My son, Finn, has been going to Marion since he was 1 year old (now 14 months).The first time we visited Marion, we could tell she had a great rapport with the children and knew Finn would be in safe hands. She scheduled settling in days which was a great thing to do so Finn could get used to his new environment. He goes to Marion's two days a week, 8am-5.30pm and Marion always makes sure he has good activities to partake in both days, he goes to toddlers and playgroup, he has trips to the swing park, plays in the garden and he has even been to the transport museum. Finn really enjoys his time and always comes home tired and ready for bed! Marion fills out a diary every day to let us know what he enjoyed, what he ate, naps etc which is great for communication and we can write things in too if there is anything Marion should need to know for the day (the drop offs can be quite rushed when you're heading off to work!!). Marion is great for suggesting different things for Finn that we may not have thought about, she really does have brilliant knowledge and experience. Finn has settled in well and he loves spending time with Marion and John and socialising with the other children at Marion's. I wouldn't have any doubts recommending Marion to any other families.

Hi Kirstin thank you for the lovely review
I enjoy looking after your child who is happy to be at the childminders .
Thanks Marion
We first used Marion in 2019 for our oldest son Connor and then again for our youngest son Aidan in 2021. Aidan had the most wonderful two years and has become such a confident happy boy which Marion has helped with. Aidan rarely came home empty handed from Marion's as he may have done some art, crafts or baking. He loved going to playgroup and had a fantastic relationship with John, Marion's husband. I have always and will always continue to highly recommend Marion. As a family we were sad to say goodbye to Marion as Aidan started nursery.

Marion has been our childminder for nearly 2 years now, and we cannot praise her highly enough. Our little girl (Isla, 2 and a half) loves both Marion and her husband John. They do a great range of activities – she’s always coming home with painting, crafts or baking, as well as getting out to soft play, feeding the ducks, the park etc. Marion takes them to playgroups a couple of times each week which Isla loves. I feel Isla gets a good balance of activities and socialisation but also ‘down’ time in a home environment. Marion’s home is perfectly set up for childminding, with a lovely safe garden and a great living room space with lots of toys. Marion was really patient when Isla took a while to settle (I went back to work when she was just 9 months) and it didn’t take too long before Isla was really happy there.
I feel very little ‘Mum guilt’ going off to work these days, as I know that Isla is somewhere she is well looked after, and with someone who really cares about her. Marion genuinely seems to love looking after kids, and John too has built a great relationship with Isla. It’s amazing to have this sort of peace of mind, and we intend to keep Isla with Marion for the foreseeable future.
Marion is incredibly reliable (don’t want to jinx it but in 2 years, she’s not taken a day off sick!) and she has been willing to be quite flexible around our working patterns – we have altered our hours with her a couple of times to accommodate changing job situations etc. Communication is good – when Isla was younger Marion kept a diary so we knew what she had done each day/when she’d had a nap etc (these days Isla tells us!). She was really helpful in picking up cues that Isla was ready for potty training and communicating this to us.
Essentially I can’t recommend Marion highly enough for her brilliant home environment, range of developmentally appropriate activities, reliability and the relationship she builds with the kids.

Thank you Caitlin for the review.i love looking after Isla she is a great child and very well mannered.thanks Marion .
Marion currently looks after my 1 year old daughter and I can confidently say she is well looked after. Marion is great and very well experienced. Her home is a safe and welcoming environment, she also takes the children to play groups and does lots of fun activities! Marion writes in a communication book everyday telling me what my daughter has ate, when she has napped and what she has done throughout the day which I find very useful. Would highly recommend!

Thank you Kelly for your review your baby is a joy to look after she has settled in well x
We first used Marion in 2019 for our oldest son Connor and when we needed a childminder for our youngest Aidan there was no one else we would consider. Aidan has now been going to Marion for 9 months and he loves it just as much as Connor did. They both love John too. We recommended Marion so much our nephew Archie also goes. Aidan always comes home happy from Marion's and loves to show off any pictures or cakes he has made that day. He loves going to playgroup and I can certainly see the increase in confidence he gets week in and week out at Marion's. I have always and will always continue to highly recommend Marion.

Marion is currently looking after my son 2 days a week from 8-6. He absolutely loves going and loves both Marion and John!! Marion has been great from the beginning with settling in and reassuring me! She also does a lot of activities with the kids and takes them to toddlers groups which Archie absolutely loves! Love him coming home with the pictures or crafts they have all made that day. Highly recommended and can relax at work knowing Archie is so well looked after!

