Helen is an excellent childminder she has been looking after my two boys (5 & 3yo) for over a year and I cannot fault her.

Paperwork and safety is well kept up to date. Pick ups and drop offs are easy, efficient and well organised. Communication is detailed and well in advance if there are any changes.

Helen’s home is a safe haven, the children all eat together and there is a lovely garden (enclosed with gate) and outdoor play area with bikes, slides, ball pit etc all connected to the house and fenced off.

Helen’s children are excellent with the mindee’s and the boys have made some brilliant friends. We supply our own food.

Thanks for all you do Helen.

Thank you. It is an absolute privilege. X

I had both my children with Helen. My daughter who was eleven and my son up until he was 2 1/2 for a couple of years. My experience and my children's experience with Helen has been excellent. She provides a safe, happy, fun environment for the children and is very professional. Also on the ball with all things childcare related to make sure she is up to date and following all procedures which gives you peace of mind knowing your child is in more than capable hands. Highly recommend!

Helen is great and there’s never too much to ask her. Our son Greyson loves to see her and she is so kind and caring.

Highly recommend Helen.
