We’ve had such a fantastic experience with Kerry since starting in September 2024. From the very beginning, the setting has felt like a true home away from home. The house is always spotless, welcoming, and filled with a lovely range of age-appropriate toys and resources.

One of the standout features is the amazing garden — it's fully kitted out with brilliant toys and play equipment that the children clearly love. Our child has always come home happy, settled, and full of stories about what they’ve been up to.

The children are always busy, active, and engaged, whether they’re playing, creating artwork, celebrating holidays, or heading out on trips to the park or even the zoo. We’ve loved receiving daily updates and photos, and our child regularly brings home lovely creations and little gifts — it’s been so thoughtful and appreciated.

We’ve also really valued the regular updates on progress and development, with clear communication about how our child is being supported in line with the Early Years Framework. The childminder has also been incredibly supportive with transitions, such as adjusting to dropping a nap.

We feel very lucky to have found such a caring and well-organised setting, and are so grateful for the care and attention our child has received. They’ve truly thrived here.
