My son Max was with Alex for just over 3 years from the age of 1 up until he started reception this September. Since day 1 Alex has been absolutely amazing and has been a constant source of support as we have navigated Max's early years. Alex and her team provide a home away from home and I always knew that Max was in the best of hands while he was there. She truly cares about the children and goes above and beyond with arranging activities and extra special touches for birthdays/Christmas etc. She has an absolutely incredible garden full of toys for the children, and the front garden is always beautifully and thoughtfully decorated depending on the season. It is truly a child's dream! Alex is also extremely organised and I was always amazed by her memory for details and the way she manages her schedule. She is also very flexible, reliable, responsive and never makes you feel like something is too much trouble. She truly is the best childminder out there and I can't recommend her enough! We are so sad to have said goodbye now that Max has started reception, she really became part of our family and had a huge impact on Max's early years. Thank you Alex for all your support over these last few years!

Alex has been my childminder now for about 2 years now and she is the absolute best childminder that anyone could ask for. She is so supportive and considerate. My children love her and her staff so much. She is very helpful, reliable and trustworthy. And when I say she goes above and beyond I truly mean she goes the extra mile. Thank you Alex for your continued support, I really don’t know what I would do without you.

Alex has looked after our two sons for 2.5 years since they were 5 and 1 respectively. Since their first day they have been happy going to her house and always enjoy their time with her and her team. We are expecting number 3 and my first thought was to check that Alex would be happy to have them once the time comes!! We have also recommended her to several friends in the area who also now send their children to her.
She seems to like and enjoy children of all ages - from the very little babies to the rumbunctious older children. She is kind and caring and also supportive of the ups and downs of parenting.
Her setting is well arranged for the children and especially in the summer they spend loads of time out in the garden which is wonderful for them.
She is extremely flexible and has helped us out around shift work on numerous occasions. She was also very helpful in getting the children settled at school and preschool.
I would not hesitate to recommend Alex as a childminder for anyone - it is a great home from home environment!

Not only does Alex provide excellent childcare, I would say she provides exceptional ‘adultcare’ too! We can’t imagine how we’d have got through this crazy phase of family and work life if we hadn’t met Alex. She is supportive, flexible, calm, incredibly generous and caring… the list could go on. The kids love it there and have flourished in the home from home setting. She is a real gem, we’re so glad we found her.

I have been using Alex’s service for the past four years since I had a change in career. She has been absolutely amazing from start to finish. My son settled in straight away. She is caring and loving towards the children whilst remaining professional. She has been very understanding of my situation and has been flexible and has accommodated my needs every single time. She has a safe and spacious environment for the children and allows them to do a variety of activities. Alex is always on time for school drop off and pick up and not once have we had any issues. I highly recommend alex services to anyone else and I will continue to use her services until my son is of age to not need childcare whilst I am at work .
