My son had the most amazing time with claire over a couple of years, before he was ready to start reception. Claire’s setting was always homely and she shared her space with the children like it was thiers too. My son loved being there, some days even telling me he wasn’t ready to leave yet after an 8 hour day haha!
My neice and nephew also went to Claire’s before my son and was not only highly recommened by my family but i knew Claire from picking them up sometimes and she just had such a wonderful presence i just knew then where i would want my future children to go.
Claire was amazing at communication from daily diaries, tapestry and bump notes if ever there was an accident, she would always make sure i was aware of even the small things. Claires always up to date with education and milestones so when my son was coming up to school age he was more than ready and i honestly put that down to Claire ensuring he was, she’s not only an amazing childminder but she teaches early years curriculum to a level and I can’t thank her enough for Rios confidence in his learning and preparing him for the outside world and school. Claires family are also wonderful and my son loved being around them too, whenever they were in the setting at home time or on day trips.
Anything the children made would always come home, and day trips or park trips were a luxury, nothing was ever too much.
Her home was very clean and meals and snacks provided were always healthy options and home cooked. breakfast options were always the childrens choose from a selection and Claire worked alongside my picky eater to make sure he ate.
We were sad to leave Claire to start school but if i ever fell pregnant again, there’s only one person i will be calling for Childcare services.💕
