My Summary
About Me
My name is Fiona and I live with my Family in a quiet street with no parking restrictions, and it's an eight minute walk to the train station. I have a large patio area and a large garden which includes a trampoline, slide, triple swing, climbing frame and lots of other outdoor toys. I do lots of making, baking, painting, music, story time, going to playgroups & the park, arts & crafts and much more with the children. I enjoy my job very much, and for me knowing that the children are happy makes me happy.
I also cook fresh meals on a daily basis for the children.
I have tropical fish which the children seem to love watching them swimming around in the tank.

I found Fiona through this website in 2021. I was looking for a local childminder for my daughter who started with Fiona when she was eight months old. Fiona and Vince have been saviours at such a challenging time- my daughter considers them both to be family and I couldn't recommend them more highly. Fiona goes out of her way to communicate with parents, keep them updated and discuss in depth any worries or concerns. She is highly experienced and knowledgeable, always available and I don't know what I'd do without her.

We were recommended Fiona by the nursery we were sending our 3 year old girl to and are so happy we found Fiona! Both my 3 year old and 2 year old girls were looked after by Fiona and her assistant and husband Vince who has a great way with children and both the girls warmed so quickly to Vince too. The girls loved going to Fiona's house from the very beginning. It is obvious that Fiona has a special love for children and the nurturing, loving way she cares for children shines. From home cooked food to doing arts and crafts and being taken on day trips, my girls were lucky to have them as their child care providers. We would get regular updates throughout the day about the girls which was lovely and a wonderful journal of their development. I have recommended Fiona to others and will carry on doing so. Special memories made with her and her lovely family.

Both my son and daughter have spent time with Fiona over the past 1.5 years. She provides a warm and welcoming environment, with great activities to suit every age and ability. My children love spending time with her - leaving happily and returning smiling each time. Fiona has helped me with potty and sleep training support, nothing has ever been too much trouble. She is very caring and attentive, providing good healthy meals and regular reports of their progress. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Fiona has looked after my son for 2 years and I cannot recommend her enough. Since leaving him with Fiona at 10 months old to go back to work I have felt so comfortable and happy with his care. He has absolutely loved every day with Fiona, her time and patience with the children is brilliant, they warm to her so much and her home is so welcoming. My son has never once not wanted to go and each day he leaves happy and well fed. They regularly do different activities and when the times have permitted they visit the local farms, parks and more. Thank you Fiona for being wonderful xx

Fiona had my little boy for over two years and I can honestly say she was amazing with him, he loved going to Fiona he was very happy there and I was very happy with everything, I had never used a childminder before but Fiona was so good with him it made it easier to leave him
Could recommend her enough x
