My two children first joined Camilla's setting when they were three years and 10 months old. They both remained at the setting until they were 11. It took us a long time to find a childminder we felt we could leave our children with and when we first met Camilla I knew her setting was the right place. My children both felt safe and happy there and my youngest started referring to Camilla at home as his step-mum! They both had an excellent relationship with Camilla and her setting felt like their second home. We loved Camilla's approach to supporting child development in the early years and she obviously has a deep understanding of how to support young children's development. Her communication is excellent and varied, sending photos, messages, verbally and in written form. Even when my children only joined Camilla after school I often had photographs of them having fun. Over the years Camilla has supported my children during some very difficult times and has been a constant figure whom they trust and feel secure with. They have had a wide range of experiences within her setting including baking, trips to the library, parks, feeding the ducks, painting and so many more. Both my children were nurtured and flourished under Camilla's care and I feel so lucky that we found her. She really is so much more than a childminder and my children always reflect on the happy times they spent with her. I cannot thank her enough for the years of care and support she gave to my children and my family as a whole.
