Marie is absolutely amazing. She has looked after both of my boys since my eldest was 12 months and my youngest 9 months. She has been more than a childminder- more like a friend and a second mum to the boys for the last 8 1/2 years. They have always wanted to go and have always been happily playing when I arrived to collect them. I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to look after them when I returned to work.
Marie has not only provided activities at home but also taken them on days out and trips to the library. I really couldn't have been a working mum without her. The boys think highly of her as she develops a good bond with the children she cares for. I have no doubt she is the best and recommend her to any parents looking for a childminder on the area.
Two different childminders recommended Marrie to me, and I took their advice and met Marrie not long ago. Despite being a mother who will not decide easily in such matters, It did not take long before I decided to choose Marrie over other childminders and local nurseries, which I visited in the last two weeks or so. Marrie is extremely understanding and has a real sense of humor. I felt so comfortable talking to Marrie about any specific requirements I had. Although My son is normally shy, he felt so comfortable to approach Marrie, talk to her and express his feelings. I am going to start my son's weekly sessions with Marrie soon and will update my review accordingly...
