Shona looked after our daughter from the age of 1 until she was 3.

We chose to send her to a private childminder as we wanted a better quality of care than our son had received going to a local nursery.

In particular, we were looking for a home-like environment where our daughter would settle quickly and feel happy and comfortable. Shona had been highly recommended by a friend of ours, so it was an easy decision to make.

We were very pleased with the quality of childcare Shona provided. Our daughter settled very quickly and was happy being dropped off at Shona’s house without any tears after only a couple of weeks.

Not only does Shona provide a high quality of care, but she is also very active in playing with the children she looks after and helping them to learn and develop.

Our daughter really enjoyed her time with Shona and developed a strong bond, both with her and the other children in her care.

We’ll always be grateful for the excellent start in life that Shona provided for her in these important early years and if you’re looking for a positive, safe environment where your child will be happy and thrive, then I can’t recommend Shona highly enough.
