Olivia has been a great help to me at this point of my studies. She has been minding my kids over a year now. She has shown a great level of professionalism while discharging her duties. She is specially patient with my son and great with the girls. She is warm and very approachable. The kids enjoy going to her. She keeps them engaged with activities. She has a comfortable and clean home. High recommended for anyone looking for a good minder.

Thanks lv
Olivia has been minding my 2 children for over a year and has proven herself to be very professional and competent.
The children took to her so quickly and she and her family are like family now.
I have known Olivia even before her childminding as a woman of her word and a lover of people socially.
I am very impressed with her services and wont think of taking the kids elsewhere.
She loves and cares for her children like her own having brought up 6 kids of her own.
As a special educational needs teacher myself I am impressed that she also minds children with needs.
For the future I hope she will consider expanding to a nursery to help more families in the area as nursery services in the Charlestown area are limited for working families.

I am a mother of 3 children, two of whom have attended Graceland childcare for one full year. I am very careful of who minds my children and for that reason they have mosst times been minded by myself or my immediate family. I can without hesitation say that Graceland offers a friendly, clean and safe environment for children. The service provided for child care is excep
