Linda was really wonderful with my kids. She always had a fun day planned for them. Took them out for some sun, had them do painting, clay works and lots of crafts. My kids were absolutely happy with her and so was I

Thank you Dinah for your review, your children are well behaved and very respectful. You and your Husband are very welcome.
Myself and husband have been sending our boys for the past 6 years and have had great experience throughout. It is now time for our youngest to start pre school and Linda will be hugely missed. Linda is great with the children, always taking them to parks/soft plays and different play groups. Excellent childminder. Thank you so much for your years of service.

Thank you for your lovely review, it's been a pleasure to look after your boys and been very nice talking to you and your husband.
We’ve been with Linda for a short while but already within 6 months our daughter (2.5 years old has come along in leaps and bounds, every day we get all of the crafts they’ve been up to, EF can also count to 12 and understand quantity to 5, she’s knows her colours, alphabet and sings her days and brings back her dancing and movements from playing with the other kids. Linda encourages the kids with playing together and brings them out to bigger playgroups to meet other kids. It’s so comforting to know that Linda treats every child as her own. She has been very helpful with listening to my requirements for EF, as she wasn’t finished with her naps Linda helped accommodate this and more recently helping with her potty training. She is thoughtful, kind and not ridged on drop off and pick up times (have experience stricter minders), she also helped with wonderful conversations and advice on EFs learnings at pick up and drop offs. Highly recommend sending your little ones to Linda!

Thank you for your very kind words. your daughter has been a pleasure to look after and see her excel in her learning, it's been a pleasure having parents that work alongside giving your daughter the best.
Linda’s had our little boy for nearly 3 years now, and he has had such a lovely experience! Linda really knows the children she looks after and she has supported with speech, reading, colours and so much more. Our child loves it there and is always so excited to be there since they do so many different activities in such a caring setting. She really takes the time to have conversations about progress, what is going well and the areas where more support would be helpful. We are moving away from the area but are so sad to be leaving and will definitely be staying in touch!

Thank you for your kind words and lovely review. I will miss you all and our chats, I have enjoyed looking after you child.
Linda has been so kind and wonderful with our daughter. Ava was only 10 months old when she started with Linda and I was really nervous about starting childcare but Linda’s kind and caring approach put my mind at rest. Linda provides a warm and loving family home for children and treats them all as though they are her own. Ava has been so happy with Linda and it has allowed me to start back at work knowing that Ava is well taken care of. Linda gives the children a mix of playgroups and fun activities at home so I know that Ava is still getting the social aspect she’d get from a bigger nursery whilst also having the family setting of a childminder. Thank you for everything you’ve done for us Linda!
