Our daughter started with Maggie a year ago at 18months old after a bad experience with a private nursery and we have never looked back and neither has our daughter- quite literally! Rose will happily walk in to Maggie's every morning and wave us off and close the door behind her. Even at the mention of going to Maggie's she's ecstatic, and why wouldn't she be as Maggie makes sure every day is fun packed, educational, structured and loving. She takes the children on outings, has an ever changing theme for the children to learn about, provides good, healthy meals and presents the food in creative exciting ways that encourages children to eat and to try new things. Maggie is so creative with the activities she does with the children, and she is always researching and looking for new things to do and invests significantly back into her resources to really enrich the kids' experience. On a more personal note Maggie is full of energy, genuine, kind, organised and understanding. It is with a heavy heart that we have had to find another childminder due to a house move, and for no other reason. Maggie truly is an exceptional childminder and exceeded my very high expectations.

Maggie had been looking after my daughter since she was 9 months old (she is now 2). We've had an amazing time and my little girl has learnt so much with her. She is extremely flexible and creative, they had themed weeks learning about all interesting things like transport, planets and dinosaurs. They also spend as much time as possible outdoors. We have a treasure box full of little art works they created. My little one has become very social as well, which was great as before she didn't have much interaction with other children.
Maggie is also great at sending updates which was really amazing at the start as it's never easy to leave your baby when you have to go to work. These photos always cheered me up seeing my little one having a blast.

This childminder is absolutely phenomenal and to this day I can't believe I found her on this website. As a first-time mum I was really scared about leaving my little girl who at the time was only seven months old with a stranger. I posted my need on this website and Maggie got in touch and was so enthusiastic over the phone that I had to meet her.
Upon meeting her I could tell just how much passion she had for working with children by the way she treated my little girl. She was less interested in discussing contracts, timings, penalties and restrictions and was much more interested in showing us what she could do and she took an immediate interest in my child rather than the bureaucracy that goes with childminding.
I was immediately put at ease and chose her to look after my little girl for 2 1/2 years until she joined a school based nursery. She is one of the youngest in her year having been born in August but I am always told just how clever she is and just how polite she is and I know that a lot of this is down to having had the most amazing childminder.
Maggie works alongside parents to achieve goals for children. She takes the children out on trips like they were her own, feeds them with good food, read to them, dances with them, sings with them, loves them, potty trains them, helps them to build their confidence and the list goes on and on.
OFSTED rates Maggie as outstanding; I rate her as a godsend. She will forever be in our lives now as to us she became much more than just a childminder.

Maggie has looked after my son for a few months now and all I can do is applaud her as she's been absolutely amazing!!! She has welcomed my son in, when returning to work after my mat leave & being my first child and being a little bit nervous leaving him with someone I do not know very well she has ensured me he's in good hands.
She has looked after him and the other children so well, taking them all as her own. She sends me pictures daily making sure I'm not missing out on him learning new things, the creative things they make/do, not forgetting the day trips out.
I truly do recommend Maggie as a great person/child minder and my son is happier than ever and really does enjoys his days with Maggie & the children which makes me happy placing him in her care.

Maggie has been minding our daughter since March and we are very happy with her so far. She is warm, personable and the kids all seem very happy in her care. They go out for trips and recently made a pottery plate for fathers day! She has been very flexilble as our daughter is only there 1 day a week but has had her more when we have needed this. She is now very settled with Maggie and I'm very happy to leave her, knowing she's in good hands, making the transition back to work quite easy.
