A home away from home!

My son has thrived under Dilafrose’s care over the last 2 years. She always uses a variety of methods of learning to engage the children and teaches through play. She has so many toys and activities for the children to learn with – cars, blocks, train set, magnets, books, paints, musical instruments etc. My son enjoyed lots of sensory learning with playdough, sand, water, beads and dry rice. He has made significant progress in his understanding of numbers, counting and the alphabet, with Dilafrose’s help. His language and social skills have also developed quickly in her setting. Dilafrose has been great at increasing my son’s confidence with personal care, such as feeding himself, going to the toilet and dressing.
She has engaged the children in some lovely arts and crafts activities, as well as making treats such as pancakes and waffles. She has a spacious and clean setting for the children to play and a wonderful garden full of outdoor toys. The children have also enjoyed outings to the local fire station and park.
I feel very lucky to have found Dilafrose. Her setting really is a home away from home and my son is always happy to go there. She is warm and kind and has always been very flexible. She keeps in touch throughout the day with photos. I would not hesitate to recommend her as a childminder to other mums.

The best childminder I could hope for!

I’m writing this review for Beauty who has been looking after my daughter and I can’t praise her enough.
The learning techniques that she uses, the visuals, the toys, songs and books all play a major part in my daughter's development and has kept her engaged everyday as everyday she comes home with something new to tell us or show us. When it comes to the 7 key areas of learning I believe she has learnt so much across the board.
She pays very close detail to individual needs and has helped so much in potty training her as well which has been a challenge.
I have been very happy and impressed with the outings and experiences Beauty gives the children- they frequently go to the park. Beauty also has a lovely back garden where she does planting with the children- They also have a wide array of outdoor toys to play with including cars and scooters.
My relationship with Beauty has been so easy and without any stress- full of honesty as well. Any challenges we face we speak about them together and try to improve together so that we are on the same page as we both have the same end goal and my daughter's best interest at heart. I have another child on the way and intend of having Beauty as my 2nd Daughter's childminder as well. I can't recommend her enough, truly a wonderful, kind, sincere person we have been blessed and are very grateful to have had this opportunity!

Kind and caring family for my child

I am writing this this message to share with you my personal experience with Beauty

I am first time mum and I didn’t have the best start of my motherhood journey. However when we first met our lovely childminder Beauty, we (me and my husband ) were warmly welcomed. We were listened to and discussed day to day schedule in detail. From the first conversation we knew we found the childminder we have been looking for.

I remember my first day I dropped off my daughter as it was like yesterday, I was so emotional and overwhelmed by the fact that i was leaving my little (9 months old) baby with someone other than me or my husband, Beauty has made that day feel smother and sent me pictures and insured me that my child was in loving and caring hands. She has always informed us any changes and updated us regularly on how our daughter's day was, what she eat, if she slept, who’s played and was the highlight of the day for her .

Our experience with Beauty is high quality service, clear communication, flexibility, mindfulness to what our needs and wishes are.

My daughter feel like home , she has been looked after best way possible.

Beauty doesn’t do this job for the money, she does because she’s so passionate about helping families and especially looking after children and see them grown to confident and happy young human.

I love her service more than I could describe.

She has the great human qualities of kindness, supportive, caring, creative and makes your parenting journey less stressful and she is always there to help.
