Lulu looked after all three of my boys over the last 8 years, from when they were 1 years old up until they went to school. My youngest is now heading to school and we’re really going to miss her!
She’s offered so much love and care, they all settled well and enjoyed their time with her. Lulu has a great playroom for the children, and offers so many fun activities for learning development. She also takes them on outings such as the library, farm, Air Museum.
I highly recommend Lulu if you’re looking for that home from home for your little one where they’re supported to thrive and develop in their own time. Plus, every week she send lots of photos so you get to see what they’ve been up to!

Thank you. It has been a privilege to look after your boys. I will miss you all x
We are incredibly grateful to Lulu for the wonderful care and support she provided to our son. She was always professional, caring and attentive, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about his wellbeing and happiness. Knowing he was in such good hands gave us great peace of mind.
Communication could occasionally have been a little more consistent, but overall we were very happy with the experience. Our son was happy and settled in Lulu’s care, and we truly appreciate everything she did for him. We would happily recommend Lulu to other families looking for a caring and reliable childminder.

Thank you. I loved looking after your little one.
Lulu looked after my son full-time while me and my partner worked, and I can honestly say she has been one of the most important people in his little life. From the very beginning, I trusted her completely — not just with his care, but with helping guide me as a new mum. She was always there with advice, reassurance, and practical tips that made such a difference to our family.
The progress my son has made under her care is incredible. Our new childcarer (we had to move due to relocating house) was genuinely amazed at how far along he is for his age — and that is entirely down to Lulu. She has taught him so much, nurtured his confidence, and treated him with such love, patience, and understanding.
Leaving Lulu’s setting was heartbreaking for all of us. She isn’t just a childminder — she’s someone who becomes part of your child’s world in the most positive and meaningful way. We feel incredibly lucky to have had her, and I know we’ll never find another Lulu.
If you’re thinking about trusting her with your child, don’t hesitate. She is one in a million!

Thank you. I loved looking after your little one, watching him grow and his personality develop has been an absolute joy. I will miss him and you
Lulu has been an absolutely amazing childminder! She has been like a second mother to my son who had been with her for the last three years. He is now moving on to primary school and he is more than ready to go into this next phase due to the care he had received. Lulu has been a safe and happy place for my little boy, a home away from home, and he will return for holiday care. I cannot recommend Lulu strongly enough she has been instrumental in forming my son's character and he has turned into a lovely, caring little boy. I will always be grateful for her love and care.
