Caring and trustworthy, our daughter Loves Andrea!
Andrea has been looking after our daughter since she was 9months old (she is now 4yrs). Andrea was so calm and reassuring from our very first meeting, through settling in sessions, and as well as providing excellent care for our daughter for the last 3 1/2 years, she has also become a friend.
It was hard to find a childcare provider we felt we could trust to care for our daughter, as she has a rare medical condition that increases her care needs. Other childminders we approached were daunted by this, but Andrea responded with calmness, and an eagerness to learn about the condition so she could provide the best care. And she has worked closely with us to support our daughter to manage her increased needs, with confidence. Andrea really has gone above and beyond what we could've hoped for, and we have honestly never had any cause for complaint or worry.
Andrea keeps us updated with WhatsApp messages, throughout the day, and also monitors our daughter's development, and engages her in educational activities that our daughter enjoys. She encourages our daughter's independence, and gives us as parents ideas when we're stuck too!
Our daughter's feedback: "Andrea is nice and good with me. She likes me lots and lots. She takes me to the playground and its nice to see eachother. She says I can do painting, and she likes lots of nice pictures..... and I want to make a picture for Andrea".
