Kim Hilton's Reviews

Couldn't ask for a better childminder

Kim looked after our Son for 2 years while we were at work full time - the only reason we changed his childcare arrangement is because I'm about to have my 2nd and will be on Maternity leave for a year, so want to have some extra time with my little boy. She has been incredible these past two years, we couldn't ask for a better childminder. She's fun, caring, reliable and really treats the children like her own. My little boy still doesn't stop talking about her and told me she was his family the other day - it actually broke my heart when I told him that he wasn't going to be going to her anymore.
Kim filled his days with everything from learning - ABCs / phonics / colours / shapes / drawing & painting / crafts / baking to a range of active activities, softplay / park / walks / stay and plays - he always had something different and interesting to do.
Every event like Halloween, mothers day, Easter etc Kim would make sure all the kids go to an effort to make something for their parents from cards to little keepsakes they would have made - she is always so thoughtful.
Kim would also send daily photos of what our little one had been up to as well as filling in a daily diary of his activities / achievements - this is so nice to receive, when you are working and missing your little one it really makes your day to see what they have been up to. I couldn't recommend Kim enough - we have already asked if she can take our no.2 once I go back to work next year as there is no one else I'd rather have looking after the next one!

Excellent Childminder

Kim is excellent with my two children! I had never used any childcare before Kim and I'm an over protective and full time working mom . Kim put my mind to rest and keep me up to date with notes; messages and photos daily.
My children took to her immediately and never an issue taking them to her as they always looked forward to it!
I can't thank Kim enough for caring for them so well and I'm sad I have to take them out of her care through moving house.
If I move back to the area she would be the first contact I make for childcare.

Fabulous childcare provider

Kim has cared for both my girls and I will never be able to thank her enough for keeping my mind at ease whilst away from them. Being a parent herself and many years of childcare experience under her belt kim provides a safe loving environment for children. Her home has ample space so my girls weren't ever restricted, they have been on many trips with kim and visit playgroups, library's even museums.
Kim provided care for my children from 9months up to 3years both girls loved being with kim and I use to struggle to get them to come home. Even now I have to arrange play dates so they remain in contact with her. Fabulous, professional and caring childminder ?

A No Worry Childminder!

Kim looks after our son 3.5yrs and daughter 2years. The kids love it and we never need to worry when at work. There's plenty of space indoors with a separate toy room and a lovely garden. Kim is very genuine, accommodating, takes them to activities, playgroups, parks and is just fantastic with the kids. When we drop them off they go straight in willingly to play, and at pick up they're happy and have to drag them out. What more does that say!?! Thanks Kim!

Amazing childminder :)

My daughter has been going to Kim since she was 8 months old. She really loves Kim and will miss her when she starts nursery in September :(. I was really nervous about looking for a childminder for my daughter for when I returned to work but when I met Kim I knew that she would be fine. She's very welcoming, helpful and always tries to accommodate. She has such a lovely home with lots of toys, big garden etc. .She takes her out to different places and sends me pictures of my daughter and her friends having fun. Hopefully she'll save a space if I have another. :) x

Wonderful Childminder

Our daughters adore Kim and are treated like one of the family. We cannot recommend her highly enough. If you are looking for a childminder who will provide a warm, loving, safe, supportive home for your children while you're at work, you have to meet Kim!
