Our daughter has been going to Geany’s for just over 2 years and sadly today had her last day due to starting school soon. When our daughter started with Geany, she was shy and not very confident. Geany has such a calm, loving manner and was able to support our daughter so that she felt happy and secure right from the start.
Geany has a wonderful early years setting. She has a dedicated play room which is so well equipped as well as a large outside garden that is set up with varied activities. They regularly sing, dance, listen to stories, discover what’s in the box, paint, play with play dough, do fine motor skills and much more! It is a child’s heaven!
Being a qualified early years teacher myself I know I am picky (!) however Geany really is such a natural with children and in my opinion outstanding. We feel so fortunate that our daughter got to be with Geany and her team and we would 100% recommend her. If you are fortunate enough that a space comes up I would grab it!
Thank you Geany for being such a special part of our daughters first few years.

Our son has been cared for by Geany since he was 2 years old and he’s now 5. He settled there very happily – not wanting to leave after his first hour left there for introductions! He still loves his time with his ‘Geany’ family, including their family dog.
Geany keeps the kids busy with many fun and educational activities, including outdoor playtime whenever possible (both in her well-equipped garden and in local parks), which we have been really pleased about for our outdoor-loving boy. She loves all of the kids and has a wonderful way of engaging with them, while maintaining gentle and firm boundaries.
Geany has happily accommodated dietary requirements for my son, which has been such a help to us. She prepares all her meals from fresh and the children learn to eat a good variety of nutritious food.
We could not have found a better home-from-home for our son, while we are at work.

My children have been looked after by Geany since my son (8) was 4 and my daughter (4) was 9 months old. She is much more than a childminder to us, she is my kids' second mother. Geany absolutely loves all of the children in her care and her love shines through. My children are always very happy to go to Geany's and still always ask to stay a bit longer when I pick them up.
The meals are always freshly prepared, healthy and very tasty, and she caters for a variety of dietary requirements. Geany encourages the children to try new things, and keeps the firm favourites on the regular menu.
During the day the kids are exposed to a variety of different activities, and when possible they go out to parks, farms etc. Geany goes to great lengths to keep the kids engaged and entertained. One of my daughter's favourites is if they have a rainy day during school holidays and they get to have a movie day, complete with popcorn.
I am so grateful to have met Geany when I did, I honestly don't know what I would do without her. I was able to return to work after maternity leave without any worries about my kids' wellbeing. My daughter often gets annoyed with me on my day off work because she doesn't get to go over to Geany's!

Geany has a gift with children. She is amazingly good and is always patient with them. Our daughter went to Geany a couple of mornings a week from 19 months and our son from 7 weeks! They both love her like a second mother and the setting puts them at ease as it is such a warm and comfortable home. Our children are both incredibly clingy in nature and do not settle very easily in a new environment, yet, Geany managed to work her magic and our little boy even begs to stay when we pick him up in the afternoons! Geany genuinely cares and we think that just makes it so much easier to part with your children knowing they are loved and will be well looked after.

Our little boy went to Geany’s setting since he was 13 month old and stayed until he was 4. We can’t thank Geany enough for her love and care for him and the professional yet personal service she provided us! She was amazing in settling him in and was there every step of the way helping us with all of his ‘big’ steps from self feeding to potty training, to his first day at nursery school. She is loving to all the children, genuinely cares about their wellbeing and development. She apllies gentle yet firm
disciplines and all
children under her care are very happy and well behaved. She cooks nutritious meals and plan everyday into fun, structured time
for the children, with lots of outings when the weather is good. We can’t think of any better childminder. Thanks Geany & team xx
