Laura does a great job, she is always doing little trips and activities for the children. Our toddler always enjoyed going to hers. Accomodates the toddlers/childs schedule the parents have worked towards. Would strongly recommend without hesitation her fantastic services. Thank you Laura!

The best childminder I've had for my little girl! My daughter warmed to her straight away and so did I. From now on I hope I don't have to go to anybody else but laura.

I've been with Laura for over a year now and it has been great. My daughter loves Laura and I trust her with my daughter life and more. I couldn't have found a better child minder for her and I'm so grateful that she taken to Laura from the beginning. As this was my first time leaving her in childcare. She is such a great person with excellent skills. She has a lovely family and a cute dog. And her house is always nice and tidy and warm.. I highly recommend her.
