Lorraine's 5 Star Reviews

Fatanstic childminder

Lorraine is absolutely amazing at what she does, she is kind, caring, compassionate and knowledgeable in all things children! Lorraine provides a homely setting and a warm, caring engaging environment. Our daughter thrived with Lorraine and came on leaps and bounds while in her care. There are always loads of fun and educational activities being done with the children and they are always out and about too which is fantastic. Lots of healthy meals and snacks are provided. You are constantly kept up to date with what your child is up to through the day which gives great peace of mind, Lorraine always provides you with a book which documents everything your child has done that day - including photos! Which is such a great keepsake for them as they get older, she always gives reviews on your child too which is great for knowing where they are or areas they may need to work on. Lorraine fully supports you and your child while they are in her care, she is genuinely passionate about children which makes all the difference. Our daughter truly loved her time spent with you and her friends she made within your setting. You truly are so compassionate about the children within your setting and you truly care, you helped to nurture and build skills with our daughter which we are forever grateful for. You are amazing.

Best Childminder Ever

Lorraine is an amazing childminder! When I was looking for a childminder, Lorraine’s name came up all the time and she was always spoken so highly of—and now I can completely see why.

Her care and passion for what she does is second to none. She is so kind and made me feel completely at ease while my son was in her care.

Her communication is excellent, always keeping me updated and reassured throughout the day. She provides great, nutritious meals and puts a lot of thought into what the children eat. I also love that she regularly takes the children outdoors, giving them plenty of fresh air, playtime, and opportunities to explore.

I honestly couldn’t recommend Lorraine enough , she goes above and beyond in every way

We had a wonderful experience

My son has been with Lorraine for about 18months. He’s come up leaps and bounds since being with Lorraine. She’s always been incredibly accommodating with us and our little one adores her. He comes home with lots of handmade crafts and we get lots of updates throughout the day on what he’s up too- which is great. We are beyond pleased we chose Lorraine as our sons childminder and will miss her so much come January when my child starts nursery.

I'll miss my Teddy ....he's a wee lamb ..thank you for the lovely comment ❤️ it's been my absolute pleasure ❤️

The best Childminder our son could have!

We contacted Lorraine for some emergency childminding, and she was very accommodating. She welcomed our 5-months old son to her lovely home-based fairyland, with gnomes and a garden playground. The setting was amazing, but her pedagogical approach is outshining the most! Every day in the car, when I was picking him up, he was mumbling songs in excitement and happiness. Additionally, we had regular feedback daily and some really lovely photos, some of which we even framed. Lorraine, a huge thank you for everything!!!

Extremely helpful for my little one

Lorraine contacted me after a desperate plea for help. I’m so glad I chose to send my daughter to her. She has had a wonderful time when she has been there and Lorraine has been a great person for us both. She lives for kids and always keeps me up to date with what they are up to. She has been really helpful and flexible to accommodate our needs to cover my work. Thank you Lorraine. It means the world.

Absolutely fantastic

We love Lorraine, my son settled in very well with Lorraine and her other cubs, as a parent she kept me up to date on his development anything that she felt I needed to know about my son or her services. My son adores Lorraine, and I consider her a fantastic childminder, I would highly recommend Lorraine and her service.

Your son is a joy to childmind ❤

Best Childminder About!

I have used Lorriane twice now in June for 1 months as I was working from home, Lorraine was so accommodating with the needs I required and I have started to use her again this year as I have had issues with the private nursery my son has been at. Lorraine is a fabulous childminder as is always putting the kiddies needs first. She is always updating us with what our child is up to through out the whole day. Lorraine is the most genuine and down to earth lady you will ever meet. I will forever grateful for her and the best services she provides.

Amazing service, highly recommend

My son has been with Lorraine since he was 14 months old and we all absolutely love her. She is like part of the family. She loves your chold like they were her own.
She is always out and about and doing lots of activities with the kids. She supports their development and works with you for anything you are doing in they way upu like to do it. (Potty training, healthy eating) Lorraine was very supportive when my family was going through some tough times. During covid Lorraine's service felt very safe. Guidelines were followed, increased cleaning hand sanitiser etc. Lorraine always accommodates any special requirements we have had with holidays, extra days. We would be lost without her!!!
