the messy hair you can go to the beach and have a lick of my ice cream then I can have a lick and share it (covid lockdown from the eyes and lips of a 4 year old) ♥️
My Daughter Emily has been going to pat for 3 years now, before school, after school and the school holidays. She is a fantastic childminder and I wouldnt want Emily to go anywhere else. She is very interactive with the children of all ages, She has a warm welcoming house with lots of space for the children to play and learn. I would recommend her to all of my family and friends.

Thankyou so much for your review always a pleasure to have Emily x
Pat has looked after my daughter since she was 8 months old. My daughter has been very settled, well cared for and happy in Pat's care.
Pat has always been positive and like a friend to me and my other half which has made the relationship so much easier.
I would always recommend Pat to anyone wanting a secure setting for their child and to provide plenty of activities to keep them occupied
Jessica has flourished in Pat's care

Pat has looked after our three year old son for the past two years and is an oracle when it comes to young children! This has been a massive support to us as first time parents.
Pat has helped develop our sons speech and installed good manners in him. She has dealt with fussy eating, toilet training, tantrums, given advice on the usual illnesses/ailments and a refusal to get in his car seat at the end of the day!!
We like that Pat takes the children out and about every day to a wide variety of activities, groups as well as to the park, dog walking, playgrounds, the beach etc.
Her home is clean, safe, secure and all the children in her care are lovely. Our son loves the time he spends with Pat, which in turn has given huge peace of mind that he is happy and well looked after while we are working.
We put a lot of time and consideration into choosing the right childcare for our son and we are so glad we chose Pat. She has never let us down in two years and is totally reliable.
We'd be lost without Pat!

Thank you for such a lovely review its nice to know that I am appreciated. It truly is a lovely blessing looking after Mr Ramsell X
My daughter has been with Pat since January 2015 and I couldn't be happier, I am about to have my second child so my daughter will be finishing with Pat this month while I'm on maternity leave but I'm keeping everything crossed she'll have availability again next year!
I couldn't of asked for a more fun, safe and caring environment for my daughter. Pat has supported us through out potty training, a fussy eating stage and encouraged her speech development hugely!
I would recommend her services to anyone.

My son Torrin has been in Pats care since 2010. I am a single parent who relies on childcare in order for me to work, my son has now started school so i only have Pat in the school holidays due to the fact that my son and i couldn't give her up.
Pat takes time to know and understand her children, the fun activties, crafts, games and learning logs are great, Pat runs a happy house with a firm but fair policy which is spot on.
I can honesty say as a mother and single parent i would never have been able to work with out the help and support of Pat, Torrin and my self will miss seeing Pat on a weekly basis but very much look forward to seeing her in the holidays, well worth 5 stars and more.

Pat has looked after my son for the last six and a half years. During that time she has been one hundred per cent reliable, flexible and trustworthy. She is totally commited to her profession and to the health, happiness and well being of the children she cares for.
Her home environment is clean, warm, welcoming and fun, and the facilities she has for entertaining the children is excellent. She encourages creative activities, interaction with others and regularly takes the children for days out. She is also instrumental in developing good values, behaviours and kindness towards others. Pat has a wealth of experience and knowledge and on occasions she has even provided me with good sound advice and guidance on learning techniques to adopt when needed. ie. toilet training, discipline.
Whilst having to work, Pat has given me total peace of mind and the reassurance that Luc has been in the best hands. She is a positive influence and a very kind person. To anyone seeking a childminder I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is first class!
