penny looked after my two children and was amazing making them feel like part of the family. My son is autistic and this wasn't a barrier as he was made to feel normal comfortable which put my mind at ease. I have no problems with using them as my children will be safe

Thank you ;)
My daughter who is currently studying in Year 2 in Wellington Primary School Hounslow has been going to Mrs. Penny's and Mr. Roger's childcare for the last two years. I have always felt that my daughter is very safe and happy there and I have never heard about any unpleasant experience from my daughter. In addition to the regular schedule, they have been very accommodating to help us for extra hours in case of emergencies. I highly recommend them as child minders.

I have known penny for over 10 years and can voucher for her conscientiousness both as a childminder and a member of the local community. Her warmth towards those in her care and desire to do a good job is faultless.
If my son were still of age I would happily engage penny and her assistant to care for him.
