Deborah Marsh's Reviews

Loving, fun, home, perfect childminder.

When i went back to work we had put our then 14m old son into a local nursery. He cried everyday for 3wks. We decided to pull him out. We live around the corner from Debbie and I had seen her around locally with children so did a bit of investigative work and got in touch. We instantly warmed to Debbie and from day one our son settled well into her care and did not cry at all, a huge relief. Debbie regularly sends pictures to keep us updated as to what they are doing throughout the day. She goes out with the children several times a week and if they don't go out they play in the garden or do lots of different educational and fun activities at home. She cooks a good variety of tasty looking food snd provides healthy snacks. Our son is always clean and well cared for and he always sleeps well. Debbie creates a warm, loving, fun environment and we 100% trust her to look after our son as we know he has a great time with her.

After I had picked our son up once he tripped just outside our building and cut his head open, my husband was on his way back from work so I ran back to Debbie's house and she calmly helped me whilst I waited for 10 minutes for my husband to get home and drive us to the hospital. So you can also rely on Debbie in an emergency!

We are absolutely gutted that we have to move but feel so lucky for the time our son has had with Debbie as we couldn't have asked for a better person to care for him and put our mind at ease. Thank you so much Debbie. We will miss you ALOT! X

Debbie is creative, energetic, and truly enjoys wh

My 2yo has been with Debbie for a year and I feel as if I have hit the jackpot! It's evident how much she cares for my daughter and I feel completely secure in the fact that she is meeting all of her needs while providing her with a loving and safe environment. She selects and prepares healthy, yummy meals and provides us with meal plans for the week. I love that she is always on the look out for new toys and activities for the little ones, always keeping them busy. My daughter adores Debbie (so do we) and because of this, we view her as part of our family. We're truly lucky to have found such a caring person to look after our daughter!!!

a loving home away from home

Debbie is a fantastic childminder and early years practitioner. She provides an excellent learning environment for all the children she looks after. She is warm and caring while setting clear boundaries and being extremely professional. Although I found it very difficult to go back to work after having my son, Debbie settled him in beforehand which made things a lot easier. I have some wonderful memories of my son's time with Debbie: the mess he made of himself enjoying his first strawberry; seamless potty training (I was expecting it to be a nightmare) and, when he was older, reading stories to the younger children after school. I receive lots of compliments on my son's nature and behaviour, and I always give credit to Debbie for the fantastic start in life she helped us give him. I can't recommend her highly enough.

Home from home setting at Debbie's!

It was hard going back to work when my daughter was 8 months, but Debbie helped me put my mind at ease from the moment I met her. What Debbie says in her description is 100% true. She takes the kids out to lots of playgroups and cooks her food herself. She cares about each of the kids in her care deeply.
Debbie is easy to talk to and always gives you an honest account of your child's day. Kids also learn to understand boundaries with Debbie - which was very important to me - however in a playful way.
Debbie's home is also close to Maze Hill station, which I was glad about.

Fantastic childminder

Our 2-year old son has been with Debbie for over a year. He absolutely adores Debbie. She has tons of toys, a lovely garden, a little lovely dog and a cat. She is full of energy and takes the kids almost every day to toddler groups in the area and Greenwich park. She also provides healthy home-cooked food and snacks for the kids, which is another reason why we have chosen her in the first place. I can highly recommend her if you are looking for someone reliable who provides a loving and stable environment for kids to grow up. Unfortunately, she won't move with us.
