My daughter attended Lorraine’s setting for 3 years. The only reason I had to take her out was because I am a teacher and knew it would be easier if I moved her to the school I teach at. My daughter was very happy in Lorraine’s care. Lorraine is a fantastic communicator and extremely trust worthy. I built a fantastic relationship with her and my daughter still request to visit her.
Her setting is child friendly and she makes every effort to create a creative space, where the children are consistently engaged and are able to freely express themselves.

My son has been going to Little Lah Lahs since October 2019. Honestly, the best decision I have made. Lorraine is a superb childminder, patient and professional with such great energy with the kids and in general. There is not one fault I can find and I would 100% recommend her to every parent that wants to see their child develop extremely fast and come home with so much joy and happiness.
Lorraine is also a great communicator and very transparent.

My son has been attending early morning sessions with Lorraine for nearly 2 years. Lorraine has been outstanding; she has helped him with potty training, having good morning routines and taking him to where he needs to be after being with her.
I was very worried about leaving him with a stranger but Lorraine is no stranger; she’s extended family. She’s so warm and welcoming but with the firm ‘no’ so he has boundaries. I am very happy.

My son has attended the morning sessions with Lorraine for 2 years now. She has been the best find ever. Every morning my 3 year old has the best start to his day. The setting and nurturing of children is outstanding. Lorraine takes pride in giving every child the best educational and happy experience you could ask for. We would highly recommend Lorraine to anyone looking for a childminder.

When moving to the area I was so worried about finding a childminder for breakfast and after school care. I had never left my eight year old with anyone that weren’t family! I came across Lorraine and the minute I met her and visited her provision I knew my child was going to be happy and cared for. As time has gone on my child is not just safe and happy she is part of a new family. She is always eager to go there and never wants to come home! Lorraine joins in with her sassy dances and supports her with her homework. She knows my daughter inside out. She has been a shoulder to cry on for the both of us at times. As an early years lead for an outstanding academy I know what to expect and even though my child has long lived her early year stage the activities she offers the younger children and the love she shows is phenomenal. I couldn’t ever imagine my child being with another childminder. A review will never be able to say how amazing this woman is and the care she offers!!!
