Excellent childminders are hard to find. Patty and her assistant Ola are passionate about looking after children. They pay attention to detail, empathetic and make delicious, nutritious meals. My daughter aIways looks for to going to Pattys everyday😊.
I am at peace when my daughter is at Patty's setting, with regular updates during the day, you know that your child is safe and in good hands. As a student my hours vary and Patty is very accommodative and flexible.
Patty thank you for the excellent service you provide. We love you xx

My little girl loves going to Patty. She's always coming back with stories to tell about their lovely and active day. The setting is very friendly, there are loads of activities that help her develop in a nice rounded way. Kids spent quite some time outside in the garden playing organised and free in nature. All of the children are happy and fulfilled at the end of the day on pickup.
Patty sends updates on the children's day throughout the day so we know what they have enjoyed. She is also a good communicator, trying alway to find a solution to a problem. She has always respected my asks re my daughter, from cloth nappies to dummy to nap times.
All in all, I'm very happy

Thank you sooo much. Thank you for trusting us with you amazing precious baby
My daughter use to attend pattys childcare and she loves every moment of it. Even now at 6 years of ages she still asks to go back in holidays. Patty is very friendly and great with kids. She cooks nice nutritional food and has lots of activities for the kids to engage in daily. She also has an assistant Ola who is also fab with the children she is very creative and loves to bake cakes with the children. The children have the opportunity to go on trips and outdoor activities such as parks and museums just to mention a few. I have no negative comments about this childcare provider pretty much one of the best from my past experience. Patty is a easy to get hold of via wats app and she updates you daily with images of what your child has been up to.

Thank you! Thank you for trusting us with your precious child
My two grandchildren are looked after by patty and her assistant ola they are amazing and very accommodating my eldest grandchild was struggling to settle in at a nursery and I couldnt bear him being distressed all the time so I found patty on childcare.co.uk and it was the best thing ever she and ola have settled him in lovely it was a shaky start but they were so loving and reassuring that he settled in after a few weeks he has been going here since the age of just over 2 years he will be 5 this year and unfortunately will be leaving to go reception but his little sister will stay until she reaches that age to they have both developed excellent confidence skills nappy training was a quick progress with the support they enjoy the home cooked meals never ever come home hungry and they always want to talk about their activities of that day it's always something different I wouldn't wish for a better nursery as this one meets all my needs just one word explains it and that's AMAZING

My daughter really enjoyed her time. And I felt so at ease knowing she was in Patty’s hands.
Nourishing meals, learning, teaching, even cooking with the children.
I would highly recommend.
Absolutely loved the time my child spent with this child minder.
Even prepared her for school.
