My daughter has gone to Emma's since she was 1. Emma was very accommodating from the start with my difficult working hours. I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter at Emma's, and she always comes home with a huge smile and a long list of things shes done that day. Emma certainly keeps the children busy and the children really thrive whilst there. I wouldn't hesitate to reccomend emma to any other parents. I am really sad that due to my daughter starting school in another area in september we wont be able to continue to use her.

My little boy went to Emma’s from about the age of 1yr. We initially put him into a nursery but I was never really comfortable with leaving him there when I went to work and he never really settled. I was so glad when Emma had a space and could take him and from day one we never looked back. My little boy totally loved going there and loved seeing Emma too! He spent time learning and playing and I always felt that he was looked after and made to feel like one of Emma’s family. What I liked the most was that I knew if he was ever ill whilst there he would be given good care and attention and lots of cuddles until I could get to pick him up. Myself and my husband would highly recommend Emma to anyone who wants their child looked after well in a safe and Secure environment that provides excellent learning and fun! An amazing childminder! ❤️

My daughter has been with Emma since she was 10 months old and I wouldn’t leave her with anyone else! Going back to work after maternity is difficult, however Emma made the process so much more easier. I receive regular updates, and Emma is very accommodating.
Emma does various activities with all the children, tailored to their individual needs, encouraging them to progress and see their full potential! My daughter has developed so much since being with Emma, and has made lots of friends along the way.
It is a very relaxed and friendly atmosphere and my daughter feels like one of the family. I recommend Emma 110%and know that future children will be very happy here :)

Both of my children have been to Emma’s. One of them started at 9 months and the other at 6 months. Emma has been amazing with both of them. She takes into consideration all children’s individual needs. As a parent going back to work and leaving your children is always hard but Emma made it so much easier for me. Her communication was amazing and she made me feel at ease and I knew my children were having a great time while I was at work. She offers a massive range of activities taking into consideration children’s interests. My children always have lots of fun at Emma’s and will tel me all about what they have done. Highly recommended.

My little girl has been going to Emma’s since she was 9 months and she is now nearly 3. She absolutely loves it, Emma is always keeping them busy and providing fun/ educational things to do. My daughter is very advanced in her learning which a large part of this is due to the help and support from Emma.
Nothing is ever a problem for her and she goes the extra mile for all of her families.
It’s more like a family than and childminder.
5/5, I would recommend her to anyone.
