I have used Ruth now for well over a decade and can whole-heartedly recommend her as a childminder. Her setting is safe, friendly, fun, educational and comfortable. Ruth herself is brilliant with the children and always treats them as unique individuals. She is compassionate and always strives to be top of her game through offering best practice policies and keeping ahead of any changing childcare guidelines. Her term time (for little ones) and holiday agendas (for all) are varied and exciting for the children and my kids always begged me to go there as often as they could! She always has a great mix of indoor and outdoor activities planned and there is always an important learning aspect to each event - often with appropriate arts and crafts follow-up afterwards. Everything is always so well thought through. In my son’s words: ‘she is funny, kind, playful, always happy and always has brilliant ideas for activities and I really love her’. I think that really says it all! Fully recommend her. Best childminder ever! Xx
