Yvonne's Reviews

Wonderful Childminder

We feel incredibly lucky to have had Yvonne look after our daughter for the past two years. From the very beginning, she created a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where our daughter truly thrived. It was clear from day one that she genuinely cares for the children in her care and treats each one as an individual.

Our daughter absolutely adored her time with Yvonne. She was always excited to go in the mornings, then would come home and tell us about fun activities, creative crafts, outdoor play, and the friendships she has made. We were constantly impressed by the thoughtful and engaging routines Yvonne has provided. From learning activities to seasonal crafts and little celebrations that made every day special.

Communication was always excellent. We appreciated the regular updates, photos, and feedback, which helped us feel connected to our daughter’s daily experiences. More than that, we always felt reassured knowing she was in such caring and capable hands.

Yvonne played a huge role in our daughter’s early years and helped her develop so much socially, emotionally, and educationally. We couldn’t have asked for a better start for her, and we’re so grateful for the loving and supportive care she received.

Thank you for everything.
Warmest regards,
Anna with family

Highly recommend

Yvonne looks after our nineteen old son on an ad-hoc basis. He settle in after two days which was exceptional. He enjoyed spending the day with her and his peers. She is child focused. We will be using her again.

Exceptional childminder, highly recommend

Yvonne has looked after our son for the last 6 months, he started with her just after he turned 1. We are moving out of the area and so have had to find a new childminder, we wish he was able to stay with Yvonne though as he loves it in her daycare. He settled in straight away and loves spending the day with her. Yvonne quickly got to know him and picked up on little things that he does to show he enjoys something. She is caring, patient and calm and has created a lovely home from home environment, bringing a wealth of experience from her previous settings, but able to apply it to give the children individual attention and meet their needs.

As a speech and language therapist, I was keen to find a childminder who could support our son’s language and communication skills when he wasn’t with us. I was really happy and felt confident leaving him with Yvonne having seen how she interacted with him and modelled language with him, knowing that she would continue to support his development in this area.

Yvonne provides detailed and regular updates throughout the day and at the end of the day when I pick him up, from what he has eaten, information about his naps and nappies, to different activities they have been up to. It is lovely to see what he has been doing during the day and how much fun he is having. She takes the children to a range of settings, from the library to various playgroups. She has also introduced new activities to him in her setting, like painting which we haven’t yet tried at home.

We couldn’t have been happier with Yvonne as our childcare provider and will be really sad to say goodbye when we move. I would highly recommend Yvonne to anyone looking for a childminder.
