my little one has been going to Angela’s since she was 8 months old, starting with one day a week then up to 3 days a week since returning to work. I go to work with zero anxiety leaving my little girl who absolutely loves Angela to the point she waves me off in the morning! Angela has a very caring nature and ensures the kids are very well looked after. She writes a daily diary of the kids activities and diet. Home cooked food is provided by Angela which is very important to us. The kids are outdoors a lot which I also believe is very important. Overall, Angela displays a very professional, experienced childminder who clearly loves her job 😊

My daughter has been with Angela for just over a year. She goes for 3 mornings and after school once a week. As soon as I met Angela I just knew I’d be happy to leave my daughter in her care. She is so lovely and my daughter adores her, she settled in no problem.
Nina loves crafts and Angela always makes a special effort to help her create cards and keepsakes. Would definitely recommend Angela to any parents looking for before and after school care!

My daughter Nina started going to Angela when she was 9 months old. I had never left her with anyone outside of our immediate family and was quite nervous, but Angela was very reassuring and sent regular updates and photos of Nina so I didn’t have to worry. We had a settling in period where Nina would go in for a few hours at a time, and we found that she warmed very quickly to Angela. Nina is always so happy to see Angela at drop off and I leave her feeling reassured that she is safe, cared for and having lots of fun.
Angela has a kind, caring and calm nature and her home is spotless and very organised. She provides lovely home-cooked, healthy meals that cater to Nina’s dietary requirements. They spend a lot of time outdoors, which is very important to us, going for daily walks as well as picnics, visits to the park and Greenbank gardens. We are provided with a daily diary with information on Nina’s nap times, meals, wet/dirty nappies and I always enjoy reading what she’s been up during in the day.
Our experience with Angela has been nothing but positive - it really does feel like a home from home and we cannot recommend Angela highly enough.

We chose Angela through a recommendation from a friend and we’re so glad we did.
William has been in her care for just over a month and has settled in beautifully without any trouble.
Angela is really lovely and very professional. Upon meeting her, the place was spotless, toys all cared for, cleaned and a welcome pack for us. William felt right at home immediately in her environment and pulled out all the cars.
Upon William starting, he had a 2hr solo period with her, which he really enjoyed. He’d been there twice already on brief visits to meet Angela and to check over paperwork. All of these smaller visits really helped William settle in quickly and also gave us a great opportunity to ask any questions to ensure Angela was right for us.
William also has allergies which Angela is fully aware of and handles it beautifully. She prepares freshly cooked meals which puts me at ease that everything it contains will be fine for William. I also love that he gets a hot meal there every day (and he loves her food). Thank you!
Angela overall has been a star and William just loves going there every week. He’s happy to go to her in the morning and also has a smile across his face when I collect him.
When we’re home, we like to read the diary Angela prepares which depicts his day.
If you’re lucky enough to gain a place with Angela, it won’t be a decision you’ll regret.

Angela is a real joy to have as a childminder. Our daughter loves going and has such fun. She gets a great mix of age appropriate educational activities and play with lots of outdoors play. She is just wonderful and we have no hesitation in recommending her

Angela has been looking after my son for over a year now. He was extremely shy to begin with due to the Covid lockdown but Angela has worked wonders with him and he’s now a really outgoing little boy who loves to chat about the friends he’s made at Angela’s house.
I chose Angela as our childminder due to her warm and caring nature and the home from home environment she provides. Her house is spotless and her playroom is stocked with an excellent selection of toys/books. As Angela stays a stones throw from Greenbank Gardens the children spend a great amount of time running around and playing outdoors together.
Angela provides excellent home cooked meals and is supremely organised. I love that she also provides a daily diary that details the food/drinks eaten, a log of dirty/wet nappies and the activities done each day for each child.
When I drop my son off to Angela before work in the morning, he skips in the door and I leave safe in the knowledge that he’s in the best possible hands.

My son Jacob, who is one, started with Angela in April and I couldn’t be happier. Despite only attending one day a week he has settled fantastically. I was concerned one day a week wouldn’t be enough for him to become familiar but huge credit to Angela he is happy, settled and loves his time there! Angela is patient, fun and clearly cares greatly for all the children. She has them outdoors for much of the day which is fantastic and they have a fun, varied day. I cannot recommend enough. For one day a week or full time, Angela is a perfect choice!

Arran went to Angela on a Wednesday and settle so quick. My other 3 kids had always went to nursery so going to a childminder was a first for us. Its such a different experience it was more home to home which was great with Arran still being a baby. Angela is such a lovely person and it's all about the children rather than it being a business. Angela would send me pictures of him during the day which reasures you and also fills in a diary each day of what he has ate and what they have been up too. Arran and myself miss Angela so much and only left due to being able to get more days in nursery as Angela only had the one day available at the time. If u are lucky to get a place with Angela for your child you won't regret it.

Angela is a wonderful childminder. She has been looking after both of my boys over the last 3 years, both from the age of 9 months. I feel very lucky to have found her, she is great with babies and kids. My boys have lots of fun with Angela going to local parks, the library, soft play and during school holidays on their day trips to Loch Lomond, Troon and beyond. Angela and her entire family are so welcoming. Her house is spotless and she provides healthy home cooked meals which my hungry boys love!!

Angela was our childminder for four years with both my son and daughter. After maternity leave with my son and my daughter going into P1 I was concerned about going back to work. Angela was a fantastic childminder, always patient, kind and caring. My children loved going to her house with all the lovely days out and cosy days in too. For us I felt more comfortable with my children being in a homely environment and that’s exactly what Angela provided. Angela’s home is spotless, she is well organised and a great communicator. I still have the daily diaries and children’s personalised profiles which is a lovely keepsake and brings back lots of memories for the kids too. Highly recommend!
