Nana is committed to provided a homely, safe and engaging childminding provision. Both our children transitioned to Nana’s super easily, they loved it from day one and they felt like they have gained another family. Ellaine’s house is great - super clean, organised and has a fabulous garden where the children play for hours together. They love being in a home setting (especially at a young age) and she treats them like they are a part of her family. She give them so much love and reassurance alongside clear boundaries and high expectations.

Ellaine is so flexible and helpful. She never adds to our stress - she looks at how she can help our entire family and takes stress away from us.

She is extremely knowledgeable about child development and the early years but always listens to you and if you have any concerns. Our children have absolutely thrived with her. She keeps them safe, healthy and well fed. She has worked with us to develop our children’s social skills and speech. All the children in Nana’s care become so confident with their speech and love chatting away. She has developed their knowledge (colours, numbers, vocabulary etc) through crafts, trips in the local area and a wide variety of activities. She always knows what our children’s next steps are and works with them to develop these.

Nana is very much part of our family and has nurtured and given us so much care and love . We know that the children will grow up going to Nana’s and she has played a large role in the amazing toddlers they have both become.

Ellaine is extremely reliable and understands the stress presented to working parents. She has never closed during our time with her and always communicates holidays well in advance.
