My children have attended Dawn & Ian's childminders for the last 6 years (and continue to do so in school holidays). I cannot recommend them highly enough. Their setting is always clean and tidy with a dedicated area for a variety of children's toys and activities as well as a fully equipped garden. These toys and activities are just the right balance of fun and educational. One of the things I especially enjoy is the out-and-about time; they seem to go for a walk/adventure every other day (weather permitting).

Dawn is a friendly and energetic person who put me at ease with her kind, trustworthy, professional manner. The children really enjoy Ian's sense of humour and it is refreshing to have a couple working together. Both my children enjoy attending and have lots of stories to tell me when I pick them up.
