Outstanding Childminder

5 stars

Claire's setting is absolutely amazing. The attitude and behaviour of the kids there is the best prove of the loving, nurturing and educating environment. This is all I wanted for my daughters. On top of that, Claire is very professional in terms of the admin side of the setting and the software used to keep us updated.

My eldest daughter was full time in Claire's setting for 4 years until she started Reception. Few days a week she goes to the setting before and after school when I have to be in the London office. It has been more then six months since my youngest daughter joined Claire's setting. Both of them love to go there and I am happy that my kids are growing in such a loving home.

I particularly like that Claire takes the kids not just to the local playground, soft play or library but also to the seaside when weather allows, to the Zoo and to farms where they can learn and explore. I completely trust her which puts my mind at ease when the kids are with her.

Last but not least, her support and advise in times of worry are priceless. She is more then childminder to our family. She is part of our life.

Amazing Childminder!

5 stars

We cannot speak highly enough of Claire. She really is an incredible childminder. Our little girl has been going to Claire's 3 days a week since she was 10 months old and she is now 3 and a half.
Claire provides so many wonderful opportunities and experiences for the children, she takes time to nurture their own interests and really gets to know each child and their likes and dislikes. Claire goes above and beyond for the families of the children she cares for and we cannot thank her enough. She always takes time to talk to us at pick up about our daughters day and is a wealth of knowledge and advice.
She provides a safe, comfortable, loving and caring environment for the children in her care. Our daughter looks forward to going to Claire's house, many of the things that she talks about are things that she has done with Claire.
Our daughter absolutely adores Claire and so do we!

Great childminding service

5 stars

Both of my boys have been with claire for over 4 years now. Claire is an amazing childminder, she understand each of the childrens individually. My kids have enjoyed many trips out with claire from soft play to strawberry picking and even trips to firestations. As a working parent I know my boys are extremely safe with claire. Their learning are fully supported from early learning to potty training. I can not rate the loving enviroment that claire has created.

Completely Outstanding

5 stars

Claire is simply amazing. Our little boy adores her and loves going everyday. They spend many days going on trips and learning new things out and about as well as educational play in the setting. As parents we know that Claire absolutely loves her job and there's no other way of putting it other than she was born to look after children! She's incredibly flexible and has helped us out on many occasions when we have had things crop up at work or at home, she really does treat our boy like he's her own and he is always happy to be with her and her family which is such a lovely feeling knowing he's in safe hands and where he's happy.

Since having him for 2 years now we have got to know Claire very well and consider her a good friend as well as our childminder.
