Phillipa is an amazing childminder and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. When I initially put my eldest into childcare with another childminder he was very anxious and upset so I changed to Phillipa when he was 1. The difference in him was amazing! She was so encouraging that he became much more confident and outgoing and has now grown into a very lively and outspoken five year old! My youngest is now nearly three and he has also grown in confidence since being with Phillipa. It is really reassuring to know that when they go to Phillipa's it's like an extension of my care as she looks after them and loves them as if they were her own. Phillipa regularly takes the boys to toddler groups, soft play or sing and sign so they always have something to tell me about or show me when I go to pick them up. Phillipa has a lovely, welcoming family home and both Phillipa and Alana are always happy to discuss the boys progress or support me and my family in any way they can.
