My Summary
About Me
My name is Maureen Hollington I am an Ofsted registered childminder graded outstanding. I work alongside my husband who is also registered with Ofsted.
We are changing the way we work and will no longer be doing regular childminding during the day. We will however be offering more flexible ad hoc childcare between the hours of 8am and 3pm (may be able to do longer hours, dependant on day of week), so if you need temporary care to cover any appointments, interviews, or personal stuff please get in touch.
We are also offering before and after school care for children attending Templewood School. Please get in touch if your child will be attending Templewood School and you would like to use our services. We have been offering this service for many years and most of the children stay with us throughout their years at Templewood.

Maureen has helped me twice when I needed a much needed break from parenting :P
I've got 2 girls aged 8 and 4, and my younger one was very skeptical at first when we mentioned having a babysitter for a few hours. Maureen arrived and it took her probably 2 mins to break the ice with both my kids. She is very friendly, responsible and punctual. Having her own car means I could also rely on her to take my kids to extra curricular activities.

Our daughter Ella has been with Maureen and Guy since turning two. She settled immediately and cannot wait to go every morning.
Maureen and Guy provide excellent opportunities through exciting and varied trips and activities which, combined with their caring and nurturing manner has meant that Ella has blossomed.
Ella's speech and language has come on leaps and bounds and she also benefits hugely from the social interactions with the other children in their care. She is constantly learning because of the stimulating environment.
I cannot speak highly enough of Maureen and Guy. They go above and beyond their job roles and I feel that Ella's happiness and wellbeing is always their priority.

Our daughter has been with Maureen and Guy for almost 4 years (since 10 months of age). She loves them so much that she feels like she has found new grandparents as her ones live abroad.
Our daughter loves the activities offered from the indoor/outdoor plays up to visits to Willows Farm, different soft plays areas and children activity centres.
Although our daughter is visiting a private nursery school twice a week for over a year we still are having an issue in the morning as she wants to go to Maureen's.
We highly recommend Maureen and Guy. They are approachable and easy to talk to.They also set firm rules with kids that we appreciate.
Regards,
Pavlina&Martin
