Angie and Neil (not forgetting the gorgeous dogs) have not only been beyond wonderful but also life savers. We returned from Switzerland and needed childcare asap to aid working in a hospital during the covid pandemic. They couldn't have been anymore accomdatating and flexible to arrange a place for my 18month old son. Even though I was a high risk worker, they knew how important it was for me to work and fully accepted that and the risks it came with it. When so many other childminders closed during covid, they kept their doors open, being flexible, thus allowing myself to work.

As soon as my boy started, they put me at total ease, that he would be fine, and he was. They are the warmest people and from day 1 my little boy loved going there often asking to go back when I picked him up. I never have worried about him for one minute whlist he has been in their care.

Angie and Neil have brought him on leaps and bounds, improving his communication, social skills, and the best thing is that they have embrassed his energy and wildness and let it flourish.

On many occasions Angie and Neil have bent over backwards to help us, being flexible whenever they possibly can.

Louis would come home so happy after days baking, playing in the garden, playing in the water on hot days, painting, singing, reading and
eating delicious home cooked meals (and the odd biscuit from Neil 😉). It always felt they were going above and beyond to make children happy and thrive and make it fun.

We leave Angie and Neil with a heavy heart, but the Yorkshire hills are calling us now! All we hope is that we manage to stay in contact. We feel the luckiest people to have met you both and have you care for out little wild boy for the last 18 months.
