Mary has been working with us as a nanny, taking care of our child D for 6 months now. D was 15 months when she started with us. We have been very happy with Mary all through this time. She is very patient with D and encourages him to try a lot of new things. Mary has been able to understand what D likes and has offered him activities suiting his interests. She takes him to a lot of playgroups, play dates, local library, museum, animal farms and parks. He has learnt a great deal during his time with Mary.

D is very happy every morning when Mary arrives at ours. He knows he is going to have a fun-filled day that he loves. He likes being on his feet and Mary provided him ample opportunities for the same. She has taught him a lot of words, songs and generally gotten him quite independent. In addition, she has given him a chance to try things like crafts and he loves pasting stuff now.

Mary always keeps in touch with us during the day letting us know what he eaten, when he slept, what did he like, where did he go etc. She also sends us D’s pictures during the day to let us know what he is doing. With Mary, D has learnt to socialize a lot with other kids.

Mary is very trustworthy and reliable. We are always at peace knowing D will be taken care of when he’s with Mary. She also understands child behavior very well, saying the right things to them in the right way. D is very well behaved around Mary and listens to her. I’d highly recommend Mary to anyone who is looking for a nanny in this area.

My girl - Hannah started childcare full time 5 days by Mary since she was 9 months old for near a year. Mary is very patient with young kids. My girl is happy every morning as she knows she will going to Mary’s place for the day. Hannah always smile and laugh on the way to Mary.

She always bring my girl to playgroup, Library , activities, park and other childminder’s place to socialise with other kids. She teaches Hannah to speak, singing nursery rhymes and play with toys. She is very patient to feed Hannah to eat when she was a baby. She is very details and clean, my kid never got nappy rash and all the clothing are super clean. During the day she will text me about Hannah ‘s situation and report to me quickly if Hannah is sick or unwell. I feel very secure and safe to let Mary’s take care Hannah full time.

Mary’s place is very tidy and clean and suitable for childcare. The place is near to the Redriff school, close to bus stop and to the woodlands which is very convenient to parents. The area is very safe and family friendly too.

Mary is a cheerful and friendly lady which all the kids love to stay with. My 5 years old daughter go to Mary’s for holiday and half term sometimes and she loves it too.

I highly recommend Mary as a high quality , warm hearted childminder for you to consider. I am sure your kids will love to stay with her and have fun.

Mary took care of both my daughters, R from the age of 1.5 years to nursery and A from 7 months onwards. The kids have felt comfortable and happy with her right from the start. R is now 5 and still drops by Mary’s house to say hi to her, showing how fond the kids are of her. The kids also love her 2 dogs.

Mary brings the kids out everyday to different groups/ activities to let the kids mix with different kids. When the weather is bad, Mary has a great selection of age appropriate toys and activities at home. She has been working hand in hand with us on our children’s development (for example, potty training, learning alphabets etc). She always keeps us updated on the kids development, kids activities for the day, nap times and nappy changes. She also took the effort to understand some Chinese and Greek words to understand the kids better when they mix English with other languages.
Both my husband and I are working parents, and she has been very understanding and flexible with us.
Mary has a lot of experience with children and I would highly recommend her.

Mary cared for our daughter for over 2 years starting when she was 9 months old, only stopping because we moved out of the area. We could not have found better childcare for out daughter, A.
Right from the start when I was a nervous mum returning to work, we were completely at ease with leaving A with Mary. Her communication with parents is excellent and she has always engaged A in a wide range of activities that have encouraged and stimulated her development. As well as doing a wide range of activities at home, Mary takes the children out either to groups or to do activites with other childminders and their children most days so they can socialise; A was able to build up relationships with other children she saw regularly.
Mary has 2 dogs that are very gentle and excellent with children. A loved interacting with them and helping to care for them.
As working parents, Mary helped make our lives easier with her flexibility. She is a genuine, caring and conscientious person who has cared for our daughter as if she were her own and helped us raise a happy and confident little girl. I would recommend her to everyone.
