My little boy has been going to Laura’s since he was 9 months old and he is now 2. He has absolutely loved his time with Laura and is always excited to go and comes home with a smile on his face. Laura does lots of different activities with him and has massively helped him develop and learn new things. Laura has always been very flexible and able to have him extra days if I’ve needed her to. He really is going to miss her!

I found Laura on Childcare.co.uk when looking for a one-off babysitter for our holiday in Devon. Laura we easy to get in touch with. She was responsive and friendly.
We were really impressed with how she was with our twin 3 y/o toddlers who can be shy around new people. Fantastic value for money and it allowed us to have a bit of holiday time for ourselves with the knowledge that our children were safe and happy.

Our little girl has been with Laura for just over 2 years, and what a great 2 years they have been... endless trips to the park, going to see the farm animals, arts and craft days and pool days when the suns shining! Emelia has developmental delay that affects her mobility, every task is that bit harder for her especially walking. Laura was amazing always included her so she didn't feel left out, took the time to understand her and her needs. We've watched Emelia grow into the most amazing confident little girl and part of that is because of the kind caring nurturing role Laura has played as her childminder in her life so far. We are going to miss you

Aww, thankyou so much. I have loved every minute and I will miss her loads!
We used Laura to look after our 3 year old for a one off day whilst in holiday in Devon. She was great - flexible, communicative and generally helpful. My son had a lovely day with her and the other children. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again. Many thanks!

Thankyou for the review 😊 please don't hesitate to contact me again if you're in the area, Many thanks!
My son has been with Laura for 2 years since he was 8 months old after returning to work full-time. He was regularly taken to toddler group, fun and educational outings as well as many home activities. Laura kept a diary of activities and milestones reached which was wonderful to see. Always in communication when needed. Not once did my son ever not want to go to Laura’s, he loved it. Reason for change, sadly, due to relocation.

Laura was childminder for approximately 1 year to my little boy of 4 Years old. He was very happy and played very well with both of Laura's two Children. He was often taken to Tumble Tots or other outdoor playgrounds. He made excellent progress with his communication and other key early learing skills. It was only due to him starting school that I had to change childminder. I would highly recommend Laura to anybody. Barry.
