Reviews
Below are the latest reviews for CORINNA. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk. Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Corinna has looked after my 2 children for the past 3 years, during this time herself and her husband Kevin have become like family to my children, she has treated them with care and love and my children have enjoyed every second of their time with them.
Corinna takes the children out most days, they have been to various farms and museums and my children have experienced many an enjoyable trip to a play centre or park. On the days they stay at home they do different activities and always have some wonderful art work to bring home.
The food given to my children is varied and always nutritional and fruit is given at snack time.
I would recommend Corinna to any parent, she is one of the most loving people I know, myself and my children will miss her and Kevin a lot, if we were not moving to another area my children would be staying in her care xxx

Thankyou for your lovely review. it has been an absolute pleasure minding your two beautiful children. They have grown into such lovely children. They will be missed so much in our setting by me, Kevin ,Jack, family and their little friends. Goodluck in your new home.
Miss you all,
Love Corinna, Kevin, and Jack.
AS CHILDMINDER TO MY 2,8 OLD DOUGHTER, FOR LAST TWO YEARS, CORINNA HAS PROVEN TO BE HIGHLY RELIABLE AND REMARKEBLY RESPONSIBLE.
I WAS AMAZED HOW QUICKLY MY HANNAH ADAPTED TO NEW ENVIROMENT AND HOW CHEERFUL SHE WAS WHEN SHE WERE GOING TO CORINNA. HANNAH WAS VERY WELL LOOKED AFTER AND DEVELOPED MANY SKILLS DURING THAT PERIOD.
I AM CONFIDENT TO RECOMMEND CORINNA TO ANY PARENTS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR EXPERIENCED AND TRUSTHWORTHY CHILDMINDER.

Agnus and Fabian. Thankyou so much for the lovely review you have given me.We have watched Hannah grow and achieve so much while she has been in our care. Hannah has gained confidence, and she loves to spend time at play centres parks etc. (the little dolly and pink monkey at round the twist are going to miss Hannah very much). Hannah also plays happily with her little friends. Hannah is delightful, funny, and such a little angel. Hannah is a little princess and we are going to miss her so much. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi Dalila, Rui and Thiago. Thankyou so much for the kind words. It was a pleasure taking care of Thiago he is so lovley and a joy to look after. We miss you all so much too. xxx
Corinna is very welcoming and she made my son feel like home as soon as we entered the house. She is fantasic with the children, and very creatve. Everyday they do something different e.g going to the Play centre or to the park. Also, she provides my son with nutricious meals and variety of fruits and vegetables everyday. Corinna treats Szymon as if he was her own son and me and my husband fully trust her with our son. Very positive person and always willing to help. We would definitively recommend her services :) Also we would like to thank you for the services provided so far :)

Monika and Radek thankyou so much for the beautiful comments. Its a pleasure having Szymon in our home he's so full of fun. Szymon enjoys all his activities ie parks, play centres and museums etc and he isnt frightened of trying anything new. Szymon enjoys his time in the football area he makes us laugh as he kicks the football around, and zooms around the play centres, inflatable slides etc. He's such a lovely little boy full of energy, happiness and a pleasure to look after. xxxx
Corinna has been the childminder for my three children for the past eigtheen months. I had initially been wary of using this type of service as I had not left my children with a childminder before and wasn't sure what to expect or how they would settle. However, I need not have worried. My children settled in straight away and were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. They really enjoy the time they spend with Corinna and Kevin and look forward to it, whether it's doing activities indoors, outdoors or taking trips out. They are always active and have something to do to keep them engaged. The children are always coming home with stories about what they've been doing, where they've been, what they've learnt or things they have made whilst being in the care of Corinna. They are all very happy and Corinna and Kevin are now consistent and reliable figures in their lives. I have only positive things to say about Corinna. She treats my children as if they were her own and I trust her and her judgements completely. She is an approachable, dependable, caring and happy person who has had a positive impact on my children. I would definitely recommend her services :)
