Our son has been coming to Cheryl’s setting since January 24, and he absolutely loves it. She made us feel so at ease and regularly sends pictures and updates of what they get up to. He has come on leaps and bounds since he started and I feel he is more than ready for nursery now! Honestly cannot reccomend her enough, I love that she takes the children out to explore regularly and that he isn’t stuck in 4 walls all of the time. She is friendly and approachable and my son loves her. Will be very sad to go in September!

Cheryl child minded my son for over a year from 12 months old and really made going back to work less of a stress for me. She was very understanding of the needs of my breastfed baby during the settling in period and had to pretty much cuddle/carry him for the first month while he got settled in a new environment. She is a naturally kind and patient person. He loved his time there and his file after a year showing all the fun and creative things he'd done was amazing! Cheryl sent me photos now and then to show me what he was up to, or texted when I'd been worried about him to let me know he was OK in the day. She just generally went the extra mile to reassure me and make sure he was having a fun time. Cheryl is very conscious of health and safety and I could always trust her to tell me if he had been a bit under the weather, fallen over etc. The children often went on outings, especially in the big summer holidays and after a year he was really part of the family there. So sad we moved and couldn't take Cheryl in our suitcases with us! When you get a childminder, you really get a whole family, and it's not just Cheryl but also her husband and lovely children that made my son's time there special. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend, and if/when we move back to the area I will be banging her door down for a place!
Great back garden with loads of play things, food was varied, no animals to worry about, fantastic clear contract so never any misunderstandings.

An amazing childminder, my little boy recently started with Cheryl and throughly enjoys it.
At the beginning my little boy was a little unsettle but now loves going and has made lovely relationships with the other children and Cheryl and her family.
I really enjoy hearing what he has been up to and what new things he has been doing.
Cheryl provides a lot of activities and keeps the children entertained well.
She provides lovely food and snakes and juice throughout and puts your mind at ease knowing he is in good hands.
If you had to recommend a childminder I would recommend Cheryl to everyone she has built such a lovely relationship with my son and I know he is receiving the care and activities to develop him at the best of his ability from her while I'm at college. A lovely lady
