My daughter has been going to linda for a few years now and she absolutely loves linda. Linda offers such a homely setting and does so much activities with the kids whether it's crafts or even outdoor play at local parks and woodland area. Linda is very caring and shows such care to each individual child. I wouldn't use any other childminder! Linda is my first choice always!
Overall
My daughter has been in Linda’s after school care for four years. She is very comfortable and happy in Linda’s home. It’s a very happy, homely setting and Linda goes out of her way to make sure the kids have lots of things to do whether they are making crafts, playing with toys or spending time at the park and on walks. Linda has always been very accommodating for us and goes out of her way, nothing is too much trouble. We feel very lucky to have Linda and would highly recommend her service to any parent/guardian.

My daughter has been going to Linda’s for just over a year now. I was extremely nervous to begin with however Linda invited us over to introduce herself and show us around her lovely house. My daughter felt extremely comfortable and looks forward to her mornings with Linda. She always goes the extra mile and even puts in the effort to make Mother’s Day cards etc. Which I find absolutely brilliant. My little girl says she always has fun for the short period of time she’s with her. Can’t thank linda enjoy for all she does and she is also very flexible for our needs. Highly recommend her.

Linda has looked after my 5 year old and 3 year old since March this year. They both look forward to going to Linda and miss her heaps when they are off. Although it's been a short while since they started Linda has welcomed them with open arms. The kids are never bored and she goes above and beyond what is expected. I would without a doubt recommend her to any parent /guardian.
