Amanda looked after two of my children. My eldest daughter went to her at 16 months after a few unhappy months at nursery. To start with she was very quiet and shy. Amanda worked really hard with her and in no time she settled in and became a much happier confident child. When I returned to work after having my second child I had no hesitation in leaving my son with her as well.

Amanda takes great care to get to know each of the children well and forms lovely bonds with each of them. She attends toddler groups and other childminders houses so the children have an opportunity to mix with other children.

I left Amanda as I had a third baby and have decided to take a career break. But my children adore her and so we still meet up regularly. She genuinely cares about all the children she looks after and all the children love her!

I would have no hesitation in recommending her as a childminder.
