We have been fortunate to have Deny, child mind our boys since 2021.I can’t speak highly enough of the level of care and professionalism she provides. From the very first day we felt completely at ease knowing our boys were in such safe and loving hands.
Deny is not only an incredibly skilled childminder but also a warm and caring individual who genuinely goes above and beyond to make our kids feel valued. Her approach is nurturing and gentle,yet she provides structure and consistency in a way that has allowed our boys to thrive. It’s clear she takes pride in her work and is passionate about creating a fun,stimulating and safe environment for all the children under her care. Deny constantly keeps me up to date and always open to discussing any questions or concerns. One of the things that we have appreciated is her flexibility as she is always so accommodating working around our schedule supporting us make things work for our family.
We are so grateful to have found someone as wonderful as Deny and feel incredibly fortunate to have her as part of our boys lives. She’s made such a positive impact on our family and we recommend her with the highest regard to any parents looking for a trustworthy,caring and professional childminder.

We are so grateful to have found Deny to care for our twin boys. She is absolutely wonderful! She’s incredibly warm and caring, and it’s clear that she has a genuine love for children. Our boys always look forward to spending time with her, and it’s such a comfort to know they are in such good hands.
She’s also very organized and always has a plan for the day. Every day, our boys come home with something new they’ve learned or a fun activity they’ve done—whether it's arts and crafts, outdoor play, or educational games. It’s so reassuring to see them so happy and engaged.
I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to any parent looking for a childminder. She’s made such a positive impact on our children, and we are truly grateful for everything she does!

My daughter started with Deny when she was 13 months old and she was with Deny for 9months in total. I think in all that time only in few little occasions they stayed at home due to very bad weather. Deny is very active and is always taking the kids out and about: to the library, to local play groups, play dates, for walks, to the forest club. And Deny keeps you informed regularly with photos and messages. My little one loved her but also loved spending time with her kids and the dogs. The dogs are very well trained and are indeed gentle with the kids.

Deny is my daughter's childminder since she is 6 months (full time). I can tell that when we arrive at Deny's door my daughter is super excited and always coms back home with a smile on her face. Deny is fantastic with children and one can really see that she does her job with passion. We appreciate that she does several activities (indoor and outdoor) with them every day, helping them grow through experiences. She has two beautiful, quiet and friendly dogs who are super well trained with children. Deny is always ready to help and pays maximal attention to my daughter's needs. I am always informed about the the daily activities, feeds, naps and I receive beautiful pictures everyday. We have the feeling that our daughter is very well integrated in Deny's family and with the other children she supervises. Deny's beautiful work is reflected in our daughter, who is learning a lot with her and the other children.

Deny looked after my 1year old son and she was nothing short of amazing. She would take him to different activities and made his day all exciting. Very good communication from her too and we were very happy - Thank you Deny ! I highly recommend her for anyone who is considering.

Dany is a lovely childminder that has been great towards my child and my self , she’s been super helpful and did everything to ensure I as the parent and my child was happy.
My daughter always looks forward to going to her childminder, she’s also been great in helping my daughter archive her goals , I’ve been able to see an improvement in her speech and confidence within the first month.
I recommend her to anyone that wants a caring childminder who will look after your child and update you if needed about any concerns or just to update you on their day.
I hope to come back to Dany in future with the next baby 😊

Deny was a lifesaver for us and cant recommend her enough.
After being let down by our nursery at the last minute Deny responded to our message instantly and was able to look after our Daughter at short notice.
She entertained our daughter throughout the week and sent regular photos and updates daily which we loved.
We can thank Deny enough for her help and our daughter will definitely miss her, her family and her dog!

Deny filled our son's half term days with so many fun activities and places to visit that he didn't want to come home! She is a caring and conscientious professional who makes me feel 100% confident when my son is in her care. I can't recommend her enough.

Deny is such a lovely person and great childminder.
The settling period was very smooth and My 7 years old daughter and 4 years old son accommodated so well.
Both of them are always looking forward going to her house every day, and there were times when they did not want to leave her to come back home :).
They do plenty of creative and playful activities, and they really enjoys been with her lovely and confident children .
They also play a lot in her friendly garden and always have fun activities
As i am a very busy mum to have Deny is just so much reassuring and i highly recommend her as a childminder because of her natural generosity and kindness

My daughters love Deny and her family! They always look forward to going there and always come back with happy smiles. Deny knows how much I miss the girls when I don't see them and sends me photos of what the girls have been up to. Deny is a bubbly, kind and considerate person and I would highly recommend her to anybody looking for a childminder where you know your child will be well cared for.

This lady was babysitting my daughter. For almost 5 hours she didn't feed or give any drink to my child. When I came to pick up little one she was sleeping on the floor like a dog! I woke her up changed her nappy and fed. Left 4 nappies with this ,,babysitter,, and plenty of food and drink, nothing was used everything came back to me in the same portions and as much nappies as I left. She did borrow me umbrella and then was calling me and txting 10 times a day to bring that back even when I told her my child is ill and it is impossible to me to go out but she couldnt understand that or wait for few days. What if I go for holiday and wouldn't be able to give umbrella back for at least 2 weeks or if I'm in hospital??!!! In the end of the story I took my Ill child outside and gave the most important umbrella In the whole world back. When she came to pick it up she said I'm very rude because I didn't txt her back in time. Very unprofessional I wouldn't recommend to anybody. If you want to see your baby sleeping on the floor you know who you need to contact. Maybe no experience or just attitude

I am so sorry you had a need to write this feedback Alex.. When you were back, when we were dropping you back to town centre (where you asked me to drop you off) you were saying how happy you were with my care. You asked me if I could care full time for your daughter when you go back to work in January. I fed your daughter, I gave her her drink. She was changed as soon as she woke up. She had her formula milk also, that's when I forgot to put it back in the bag you provided and returned it today. And all this is in our messages. I called you only once and sent you a message when we arranged to meet, but had no reply, so I tried next day again. I have sent you pictures of your daughter playing and being happy and sleeping as well. Obviously you have a problem with me but it has nothing to do with childcare. The umbrella is very important to me as its the last present what I have from my mum before she passed away, which you knew. I did ask you to leave it outside in front of your house but you wanted to meet on your street. There was no need to make story like this up specially when I have all our conversation still saved in my phone. I wish you all the best
