MichelleCochrane's Reviews

Great childminder

I have been extremely happy with the care Leroy has received, and the great progress he has made whilst in Michelles care. Michelles home is always welcoming and well organized and Leroy has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care. She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise. I know Leroy has recently enjoyed sand and water play, drawing and sticking as well as outings to the park.Michelle completes a diary detailing what Leroy has done each day. From this I have a complete picture of his whole day including what he has eaten, how long he has slept and all his activities. This helps me to feel involved with his care. All in all I am thoroughly happy with the level of care Leroy receives and I’m certain that being in such a positive and happy environment is helping him develop into a confident and self assured little boy.

Great childminder

My child has been with Michelle since January this year when i had to return to work from maternity leave. I found Michelle through a friend and im glad i did. Charlie has no problems being left with Michelle when i drop him off and always comes back with something, a craft or a painting. Michelle is always taking the children to a toddler group or has something planned at home so Charlie never gets bored. As he is just starting to talk Michelle has flash cards that she goes through with Charlie to help him learn new words which is great. I feel very happy with the way things are and know that Charlie loves going as he knows he gets to have fun all day. I would recommend Michelle to anyone of my friends if they were looking for a reliable and trustworthy child-minder.

Thanks lisa for your lovely review, Charlie is a loving and very happy little boy and a pleasure to mind.

Fantastic Childminder

Michelle often looks after my 10 year old daughter who can be a challenge to entertain at the best of times!!! She always looks forward to going to Michelle’s after school and during the holidays as she always has an activity organised, some entertainment for them all, or even just to chill out with each other in a friendly environment.

I would not hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone is who is truly looking for a caring, committed, approachable and professional person to mind their children.

Thanks sue lydia is truely welcome anytime.

Excellent Childminder

Michelle has been my 6 year old daughter’s childminder for 5 years, and from the very beginning Michelle instilled in me confidence and trust that I did not receive from the other childminders that I interviewed. Michelle provides a warm, safe and stimulating environment for Carla, and a wealth of activities that I know have had a direct impact on her early years development, namely painting, drawing, sticking, making things, jigsaws, dressing up etc. In the summer months Carla enjoys playing in Michelle’s garden on the trampoline, and paddling in the pool. Michelle also takes the children to events in the nearby park. Michelle is a fantastic childminder and I recommend her highly.

Excellent Childminder

My child has been with Michelle since the age of 2 and has always been very happy with her, even to the point that he is disappointed when I come to collect him!!

Michelle always has a wide range of activities planned, toysto play with and caters for all ages to interact together and really be included in all that goes on. A great childminder that always ensures that the children are happy, engaged and are comfortable in her home and care.

A Great Childminder

My little girl Libby has been with Michelle since 2009 when I had to return to work. I was really anxious about leaving Libby with anyone but Michelle made it easy for me and Libby by using a phased in approach. Libby loves going to Michelles as she does so much with her. They go to playgroups, centres, farms, they do lots of activities like painting, arts and crafts and Libby is now learning to write her name! Libby is starting nursey in Sept 2011 but we will continue to use Michelle. I would reommend Michelle to anyone.
