My daughter who is now 2 years and 4 months old has been looked after by Dorothy for about 18 months now. She is a very happy, secure and well settled child who is really treated as a member of Dorothy's family. She even refers to Dorothy's mum-in-law as grandma and it is always a task to get her to leave Dorothy's house in the evening as she is busy playing. Dorothy is a very loving, nurturing and extremely flexible childminder. She has the ability to recognise the child's potential and really nurture them on. As a parent, I will forever be indebted to her as the knowledge that my child is happy and loved allows me to go to work without excessive worry.

She is very flexible and generous with her time has helped us out on weekends and even night shifts sometimes. My husband and I are both hospital doctors working shifts and having someone like Dorothy has been a real blessing. I cannot recommend her services highly enough.

Dorothy's daughter Sam, who works as her assistant, has also made a huge difference to the place. They work well as a team and Sam has helped us out several times when we needed a babysitter.

All in all, they offer an amazing service and I would highly recommend visiting them. Their love for the job and the kids is instantly obvious and at the end of the day as a parent, all you want is for your child to be loved and nurtured by someone when you are off to work.
