Diane looked after our first child flawlessly and is currently looking after our second. When our daughter joined the family we had no doubts regarding who we wanted as our childminder. Diane is patient, kind, and provides a loving environment for our children. One of Diane’s key attributes would be how well she communicates. We receive an end of day summary via Whatsapp which includes not only basic information, but also lovely photographs and a summary of what our little one has been up to. This helps put into context what my 3 year old communicates to me about the day and allows me to feel connected despite having to work.

Throughout the pandemic Diane has kept up to date with all recommendations regarding keeping us and our children safe. She regularly updates her policies and practices ensuring that the children are able to socialize and play in a safe environment. We could not recommend Diane enough. Diane has always proven knowledgeable about child care in general and has always been receptive to our parenting philosophies, i.e. reusable nappies, extended rear facing, breastfeeding etc. As parents we would both highly rate and recommend Diane’s childminding services. However, even more important than our opinion is that of our children. Even my eldest who no longer attends Diane’s still raves about her. My youngest thoroughly enjoys going, and this to us, serves as the strongest evidence of how well nurtured they are with Diane. We are confident that you will love her just as much as we do!
