Great childminder and a great person

Over the past few years, Sue has been an integral part of our daughter Ariana's development and well-being. From the moment we entrusted her with Ariana's care, we knew we had made the right choice.
Sue’s dedication to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment has been evident in Ariana’s growth. She has a natural talent for connecting with children, and her genuine affection for Ariana has helped create a bond of trust and comfort.
One of the standout aspects of her care is her focus on holistic development. She has been instrumental in fostering Ariana's cognitive, social, and emotional growth. Through engaging activities like storytelling, arts and crafts, and interactive games, she has ignited Ariana’s curiosity and love for learning.
Socially, Ariana has blossomed under her guidance. Regular playdates and group activities organized have helped Ariana develop important social skills such as sharing, cooperation, and empathy. She always ensures that these interactions are both fun and educational, encouraging positive behavior and respect for others.
Sue also prioritizes physical activity and healthy habits. She takes Ariana on daily outdoor adventures, whether it’s a trip to the park, a nature walk, or simply playing in the backyard. These activities have not only kept Ariana physically active but have also instilled in her a love for the outdoors and an appreciation for nature.
Emotionally, Ariana has grown to be a confident and happy child. Her consistent and loving presence has provided Ariana with a sense of security and stability. She has always been patient and understanding, offering comfort and support whenever Ariana needed it. This nurturing environment has been crucial in helping Ariana develop a strong sense of self-worth and resilience.
We are immensely grateful for the positive impact Sue has had on Ariana’s early years. Her dedication, creativity, and genuine care have laid a strong foundation for Ariana’s future. Knowing that our daughter is in such capable and loving hands gives us great peace of mind. We wholeheartedly recommend Sue to any family seeking exceptional care and developmental support for their child.

Most Superb Amazing and Kind Childminder

MY children have been with Sue for 2 years, i have changed jobs 4 times and Sue has been extremely flexible with the childcare needed, although my new job is flexible enough that childcare is not an essential, my children will not and refuse to leave Sue's childcare...even with one starting Secondary next year. She looks after my temperamental but gorgeous 4 year old perfectly, she is really good at reigning in my Tornado Twin 9 yr old boys and although one has autism and ADHD, i have not experienced negative behaviour's or crisis moments with him compared to his last after school club, he has had a really positive experience there. My 11 year old absolutely adores Sue and all of the other children in the settings, my daughter dotes on the younger children and likes to keep them entertained.

Highly recommend Sue

My daughter starts with Sue a few months ago. At the beginning I was very concern that because she was not speaking English at all she will not be able to understand what she need to do or how to interact with the other children. When I first meet Sue i knew she is the best on what she is doing.After less than 2 months my daughter start to speak a lot in English and she was able to be very independent. I couldn’t believe! Sue was such important in her development as she was able to teach her a lot of the things I could not manage myself to do it . She start to listen ,play with other children as she didn’t like it before , improve her behaviour and now my mom life is more easier as she is not having anymore tantrums. I highly recommend Sue as a childminder!

Amazing

Sue has been looking after our little boy for the past 4 months from 10 months old!!
He has come on so much in the past few months.
We were very nervous initially about leaving our boy with a stranger but felt reassured from the moment we met sue.
Our little one throughally enjoys his time at sues, always doing something fun. Playing, painting and going for walks to see the ducks.We get updates and pictures which is really nice when your having a stressful day at work. Sue has been excellent and provided us with a lot of reassurance during this difficult pandemic. We get a full handover at each pick up about how his day has been.
We are thrilled with our desicion to send him to a childminder like sue it really is like home from home and we are confident he really enjoys his time there.

Amazing

I have been with Sue for a couple months now and can honestly say sticking with her is the best decision ever. She reassured me as I was a little hesitant at first (as all first mums would be) but, she connected with my daughter and now she loves it there.
I’m always updated everyday with pictures and texts off what my daughter has been upto and the activities she’s been doing. The professionalism, greeting, wide a range of toys, and Sues’s settings is what definitely drawn me to her.
If your looking for a childminder I’d definitely recommend Kids Explore🙌🏼☺️

I am verry happy

My twins started with Sue 5 weeks ago and I was very nervous at the begining but Sue made it so easy for us. She is a very nice person, she gave me that confidence that everything will be ok, she looks very well after my babies and she's there answering all of my questions and fears all the time. My children got used to her and the place very quick, she does lots of activities with them and I've seen them developing very quick.
I do recommend her as a brilliant childminder.

My son has recently started going to sue for a couple weeks know . I went online to look for a child minder for my son and I saw kids explore and contacted sue . we arranged for my son and I to have a look around her settings and to have a chat regarding starting childcare with sue. My son was so happy and settled the first day it was like he was at home this really warmed my heart and I felt so relax and knew he would be very happy going to sue while I am at work . She is so good with him and she does a lot of activities with him I know he is going to do so well . Choosing sue was the best choice for myself and my son

Absolute superstar

My little girls been with sue for quite a while now and she absolutely loves going. I was scared at first to go to work and leave her with a stranger but I'm so happy I did now. Shes always there for a chat, she makes you feel really comfortable and she's one of the best things for my daughter. Since she's been there she wants to play with other kids and she's developed so much. I've moved quite far but I will still take my daughter to sue the days she has her but I couldn't imagine her not in our lives. She's done a lot for me and my baby girl and were really appreciate it. Everytime I pick my little girl up she's so happy and I hear about all the fun she's had.
