A recent inspection revealed a calm and nurturing environment for children. The setting received a "Good" rating overall, with strengths in family support and children's well-being. Language and physical development are prioritized through targeted activities. Effective safeguarding measures are in place.

Amazing childminder

5 stars

Claire provided the best ever childcare for my son.
He was loved and cared for and came home every day so excited about all the things he had learnt.
There was outdoor play and education daily which he just loved.
I couldn’t recommend Claire more highly.

Two amazing years

5 stars

My twins (boy and girl) started with Claire at 11 months old and left to attend nursery at 3 years old (early April 25) they had the most amazing time with Claire, they learned so much about nature, British sign language, making friends and being confident, kind and inclusive.
They honestly had the best time with Claire and I’m so grateful for the time they spent with her. If you want a childminder who has your child’s best interests at heart and genuinely loves her job then Claire is definitely the one for you! Couldn’t recommend her more!
