Choosing Cherie as our first child minder was undoubtedly the right choice. She totally understands the children's needs and pays close attention to their individual ways and habits in order to create a fun-filled and educational environment for the kids to thrive in. Within the first two weeks, our daughter's vocabulary expanded and she is growing at a rapid pace. Cherie offers plenty of outings and activities as well as having a house and garden tailored to keep the kids entertained and happy. The prefect place for us providing total peace of mind. Go Cherie :)

thank you so much x
my two children have been going to Cherie over 2 years as a childminder setting. My children absolutely enjoy their time together with Cherie when they attend 3 days a week.
Cherie has been absolutely fantastic with my children and has been such a great teacher (childminder) my children look forward to seeing Cherie they are so happy when they arrive. Cherie has shown so much pure kindness and support towards my children from day one when both of my children started at Cherie’s childcare setting. My children have achieved and developed so much in their time with being at Cherie’s childcare settling over the last 2 years i strongly feel that how my children have achieved and developed so much in their time with Cherie has had so much of a part to play in their development skills. I am so proud of how much my children have achieved and I would highly recommend Cherie as an individual that has so much passion in her job and thrives to achieve the best possible outcome for the children.
Thank you so much Cherie!!!!
You are amazing and so lovely!

My 3 year old daughter doesn’t warm to many adults on their first meeting, and is often nervous in new environments, but she walked straight into Cherie’s like she had been there many times before, and didn’t want to leave! Cherie is so observent of body language and unspoken cues, Ada warmed to her in seconds. Her two dogs are so friendly and so good with children too. I would highly recommend a visit to see if she’s the right fit for your child’s needs.

We met Cherie in November last year on our first visit both of our boys were comfortable with Cherie. Every morning when we drop off the boys Cherie is very welcoming with a big smile on her face and has definitely positive started the day my boys love it. I have seen improvements in my 1 year old he is very talkative after his session. Our 3 year old loves Cherie before we even get there he says Cherie will play music for me and we will sing and dance. Cherie is lovely, friendly and amazing in every way my mind is in peace when my boys are with Cherie. Cherie keeps me updated throughout the day with pictures, videos and messages which is amazing. We definitely recommend Cherie she is definitely a super lady.

My 1 year old and 2 year old have been going to Cherie’s for sometime now and as parents we can’t not thank cherie enough for everything she has done and does for our daughters! She is amazing and so kind and she would go above and beyond or anyone.
Our daughters since going to Cherie’s we are so pleased with how both our children have developed in their skills and speech and blossomed in to their own person.
I would highly recommend cherie as a highly rated childminder.

My 2 and a half year old son has been with Cherie since he was 1. I have always been hesitant about sending my son to a nursery so at the time of me returning to work from maternity leave I was only considering child minders. Despite continuous family members and friends putting doubts in my mind about him ‘not being around enough children of his own age’ I went with Cherie, a year and a half on I have no regrets.
Cherie is like family to my son, he loves her and always looks forward to the days he spends there. There hasn’t been a single day he has come back in a bad mood. Majority of days, even gloomy days, I am sent many pictures and videos of the children playing in the garden. I think this is important as, not only my son, but all children I know love being outside in nature. She has a variety of play activities for the children. Outside she has messy play, water play (on hot days), a slide, a sand pit and the children can bring toys of their choice into the garden too. Inside she has an array of toys, musical instruments and also does lots of arts and crafts activities with the children. Some days Cherie will even take the children to the park and out for walks.
Most weeks her and my son will pick books from her collection for me to read with him at home which I have always found lovely. When I was pregnant with my second baby she would select books to help prepare him for having a little sister.
My sons speech, compassion, motor neuron skills and manors are excellent and I feel Cherie definitely has a part to play in that.
Another thing I like is the different ages of children he can play and interact with. Whether it’s being around younger children (helping him be caring and gentle with smaller children) or older children (learning new and more advanced skills from them).
My son will be with Cherie until he is of school age and when my daughter is old enough she will be going along too.
Not only is Cherie fantastic with children but she also cares about us parents too and has done many kind gestures for me in my time with her.
A lovely, nurturing women who I would highly recommend anyone to.

