Karen has provided continuous care for us since my son was 4 months and we would never consider anyone else having experienced such warm and welcoming care for the past 4 years.

We very much value the contribution she's made to my son's development in his early years, the activities she does with the children are age appropriate, engaging and enjoyable. We always get artwork, photos, homework from his time spent with 'Nana'.

He enjoys the setting, the other children, the food and the activities he does while at Karen's. She is definitely an extension of our family and we're grateful to have her support and guiding hand in my son's development.

I would recommend Karen to anyone looking for a reliable, supportive and professional childminder.

Karen has been my children’s childminder for few years. My children are now 3 and 5 years old. If I say she is the best childminder I have worked with, it wouldn’t do her justice. All teachers at my children’s school constantly vouche for her and say she is the best they ever dealt with and they would send their children to Karen if they had any.

Karen is simply amazing with the kids, she’s flexible, knows how to adapt her style to meet the kids needs and to ensure they understand her. It is also worth mentioning that the kids love her cooking! Especially her pasta, and rice and chicken:)

Karen is so responsive and engages with me whenever I need to discuss the kids, ans she makes time for that.

Karen goes over and beyond her duties and she does it with an amazing smile on her face.

The children love her and they love her daughter and grand children. I say it with pleasure that I consider Karen to be family.

I highly recommend her, she is just simply the best on all levels.

My now 3 year old daughter has been coming to Karen for the last 2 years. She loves it there, learns a lot and has a lot of fun. I like the activities that they do. My daughter soon will go to pre-school, but will always look back on a very enjoyable time for both my daughter and for me. in addition to the great childcare provided, Karen's communication is good, she is very organised and has helped me out a few times outside of care hours. Overall very good.

Karen has been minding my little boy since he was six months old. She has always been very caring towards my son and is a very understanding and flexible. My son always seems happy when we get to the house and excited to see her. I have been very happy with her as a minder.

Karen has continued to provide excellent care to my child whom she has watched from the age of 4 months.

He loves being there, enjoys his play time and has learned many of the early learning skills to set him up for nursery. He's counting and singing nursery rhymes with confidence and has developed confidence around any group of children and I largely attribute that to Karen's approach to interaction both with the children and their parents.

I'm purposely dragging my feet to keep him with her as long as possible, I value her efforts so much. I continue to rate Little Angels and would recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and understanding childminder.
