Yvette looks after my daughter, Annabelle, age 3. We have been working together this time around for for 18 months - since Annabelle was 20 months old and we are extremely happy with the care provided. Like many, Annabelle was a lockdown baby and as such found the transition into childcare quite daunting. Yvette was there for us every step of the way tailoring a settling in plan specific to our needs. This child focussed, nurturing approach continues and she’s supported us through other changes such as potty training and transition to pre-school. She’s also worked wonders with my fussy little eater!
Yvette provides a lovely home from home setting but is also very adventurous taking the children all around the local area and even into central London. My favourite trip was their visit to Chinatown to look at the lanterns and sample the food in celebration of Chinese NY! She also does lots of creative activities and they produce fabulous artwork!
The eagle eyed may notice that this is my 3rd review of Yvette - the first of which was 2017 when she was looking after my older son (now 10) so you can see that Yvette has really become part of the family. Indeed she was top of Annabelle’s invitation list for her recent 3rd birthday party.
I thoroughly recommend Yvette and v happy to give an even more detailed personal reference!

Leo, aged two now, has been with Yvette for just over a year now and he has such a great time! We're so lucky to have found her, she's warm, sensible and brilliant with the children. They are always out and about exploring new things, both locally in parks, libraries, etc. and with some trips to central London to see sights like Tower Bridge, Natural History Museum, etc. which is fantastic. She has a wealth of experience which is very reassuring and has great knowledge of child development. Yvette's house is really well equipped with a range of age-appropriate toys and we're often gifted with their creations! Yvette has a network of other childminders she spends time with so there is socialising with different children too. Any family is really lucky to get to know and work with Yvette.

Yvette has been Theo's childminder since he was 6 months old (he is now almost 3). I was dreading going back to work and very worried about leaving my baby and thank goodness we found Yvette! Most importantly Theo adores her and is always happy to go to Yvette's house. No wonder as they are always up to something fun. Yvette is very active and likes to explore with the boys. They go off to forest school, try different parks, museums, libraries and many other places. There is a group of childminders that Yvette is friends with in the area and so there are often other children to play with too.
At home Yvette provides structured, fun and age appropriate activities, has lot of toys for play and encourages healthy eating. Theo loves drawing, painting and baking with her. She is warm, caring and we have become friends over the years. I can't recommend her enough, any family would be lucky to have her!

Yvette has regularly looked after my 2 year old daughter over the last year and a half. She is kind, reassuring and Maggie loves spending time at her house. The kids are taken on wonderful trips around the local area including parks and nature reserves. She is friends with lovely local childminders which means the children have a greater chance to socialise. We have enjoyed meeting the other kids and their parents and now feel part of a community. Yvette has respect and a lovely manner with all of the children. She has an obvious interest in the children's development and focuses on educational games. She is kind, calm and knowledgeable which is very reassuring for a parent.

I first left a review for Yvette in April 2017. We have continued to work with Yvette - primarily for wrap around care but also for full days during the holidays and ad hoc nannying in our own home. We are still delighted with the care provided by Yvette and my son loves her. Yvette has become part of the family for us. She’s really flexible and provides a very relaxed home setting where my son can relax. During holiday care, Yvette thinks of a range of activities and has taken my son to the top London museums and even a River Thames tour. I thoroughly recommend Yvette and very happy to give full references on request.

I met with Yvette to discuss caring for my 6 month old son. She was very friendly and clearly has a lot of experience as well as knowledge about child development. I was very impressed with her set up and what she had to offer. In the end, we went with another childminder much closer to our home but I would have had absolutely no qualms leaving my child with Yvette knowing that he would have been superbly cared for.

I met with Yvette to discuss childming options for my 7 month old son. Yvette instantly bonded with my son and I was very impressed with her knowledge around child development and wide range of activities for her children. We ultimately went for a live in option for our children as my working commitments changed, but otherwise we would have chosen Yvette.

Yvette has been providing care for my 3 year old son since Christmas and we are all extremely pleased with how it is working. My son loves her. She's really brought him out of his shell and pays a lot of attention to his development. It's been my first experience of a childminder and Yvette has really opened my eyes to all the benefits. I would thoroughly recommend and am happy to give references.