Cherie is looking after my two children (3yo and 1,5yo) every Thursday while I go to college. When college called me that the course is starting I spent 2weeks looking for childminder with no success. On the third week I contacted Cherie , after my friend suggested her, and shocked her by saying I need her that same exact week. So she quickly arranged us to go over and meet her. Children were quite curious about everything they saw in Cherie’s house , especially they loved the pups 🥰 so the first Thursday came and was their first time staying there without me. I was very nervous as I knew my 1year old is very attached to me and never wants to be left with anyone. She cried when I left and I believe around 30min later I received the first photos/videos of my children being totally happy and playing. That put me at ease.
Even now, after having multiple sessions with Cherie- my daughter still cries when left there but nothing has changed - I still get a video 20-30min later that they are settled 😊 so I absolutely don’t worry when leave them as I know they are doing so many fun things-playing in garden, learning and practising songs and musical instruments and reading books.
It’s lovely there and thank you to Cherie for being so quick in responding to me when I felt like I’m not gonna find anyone before my college starts ❤️

This is the first time we have put both of our daughters in to childminders.
when we first met Cherie to introduce our children to her at her home she is so welcoming and calm and gentle and also very understand we as first time parents to put them in to childminders were quite anxious on putting our children in to childminders but That soon changed after meeting and having the reassurance from Cherie.
Any issue or questions we had Cherie is so helpful and she will go the extra mile to help where she possibly can.
I would like to say We are so pleased with the progress of our children getting on so well with going to Cherie’s childminders and just having piece of mind that both of our children are very happy being there.
Thank you Cherie for everything you do you are the best childminders we shall have for our girls.

Well, what can I say about Cherie? In a word? Excellent! She is the first childminder I have ever used, and I couldn’t be happier, to the point where I wonder why I hadn’t looked into sending my 2 older children to a childminder rather than a nursery.
I found Cherie literally the week I was due to start work after a year’s mat leave. She was very accommodating and proactive in arranging an interview and 2 introductory sessions with my 1 year old, given the time constraint.
One of the main things I felt about Cherie upon meeting her was how maternal she is and the fact that she is obviously in this profession due to her love of children. Instantly I felt at ease.
My son has been with Cherie on a part-time basis for about a month now and he has settled in well. Cherie is brilliant at keeping in touch throughout the day with photos and videos which are a delight! She prides herself on a ‘home from home’ setting and I completely agree. My son always has a clean face and fresh nappy when I collect him. She also tailors the day according to your child’s needs and is always happy to give my little one a warm cuddle, which is the most important thing. My son is an extremely slow eater at times, and she has even been known to preserver for an hour to get him fed! That’s how dedicated she is.
Overall, I couldn’t recommend Cherie highly enough! I’m so pleased to have found her.

My 19 month old son has come on loads since being cared for by Cherie. I work full time so Cherie has my son 5 days a week. Being an only child I felt his language was slightly delayed but since being with Cherie he has a started saying more words, singing, doing actions ect. He has learnt to feed himself and sit at the table by himself too. Cherie makes an effort to spend lots of time in the garden with the children which I love, it makes me feel better as I still get serious mum guilt for leaving him. I know he’s outside most of the day which is his favourite place to be. I’m happy to know my child isn’t ever just sat in front of a screen. Cherie has lots of toys for the children and does lots of activities with them thought out the day. Would highly recommend!

When it came time to find some childcare I was very anxious but Cherie was very understanding and accommodating of our needs. I get regular updates throughout the day with videos and photos of my son playing and enjoying himself which helps immensely with being away from him. I love how varied the activities are, some days hes learning new skills with toys or painting and drawing with arts and crafts. Sometimes even trips to soft play. He has a great time and I really like how he gets to socialise with other children but in a smaller group than he would get in a nursery.

Cherie has recently been looking after our daughter and it’s been amazing to see her coming away from Cherie’s at the end of the day smiling from ear to ear and asking when she can go back. After having a not so positive experience with a nursery it’s so relieving and emotional as parents to see regular pictures and videos Cherie sends throughout the day of my daughter somewhere where she is comfortable, happy and looked after. Just like a home for home
Cherie has recently helped us by providing emergency childcare services at a drop of a hat. We would highly recommend Cherie to anyone and everyone, very grateful that we have fount her for our daughter

I was looking for emergency childcare and came to know Cherie. She’s very professional and both my 2 and 3 year old children love being with Cherie. I know they are in very good hands and well looked after. Cherie went the extra mile by picking up my son from his nursery also so I can focus on my new job. Highly recommend her to anyone. Kids love her !!

