Excellent Childminder

5 stars

Excellent childminders are hard to find. Patty and her assistant Ola are passionate about looking after children. They pay attention to detail, empathetic and make delicious, nutritious meals. My daughter aIways looks for to going to Pattys everyday😊.

I am at peace when my daughter is at Patty's setting, with regular updates during the day, you know that your child is safe and in good hands. As a student my hours vary and Patty is very accommodative and flexible.
Patty thank you for the excellent service you provide. We love you xx

My daughter loves her time with Patty

5 stars

My little girl loves going to Patty. She's always coming back with stories to tell about their lovely and active day. The setting is very friendly, there are loads of activities that help her develop in a nice rounded way. Kids spent quite some time outside in the garden playing organised and free in nature. All of the children are happy and fulfilled at the end of the day on pickup.
Patty sends updates on the children's day throughout the day so we know what they have enjoyed. She is also a good communicator, trying alway to find a solution to a problem. She has always respected my asks re my daughter, from cloth nappies to dummy to nap times.
All in all, I'm very happy

Princess Holly aka patty

5 stars

My daughter use to attend pattys childcare and she loves every moment of it. Even now at 6 years of ages she still asks to go back in holidays. Patty is very friendly and great with kids. She cooks nice nutritional food and has lots of activities for the kids to engage in daily. She also has an assistant Ola who is also fab with the children she is very creative and loves to bake cakes with the children. The children have the opportunity to go on trips and outdoor activities such as parks and museums just to mention a few. I have no negative comments about this childcare provider pretty much one of the best from my past experience. Patty is a easy to get hold of via wats app and she updates you daily with images of what your child has been up to.

Amazing nursery

5 stars

My two grandchildren are looked after by patty and her assistant ola they are amazing and very accommodating my eldest grandchild was struggling to settle in at a nursery and I couldnt bear him being distressed all the time so I found patty on childcare.co.uk and it was the best thing ever she and ola have settled him in lovely it was a shaky start but they were so loving and reassuring that he settled in after a few weeks he has been going here since the age of just over 2 years he will be 5 this year and unfortunately will be leaving to go reception but his little sister will stay until she reaches that age to they have both developed excellent confidence skills nappy training was a quick progress with the support they enjoy the home cooked meals never ever come home hungry and they always want to talk about their activities of that day it's always something different I wouldn't wish for a better nursery as this one meets all my needs just one word explains it and that's AMAZING

Fantastic wholesome childcare

5 stars

My daughter attends Patty’s home childcare during school holidays. She really enjoys herself, with a variety of daily activities such as art, cooking, baking, building, creative work, trips to the park. She keeps in communication with us through the day to give us comfort knowing how out little ones are. Would defiantly recommend. Thank you very much for taking good care of Her (:

The best Childminder EVER!!

5 stars

When I decided to go back to work, my little one went through 2 childminders and a nursery and was not happy and felt slightly scared and then along came Patty, she was like a god sent!

She looked after my son for 2 and half years and he loved every minute of it, he is now due to start school in September so sadly leaving Patty! you can see the love and dedication she has for what she does and for the kids under her care. She goes the extra mile constantly to ensure the kids are happy and well looked after.

She prepares lovely homemade meals and snacks for the kids, plans a day full of activities to nurture their learning and growth. We have been extremely lucky to come across Patty, she gives that peace of mind a working mother needs when leaving their child with someone else. I am extremely grateful for everything she has done for my little one and we will miss her loads!

Fantastic care

5 stars

Patty cares for my 7months old baby and he is now 13 months, Patty is very caring, patience, understanding, she treats the children individually but equally. She is very passionate about the children and pays attention to every child needs. she would send pictures which reassures me a lot because my baby can cry for England. I would recommend her to everyone, I wouldn’t swap Patty for 20 childminders put together. Thank you so much
