Real stories from Clients who trusted us as childminders

Charlotte creates a calm, nurturing, hugely welcoming environment for babies, toddlers and children of all ages. I've been so impressed with the activities she lays on, her relaxed, can-do attitude and the whole way she approaches childminding. Both of my children absolutely loved spending time with Charlotte, and struggle with leaving as they enjoy themselves so much while under her care. I feel extremely lucky that she came into our lives - and I know my children feel the same way. Thank you, Charlotte!

Jodie Halford Mum

I was initially quite nervous about leaving my 6-month-old daughter with a childminder, given how young she is. However, from the moment we first met Charlotte, my concerns were quickly put to rest. Charlotte created an environment where my daughter felt comfortable and secure right from the start. Her warm and welcoming demeanor instantly reassured both me and my little one. What truly stands out about Charlotte is her flexibility and attentiveness. She has been incredibly accommodating in following my daughter's schedule and has been a great help with the weaning process. Charlotte has thoughtfully adapted her setting to cater to the needs of a young baby, ensuring that it’s both safe and nurturing.

Jess Mattock Mum

My son absolutely loves coming to Charlotte and her setting! He is always happy and excited to spend the day with her and his friends. Charlotte is caring, supportive and offers a home-from-home environment. The communication has been amazing since he started and he is thriving in a fun and educational environment! X

Gemma Pavitt Mum

Charlotte is absolutely incredible with my son, she is creative and patient and my son adores her. He was waiting on my doorstep 45 minutes before we needed to leave just because he was so excited to see her. Her setting is friendly and welcoming and just like a home from home so my son feels confident and safe to be himself and thrive whilst in Charlotte's care. If I could rate more than 10/10 I absolutely would.

Nic Lawrence Mum

My Daughter told me she had a great time when I picked her up and she’s asked me almost everyday since when she is going back as she enjoyed it so much! Charlotte is very friendly and makes you feel so comfortable and the setting is brilliantly laid out with a mix of educational and imaginative play options. Highly recommend!