Cherie has been looking after our 11 month old daughter since the beginning of April. Cherie has been great from the beginning she has really made me feal at ease and I have seen how professional she is and how much she cares for the children she looks after.
She provides our daughter with a safe, fun and educational environment and tasty homemade meals.
Our daughter is always happy being at Cherie's and we couldn't be happier either and have noticed our daughters progression.
We would highly recommend her to anyone seeking childcare

My daughter has been going to Cherie’s once a week since the start of January and me and my partner are absolutely astounded at how much she’s come on! Cherie is amazing with her and keeps her busy throughout the day. Cherie not only is good with Sienna she really makes the parents feel welcome and updates me throughout the day with pictures of Sienna. She cooks lovely home made lunches and dinners made for her every time she’s over! I can’t stress how pleased I am that I found someone to care and put my mind at ease whilst I’m away from her.
5 * review from me and all our family!
Thanks so much Cherie x x

Cherie has been looking after my 2 year old son since March last year. Cherie is fully aware of the EYFS curriculum and has been fantastic at setting out activities to support this. My son has come on leaps and bounds with his speech and understanding and I’m very proud of him. Cherie has been wonderful and my son is always very happy when I drop him off and pick him up. He has lots of fun there and Cherie supports is as a family.

Cherie has been looking after my 1year old daughter since January of this year and has been absolutely fantastic! I was very nervous about returning to work and leaving my daughter for the first time but from the first moment I met Cherie I knew she’d be the right fit for us, she has made this experience very easy and any worry I had soon went away. My daughter enjoys being with her and the environment she provides, My daughter is always happy when I pick her up from Cherie and always has a great time with her. I would highly recommend Cherie to any first time mum returning to work. A++

Cherie has been a lovely and caring natural born childminder. As a parent, ever since Cherie started minding my child there has been a tremendous improvement in his communications and attitude and my son is happy to be with her.
She is someone I will always highly recommend any time to someone looking for a childminder as she is the perfect childminder any parent could wish for.
My son is happy and as a parent I am happy has well.
Thank you Cherie.

Cherie has recently started looking after my Son who is in Year 1 at Werrington Primary School 2 days a week after school.
We went to meet Cherie and he instantly took to her, she was engaging and extremely professional, she was able to show me all of her certificates and informed me of her procedures so I knew that he would be in safe hands. Cherie texts me once she has got Alfie to her house/or if they are at the park so I know he has been picked up safely this is very reassuring and I love getting the message to say he's safe it really puts my mind at rest.
He loves going to Cherie's after school, they always do crafts, Lego, Dress up, or go to the park if weather permits, he settled straight away and is always asking if its a 'Cherie Day' today.
Her setting is very safe and secure and lovely and clean, she has a vast array of toys, outside play equipment everything you could ask for really.
I'm 100% happy with the care that she provides to Alfie and would be happy to speak to anyone any one in person to reassure them as I know how hard it is to leave your child in someone else's care. Mandy

Cherie has been looking after my 5 year old twin boys since March 2017. It was my first time leaving them with anybody that wasn't family so I wanted to make sure I found the right person.
Cherie is lovely and the boys really like her. Her house is always lovely and clean and she changes the toys regularly so the children don't get bored. She often takes them to the park after school and always keeps me updated with pictures of what their doing.
She really is a lovely person and I can't recommend her enough.
She has made my return to work a lot easier as I know the boys are safe and well cared for when under her supervision.

Cherie has been looking after my 3 year old boy since febuary 2017 and wow what a difference she has made. My boy was very behind on alot of aspects of learning eg. Numbers colours and reading and writing and holding a pen correctly. He has now changes he knows all his colours he can now write his own name and recognise the letters and all colours. My son gets excited to see cherie every day so much so i took him out of preschool and now send him to cherie full time. Cherie is caring kind and very passionate about her work. She is always on hand to talk to if i have anu concerns and helps me overcome this. I love how she keeps me updated with pictures and messages or even a quick phone call during the day to let me know how my son is doing or the activities he is taking part in.
All round fantastic childminder. Would recommend to anyone.

Cherie has been looking after our 6 years old daughter since March when we changed schools. We were a bit worried that changing schools and childcare will be a lot to take in. Soon, we were happy to realise that this was the easiest part. We need Cherie for both pre and after school times. We are kept updated with what they are up to after school: park adventures or creative activities and yummy dinners. She is reliable and accommodating when we need her help. But most importantly our little girl loves it there xx
