Good
20 March 2025
A nurturing and stimulating environment awaits children at this childcare setting. The thoughtfully designed space promotes learning and independence through a structured curriculum incorporating nature-based experiences. Children enjoy outdoor activities in a spacious garden, developing physical and social skills. Progress is tracked using an online system, ensuring consistent learning. While the overall effectiveness is good, there's room for improvement in engaging children with meaningful questions to enhance language skills and problem-solving abilities.

Exceptional Childminder

5 stars

We are delighted with the childminding service provided by Barbara. She is extremely professional and provides a safe and stimulating environment for children to play (her garden is fantastic)! She takes the children on trips out and my son has always come home happy and tired from a fun day of playing.

Barbara has been taking care of my son for over a year. She is a very nice, kind, creative and resourceful person. The children gain many different skills from her, they learn through play. My son loves going to her.
