Mandy is a natural with children, she is a genuine person, very kind and caring. Mandy has been childminding my two children aged 4 and 3 since March 2008, and in this time she has developed a relationship that exceeds her job, Mandy is much more than just their childminder, she is an extension to our family, my children adore her, they also have a wonderful relationship with Mandy’s two beautiful daughters, her husband and mother who is like a nannie to them, all the children call her nannie Pam.
Mandy is very aware about children’s developmental needs both physically and emotionally. At Mandy’s home the children have plenty of space and time to play, both indoors and outdoors. Mandy has a variety of resources and equipment for indoor play; building dens, dressing up, dancing, craft activity etc. And for outdoor play Mandy has a trampoline, a play house, water and play activities which the children thoroughly enjoy. Mandy takes the children on a variety of outings they have been fishing, to the beach, the woods, garden centres, supermarket’s, museum, picnics, Tredegar house, parks, and just recently the children went to Castle Coch. On special occasions such as Christmas, Halloween, and Easter Mandy decorates her home, and has craft activities making cards, cakes, Easter egg hunt etc, which all the children enjoy.
I would highly recommend Mandy to anyone who is looking for childminder as I know when I leave my children with her they are safe, loved and well cared for, in a happy, relaxed environment.
