A professional, caring, nurturing environment.

Buttercup Lane Childminders and not only one of the best childcare providers I have come across but also one of the best businesses anywhere I have known. Karl and Lia truly engage with the children nurturing, educating, enriching and growing the children to show independence and resiliance. They are professional before anything else making sure safety and legislation are adhered to. However they do all this with the most family centric and humanistic approach. Buttercup have cared for both my children and I could not recommend them more highly.

You’ve seen the rest now see the best

Leaving your child in the care of strangers is the most daunting thing we do as parents. It was nearly 10 years ago that we met Karl and Lia for the first time and they put us both at ease straight away. My boys have had so much fun at Buttercup lane childminders. They have been well cared for and loved. Not to mention all of the fabulous days out and activities they have been treated to with them. Karl and Lia have become a firm part of our family and invaluable part of our support network. So glad we made the call and chose them all those years ago.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Absolutely amazing

I cannot express how amazing Lia and Karl are, they are the kindest and most nurturing people I have come across, they truly are the best of the best. They have cared for my little girl since she was 9 months old, she is now 3 and there is no one else I would rather have looking after her, we travel over 40 minutes every day to get to Karl and Lia because we LOVE what they offer. Buttercup Lane does not feel like a childminders but more like one big family. Karl and Lia go above and beyond every single day, they take the children on so many adventures and outings, they explore every season, learn about all different cultures, celebrate so many different days and give all the children the best possible learning experiences. They take beautiful pictures of everything that they get up to through the day and share them to keep parents in the loop. My daughter adores Karl, Lia and their whole family and I know that every day she spends with them she is loved and nurtured beyond belief and surrounded by the most wonderful role models. I cannot thank them enough for all they do, they make my life as a parent that bit easier. They are amazing people and I am so grateful they are a part of mine and my little girls life❤️❤️

Amazing people go above and beyond

I honestly could not ask for anyone better to care for my children for me.
Lia and Karl go above and beyond! They are not like any other childcare provider.
They take the children as part of their family (not just the children parents too🥰)
They teach and explore every single day. Lia and Karl have taken my children to so many places on so many lovely adventures, creating lasting memories. Most of all I know 100% my children are in safe, loving and caring hands while they are at buttercup lane.
I couldn’t do it without them and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for caring so wonderfully for my world, while I work xx
Five stars from me and mine.
A bond that will never be broken. 🫶
