Myself and husband have been sending our boys for the past 6 years and have had great experience throughout. It is now time for our youngest to start pre school and Linda will be hugely missed. Linda is great with the children, always taking them to parks/soft plays and different play groups. Excellent childminder. Thank you so much for your years of service.

Thank you for your lovely review, it's been a pleasure to look after your boys and been very nice talking to you and your husband.
We’ve been with Linda for a short while but already within 6 months our daughter (2.5 years old has come along in leaps and bounds, every day we get all of the crafts they’ve been up to, EF can also count to 12 and understand quantity to 5, she’s knows her colours, alphabet and sings her days and brings back her dancing and movements from playing with the other kids. Linda encourages the kids with playing together and brings them out to bigger playgroups to meet other kids. It’s so comforting to know that Linda treats every child as her own. She has been very helpful with listening to my requirements for EF, as she wasn’t finished with her naps Linda helped accommodate this and more recently helping with her potty training. She is thoughtful, kind and not ridged on drop off and pick up times (have experience stricter minders), she also helped with wonderful conversations and advice on EFs learnings at pick up and drop offs. Highly recommend sending your little ones to Linda!

Thank you for your very kind words. your daughter has been a pleasure to look after and see her excel in her learning, it's been a pleasure having parents that work alongside giving your daughter the best.
Linda’s had our little boy for nearly 3 years now, and he has had such a lovely experience! Linda really knows the children she looks after and she has supported with speech, reading, colours and so much more. Our child loves it there and is always so excited to be there since they do so many different activities in such a caring setting. She really takes the time to have conversations about progress, what is going well and the areas where more support would be helpful. We are moving away from the area but are so sad to be leaving and will definitely be staying in touch!

Thank you for your kind words and lovely review. I will miss you all and our chats, I have enjoyed looking after you child.
Linda has been so kind and wonderful with our daughter. Ava was only 10 months old when she started with Linda and I was really nervous about starting childcare but Linda’s kind and caring approach put my mind at rest. Linda provides a warm and loving family home for children and treats them all as though they are her own. Ava has been so happy with Linda and it has allowed me to start back at work knowing that Ava is well taken care of. Linda gives the children a mix of playgroups and fun activities at home so I know that Ava is still getting the social aspect she’d get from a bigger nursery whilst also having the family setting of a childminder. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us Linda!

Thank you so much for a lovely review, it's been a pleasure looking after Ava and talking to you. I wish all of you the very best for the future.
Linda looked after my daughter for 3 months following our previous childminding closing at short notice. Linda was welcoming and my daughter settled quickly. In the three months she was with Linda she grew in confidence and made clear progress with her colours, numbers and letters. She was always happy to go to Linda’s and made lots of friends.

It's been a pleasure meeting you and looking after your daughter, watching her confidence build and seeing her progressing in the setting.Thank you for a lovely review.
Both of my little boys have been going to Linda since they were 8 months old (eldest now 5 years and youngest 2 years) and we have had excellent service from her throughout. The children always come home happy, having been to playgroups, parks, time in the garden, for nice walks out and plenty of learning and crafts whilst in her setting. Really recommend her services. Thank you very much.

It's been a pleasure, thank you Steph for a lovely review.
Linda has looked after my son for almost 2 years, Linda is so lovely with the children and my son always has a fantastic time with her, it was nice to see him coming out with a big smile on his face everytime! She does take them to lots of lovely places, including play groups. My son loves Football and Monster trucks, Linda went out and purchased these for her setting for my son to incorporate in his learning. I have seen my son grow into an independent and confident young boy, with the support of Linda. I would highly recommend Linda to anyone looking for a childminder. It's lovely to be able to go to work with the knowledge that you are leaving your children in a safe environment with someone who has a heart of gold.
Thank you Linda

Thank you Sarah for a lovely review, It has been a pleasure looking after your son. If there's anything I can help with in the foreseeable future I would only be to happy to help.
Linda has been a massive part of my daughters life from 8 months old, she is now 5 years and throughout this time my daughter has developed a wonderful relationship with Linda.
For the last 5 years Linda cared and helped my daughter develop in a lovely setting, we are so thankful we found a childminder like Linda. We are now only moving on as we no longer require childcare but could not recommend Linda enough to anyone else looking for a safe, family like setting.
Thank you Linda for all you have done for us!

Thank you very much for your kind words.Your daughter was a pleasure to look after and watching her develope. I will miss her in my setting. I wish you all the very best for the future.
My daughter has been going to Linda after school for almost a year now! I was so worried at 1st as it was her 1st year at school and trying to find childcare was hard. But once I found Linda and met her I knew straight away my LG would be happy there. She has absolutely loved going. Linda provides a home from home setting and care to all children. She has made some wonderful friends here and will be extremely sad to leave.
Would definitely recommend

It's been a pleasure looking after your child, and talking to you.I wish you good luck for the foreseeable future.
Linda looked after my daughter when she was about a year old, I was in a difficult circumstances and she took care not only of my daughter but me as well. My daughter has been with Linda till she went to reception. She absolutely adored being with her and the children! Despite my daughter is no longer with Linda, we still are in touch and daughter remembered of Linda fondly. We didn’t got ourselves only a childminder but a good friend for life as well!
