Lorraine is a friendly and warm childminder who was excellent with my now 20 month old daughter. We started with her when I went back to work, when my daughter was 10 months old, and we were so impressed with Lorraine's attitude and professionalism.

She has two lovely children of her own who have been wonderful with my daughter. She has a very nice, clean setting with plenty of toys and activities to entertain and educate, no matter what the weather. She also took the little ones out for regular playgroups etc. My daughter took her first steps after a day at her setting!

We have sadly moved out of the area, which is the only reason we're leaving. We'll really miss Lorraine and would not hesitate to recommend her services.
