Amelia’s House has been a fantastic choice for us & our son. From the moment he started attending at just 1 year old, we’ve felt reassured knowing he's in a safe, nurturing environment where he can learn, explore, and socialise.
Annabel, who runs Amelia’s House, is everything we hoped for in a caregiver—kind, approachable, and clearly passionate about creating a positive space for the children. Our son quickly adapted to the warm atmosphere, and we’re so pleased with how well he has bonded with her, the other children and the endless skills he’s learning.
As a new parent, this transition felt like a huge step, but Amelia’s House has exceeded all of our expectations.

I highly recommend Annabel as an exceptional Montessori childminder who provided excellent care for my baby on an ad-hoc basis. She displayed immense patience, warmth, and genuine affection, creating a nurturing environment where my baby felt safe and loved.
Her Montessori approach was evident in the thoughtful activities and engaging lessons she tailored to my baby's developmental stage, fostering both intellectual and emotional growth. I was consistently impressed with her ability to adapt her teaching methods to suit my baby's unique needs, ensuring a stimulating and enriching experience during every interaction.
Beyond her professional expertise, she demonstrated a deep understanding of child development and a genuine passion for early childhood education.
I am truly grateful for the care and attention Annabel provided to my baby. Her commitment to Montessori principles, coupled with her kindness and compassion, make her an outstanding choice for anyone seeking a nurturing and educational caregiver for their child.
