Safe friendly and trustworthy
Claire has been amazing with our son. He has been with Claire since he was 12 months old. She has had him for two years and he couldn't have been in better hands.
He settled in immediately and was reaching out for cuddles from Claire after only one visit which was to get him ready to start for the full day! I was amazed. He clearly enjoyed going to Claires which was a great relief when I returned to work.
Claire is so great with kids of all ages and its lovely that he got to experience playing and mixing with the after school kids also. He loves being outside and had plenty of opportunity at Claires.
He's never been a great napper but amazingly claire got him into the routine of napping on the couch during the day, something we never managed. She also taught him to put on his own jacket amongst other things. We were kept updated by daily notes, photos and a folder with all the milestones he had achieved.
The only reason we are moving on is that he is 3 and starting nursery.
I couldn't recommend Claire enough. Having a lively childminder like Claire is a great way to introduce your child to another care giver and get them used to being with others. Your child will be in safe, warm, friendly hands with Claire.