Marion has been looking after our daughter Aila Rose since she was 13 months, two days a week. Leaving your first child with someone you don’t know was daunting, but Marion made us feel so at ease by keeping us updated on how she was getting on each day. Her days with Marion are varied and they go to groups, walks and enjoy play time at home, in Marion’s very child friendly home.
Aila Rose goes in to Marion very happy in the morning, waving goodbye to us and comes away happy at the end of the day.
Marion and her husband John make Aila Rose very much at home in the time she is in their care. I would not hesitate recommending Marion to any parents to send their child to her. Aila Rose has grown in confidence and enjoys hanging out with her friends at Marion’s home.

Thanks Marion Xx
Marion looks after our 14 month girl Isla old 4 days/week, and I cannot rate her highly enough. Isla was 9 months old when she started with Marion, and despite a tricky start with significant separation anxiety, she soon settled and is now really happy with Marion and her husband John. Their house is a great environment for children, with a variety of toys, a great garden. She goes to playgroup a couple of times a week, lots of trips to park etc. but also has a decent amount of 'down' time just to be at home, and play with toys - this was important to us as we work long hours and we want her to have a sense of a normal home environment. Marion uses a communication book which is really helpful to know what times Isla has had a sleep, and any issues. Isla usually comes home well fed, happy and tired! Would definitely recommend her childminding service. :)

I can't recommend Marion highly enough. From our first correspondence she was extremely prompt at replying, and remained communicative throughout. Marion arrived very promptly, and was extremely thorough and professional, and made us feel very much at ease to be heading out for the evening.

Marion watched our 14 month old while we in town from America for a wedding. She was so wonderful!! She watched him at our hotel room. We messaged back and forth (she was very responsive) before the trip and I sent her a deposit to make sure we got the date locked in.
She was totally competent and my son had a great time. They went for a walk, had dinner, bath time, and bedtime. We felt totally comfortable leaving our son with her and would recommend her without question!!

Marion is an excellent care provider for my 16 month old son. She has been very patient with him while he gets to know her and the other children in her care, and is always doing creative and fun activities with him. He now jumps out of my arms when we get to her house to run up to her!
Marion keeps me updated with photos and a diary of how he has been and is great with her communication. I’m so happy that we chose Marion to look after our little one.

Marion is a lovely woman who obviously adores the children in her care. My son settled in with her very quickly and his development has come on leaps and bounds in his time with her. She does a lot of activities with them including crafts and baking and they regularly get outside to play when the weather allows. I would definitely recommend Marion 🙂

We have only been using Marion since last September for both my daughters, Faith (12) and Paige (7) and would highly recommend. Marion has been amazing and the girls have settled so well. They love going to Marions and do all sorts of activities such as arts and crafts and baking. Due to the second lockdown we haven’t needed the childcare but Marion has made sure they have not missed out from Christmas presents to Easter eggs. The girls are excited about getting back to Marions in the coming weeks.

Thank you for your review I enjoyed looking after the girls they were a pleasure to look after hopefully they are back soon as we are coming into the better weather thanks marion Xx
We have been using Marion since 2018. My Son went to Marion until he turned 3 and My Daughter currently attends Marion 3 days a week. Both kids love it at Marion's house.
My daughter started after lockdown in 2020 and I was worried how it would go but Marion was amazing. We started with settling in hours and just took it 1 day at a time. Within a couple weeks my Daughter was so excited to go.
Marion does so much with the kids. Baking, Arts and Crafts and takes them to the park or for outside play. She also has so much different type of toys for the kids to play with. She also helps with there development and has educational toys/activities for the kids.
Both my Son and my Daughter love Marion and I know if she is watching them they are in safe hands.
I would highly recommend Marion to anyone looking for a childminder.

I needed a childminder for afterschool care including collection from the local secondary school.
Marion is able to accommodate the pick up at the additional location and provides a warm, welcoming environment for my child who has additional support needs.
My child enjoys the time spend with Marion and the other children in her care.

Marion has been our nanny for a few years. My son is starting school and my working pattern has changed to accommodate this so we no longer require regular childcare. I will always continue to request Marion’s availability for babysitting as she provides fantastic care. Marion has been reliable and has a comprehensive range of childcare qualifications. My son is very fond of Marion and it has been great knowing he is in excellent hands whilst I’m at work. Thanks Marion!

we were stuck for childcare when due to Covid19 Darryls private nursery closed however Marion has been fantastic with us she has been so flexible and understanding. Darryl settled in so quickly and is always so content and happy with Marion. My car broke down on the way to drop him off one day and she even came and collected him for me which was so unexpected and appreciated. Thank you so much Marion.

