Ellaine has looked after our little boy since he was 9 months old (he's almost two now) and we couldn't be happier to have her as our childminder. She provides a home from home environment, her house is always clean, tidy and welcoming, with a lovely family atmosphere. There is a fantastic garden out the back that is specially kitted our for the children and I sometimes have to drag our boy out of the garden at the end of the day as he has so much fun there. Ellaine takes them out most days to playgroups, Victoria park, the Museum of Childhood and to the Library. I always feel confident leaving my son in the mornings as I know that he will be cared for in a loving and supportive environment which is evident by the happy boy that I return to at the end of the day. She also offers overnight care which is fantastic for us having limited family in the city and knowing that he is in a familiar environment and with someone that he trusts. We really feel that our son has thrived in her care and we couldn't recommend her enough.
