Returning to work and leaving my 1 year old son with somebody was the hardest thing I've had to do, Cassie made this transition so much easier by being such an amazing childminder. I felt as if I was leaving my son with a member of my family. She sent me photos of the activities he was doing that day so I didn't feel like I was missing out.
Most importantly he thrived in her environment, demonstrating educational, physical & social growth in the time that he spent there. Always open to discuss worries or behaviour technique, sleep training etc and work together as a team on the method chosen.
Flexibility of working hours are an amazing plus as 24 hour care is available, if you work unsociable hours or even want a dinner out for a special occasion (such a treat going to a proper restaurant!)
We often bump into Cassie on the activity circuit and my son always runs to he to say hello and give her a cuddle this demonstrates how happy he was in her care.
The one thing that really separates Cassie from the other childminders is that she doesn't just mind your child she interacts with them. I wouldn't want to leave my child with anyone else.
