Angela has that special instinct to know exactly what children need and what parents wants for them!

She has been childminding my two youngest children (aged 8 and 4) for the past year.

With the children, she is full of fun and creates positivity and laughter in the simplest things. When she needs to, she handles tricky behaviour with tough love, tact and kindness. At the same time, she juggles all the practical aspects of childcare with great professional skill. Somehow in all weathers and all types of tantrums, she radiates calm and happiness, and gets the children actively involved, and outside, if possible!

Her professionalism also comes through in the way she conducts herself with you as a parent. She is super-organised, considerate and highly responsible. She is naturally supportive person, which puts you at ease as a busy parent.

She has had a massive impact on my children feeling secure during their school week, and starting their schoolday on the best possible note. We'll always be thankful!
