Curiosity and exploration are at the heart of this childminder's educational approach. An innovative outdoor learning environment, including a canopy and cosy cabin, forms the foundation for an ambitious curriculum. Children benefit from regular outings to woods, parks, and lakes, enhancing their understanding of the world. A wide range of natural resources and real-life objects inspire further exploration. While promoting healthy lifestyles and maintaining good communication with parents, there is room for improvement in children's concentration during activities.

Calm and caring!

5 stars

My son started with Louise recently after the childminder he had been with for 3 years moved away.
She's been so calm and reassuring providing a smooth transition for him (and us as parents!)
So far he has done so much: trips to Willows, different playgrounds, the allotment. Plus loads of opportunities for imaginative and creative play. I've seen him absolutely blossom with new skills and confidence in things he hadn't done before.

It's clear that the children are the absolute centre of what Louise does. Couldn't be happier!

One of the best decisions we made

5 stars

Louise has truly been one of the best things to happen to our family. We first sent our son to her when he was just 13 months old—he’s now 4.5 years and still happily with her. Over the years, he’s picked up so many good habits under her care. He was even potty trained at her place.

Louise is incredibly active with the kids. She takes them on regular outings—to the zoo, parks, petting farms, and even little children’s discos. In the summer, she brings them to her allotment, where they get to experience planting and spending time in nature.

Even though our son now attends nursery, he still spends his afternoons with Louise—and he genuinely prefers being with her. The bond he and the other children have with her says so much about the warmth, care, and attention she gives them every day.
