My son has been with Cherie at Hunny bunnies for around 7-8 months, she’s always gone above and beyond to help with any needs. Based at lovely homely setting, Highly recommended to anyone looking for a friendly childminder!!!

Theo has been with Cherie since January when he was 9 months old, he settled in so quickly and absolutely loves it there. He comes home happy and has recently started some full days to help him get used to me going back to work full time. Cherie is always on board with encouraging his next development steps and I’m sure has helped with Theo’s amazing development over the time he’s been there.

My boys are currently with Cherie for two weeks as my regular child minder is away. She also covers some dates that my child minder can't do and is very flexible.
Cherie and her home (and 'Ollie Cat'!) are very warm and welcoming. My boys love it there and always come home happy and full of stories of what they have been doing. Cherie provides lots of varied activities in her beautiful home and takes them to stimulating places such as the cinema and Wheelgate.
I would highly recommend Cherie and Hunny Bunnys to anyone and feel very lucky to have her as our emergency care!

My daughter attended Hunny Bunny's childcare for just over 2 years prior to her starting full time school. She absolutely loved her time with Cherie.
Cherie is kind and caring and I felt confident leaving my daughter in her care. Cherie was always adaptable to our needs. I would highly recommend her as a childmimder..

I have been using Cherie for nearly 6 months now and found her to be extremely friendly and professional. I was initially worried about leaving my children with anyone as I had never left them before and my 3 year old daughter was extremely shy however within 5 minutes of meeting Cherie my daughter felt comfortable and didn't want to leave. She now can't wait to go to Cherie's and has grown in confidence. My 1 year old son is also happy to go and now doesn't even make a fuss when I leave him. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a childminder.
