Liz looked after my little boy when I went back to work when he was only 10 months - having worked with Childminders in the area for my other two kids before I knew I really wanted a home from home setting. Which is something I immediately felt when I first visited Liz at her home and met her lovely two girls!
My boy only spent 7 months in her care as unfortunately we moved out of the area but we still miss her immensely and wish we could have taken her with us!! He was always extremely happy going to her, at drop off he went in with his arms raised, wanting a cuddle from Liz :) I loved that she took him to local play groups, the library parks but also spent quality time with him at home. All was very well documented and I received updates of his day via Whatsapp most days.
As a full-time working parent, I also very much appreciated Liz's flexibility and communication - whenever we needed an extra day out of our contract, extra days during school holiday, occasionally swapping a day or when she offered to drop him home to me instead of me having to get him on occasion (as she knew I am not driving, it was extremely helpful and thoughtful)
I'm still extremely sad we've had to say goodbye to Liz but I wish her all the best for the future :)

From the second we stepped foot into Liz’s house, we knew she was the right person to look after our little girl. She was kind, soft, gentle in approach and oozing love. In the year that our little girls spent with Liz and her family she grew to love them and drop off really felt more like play dates with a family member. We were so grateful to have found Liz and there is absolutely nothing I could have wished for to be better with regards to her setting and the care she provided for our daughter.

We have been very happy with Liz looking after our nearly 2 year old son. Although we were a bit wary at the he beginning as she was quite new to the profession, we soon found out that as a mum and a pre-school assistant she was very well known locally and anyone would recommend her. This gave us some reassurance and we decided to give it a go.
Our son could not have been happier there. There is no doing nothing with Liz and his week was carefully planned with all sorts of varied activities and outings. Liz took the time to send many pictures and videos of his time there and was also extremely good at communicating with us especially during this challenging time of COVID. She also provided nutritious and healthy food as well as a varied diet which is something we are very watchful about.
As we got offered a place to the local preschool, our son sadly left after a few months but he is still very attached to her and the friends he made there. This speaks for itself, we cannot recommend Liz highly enough.

My daughter (2.5yr) is currently in Liz’s care and I have to say she loves it! Liz runs a warm, caring and stimulating setting at her home. My daughter goes and comes home very happy every day and that says a lot to us!

From the first moment I met Liz and her family I knew she would be the perfect person to look after my son. He started going there in September and he has the best time having fun and learning with her. When I drop him off he runs to Liz with open arms. As a working mum it is so reassuring to know how happy and well looked after he is in her presence. I really cannot recommend Liz enough. She is amazing x

Liz was a real asset to preschool. There wasn't a day she didn't receive my children with a huge smile. She is very warm, friendly, responsible and cared incredibly for them.
When I had questions about them, she answered them inmediately. She is very reassuring and experienced carer that will contact no doubt if I ever need childcare again.
I would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for care for their child.

I was lucky enough to work with Liz for 2 years and her warmth and professionalism showed every day. She got real pleasure from watching the children in our setting thrive and her fun and caring attitude made everyone around her smile 😊
