Gemma Lloyd's Reviews

Nothing short of Amazing 😍!

Our baby is only just 1 so when looking for a childminder to look after her, we only wanted THE BEST! Our baby was a little miracle, she's already been through so much in her little life (born prem) & is still so tiny, so I needed to know the care she was getting would match that from home. I wanted some normality for her and also me to go back to work a few days a week. That is exactly what we get from Gemma. We started out doing a few hours a day and built up gradually until our baby was ready. She now puts her hands out for her when we get there (she doesn't talk yet) to go in so we know she's more than happy. Gemma said to me 'Your her safety blanket and your trusting me with your whole world. We do this at whatever pace is needed. Whilst she's with me I'll be her safety blanket and protect her like my own' and honestly this is exactly what she does. This woman is nothing short of Amazing! We get regular updates throughout the day regarding how she is, what food she's had, naptimes, photos and if they've been on a trip out etc. Gemma encourages her to interact with the other children when she's ready and also helps with her development and motor skills. Gemma is genuine, caring, kind and absolutely loves and adores her and I couldn't ask for anyone better to look after our child when we can't. Our baby will be staying there, learning, having fun & thriving at Gemma's until she's ready for school. I would highly recommend her to anyone and would never go anywhere else. We appreciate all you do! Thank you Gemma ❤️

A blessing for any mother

I was incredibly anxious about going back to work when my daughter was only 4 months old, I opted for a childminder for more 1:1 care. This was the best decision I ever made! I have absolute confidence in Gemma and have never felt my daughter was anything other than loved, respected and cared for to the best extent by Gemma. My daughter has been with Gemma for around 2.5 years now and bounces in every morning. I couldn’t have wished for a better childminder.

Amazing!

My daughter has been going to Gemma's for over a year. We had viewed a few childminders before finding Gemma and once I had met Gemma and her mum I knew my daughter wasn't going anywhere else. She is amazing with Hattie. Hattie absolutely adores Gemma and her family. Gemma really treats my daughter and son as one of her own. My son also attends the setting in half terms he absolutely loves his time there too, so much so when we do drop off he wants to stay with Gemma instead of going to school. You can really see Gemma loves her job as Hattie is thriving. Thank you Gemma xx

Amazing

Gemma has looked after my son for 3.5 years. Gemma provides a home from home, which was really important to us. The whole of her family create a welcoming environment for all the children she cares for. It feels like he is a part of their family.
Gemma is kind, friendly and really cares about my son. Since he has been going to her, he has developed in every way including with communication and numerical skills. He is so confident and happy in her care, I never have to worry about him.
I would have no hesitation in recommending Gemma to anyone.

Brilliant

When looking for someone to take care of my daughter I really wanted someone who would love and care for her like I do and I am so lucky to have found that in Gemma. She loves my daughter like her own and her whole family adore her and have welcomed her with open arms and continue to do so everyday. Gemma is kind, loving, caring and educational and her home is a home from home for my daughter.