On my childminding service .thanks Marion x
I needed a childminder for my daughter for when I started university and it was such a relief to find someone like Marion. She has created such a kind, warm and welcoming environment for the kids. Jackie adores her and was happy and relaxed with her from the minute we went for our first visit. She is always excited to see Marion and I love the crafts and drawings Jackie brings home. You can always tell she’s enjoyed her day. We get a journal home to tell us about Jackie’s day and she gets to go on different outings. We couldn’t have found a better fit for us and will all really miss Marion now Jackie is off to nursery.

I contacted Marion as I was returning back to work after becoming a first time Mum. Not going to lie I was very nervous about leaving Connor with anyone new and I felt guilty at leaving him to go to work. Connor has settled in fantastically with Marion over the past 4 months and has developed a great bond with Marion. He thoroughly enjoys his two days with Marion and the other children. I had reservations of whether to put him in nursery or a childminder and we definitely made the right choice picking Marion. Unfortunately I never get to drop off or pick up Connor but my husband, parents and in laws always have good things to say when they are dropping Connor off or picking him up. Thank you for taking such good care of our pride and joy.

I asked Marion to look after our 5 month old daughter, while we were on an event with my husband. As this was the first time I ever left her for more than an hour, I was very nervous and wasn't sure if I could do it. Then I've found Marion through this website and after talking to her and meeting up with her, I knew my baby will be in safe and capable hands. :) Baby Mia was happy and well looked after. I would definitely recommend Marion!

Marion is a very nice person, my son is always happy about the time spent with her. She was a great help for is because we don't have relatives here, sometimes it becomes really tough to manage the time between work,college and children.Marion was really helpful and understanding person ,we really sorry because was for a short time because we need to move,I was lucky with Mairon,our Nicholas adapted so good and quick with here.
Couldn't be more grateful .
Is nice when you meat good people in your life and have good experiences.
I wanted to keep Nicholas up to the school time but yaaa the plans is not always like we want.
Because we moving far of Bishopbriggs we don't have enough time to pick up Nicholas and we don't like to disturbing with our late🙉.

I contacted Marion for after school care, went along and visited her house with my child. Since attending, my child has settled in well and really enjoys the one on one attention Marion provides. My child gets on wonderfully with the other children and loves helping out with the younger kids, especially the babies.
Marion provides a safe and stimulating environment for children of all ages and is very understanding towards the fact I'm a student and is very flexible. I can always text and call Marion if I have any queries or things I have to tell her.

Marion has been looking after my three year old daughter for the last two years, and it’s time for her to start nursery. Both myself and my daughter are really sad to be leaving Marion. Her care and support have been first rate. She encourages activities such as reading, drawing and flash cards and this has brought my daughters skills on tremendously. In addition Marion takes the children on outings. Marion has also very helpfully accommodated extra hours I required whenever she could due to my work commitments. I was always happy to leave my daughter with Marion kiwi f she would be happy and well looked after. I would highly recommend Marion as a childminder. She will be missed!

Based on previous reviews we commissioned Marion to help put our two little ones to bed and babysit for the night so we could attend a charity function.
Marion's communication was brisk and efficient. Her manner was professional, her work ethic commendable, I am sure when we need help again we will know we are in safe hands.
When we returned home from our function the playroom had even been tidied.
Thank you Marion.

Thank you for your review it was nice to meet you both. I enjoyed looking after your two children. I look forward to looking after them in the near future.
Thanks Marion.
Marion is a very nice person, with lots of activities for children and my son is always happy about the time spent with her. As it's only me and my husband here, sometimes it becomes really tough to manage the time between work and children. Therefore, Marion was really helpful and understanding when some urgent situations appeared or out-of-the schedule time that needed someone to take care of our son after school.
Also the house is very tidy and she offers only healthy snacks. Couldn't be more grateful for her support.

Marion been looking after my 1 year old son for few months now. He is my first so having someone else to look after him wasn't easy at first, however, I am so glad I came across Marion's profile on Childcare.co.uk, she is lovely, reliable and very accommodating. I always get feedback on how he is doing and the diary you get given everyday is always good to read. He is definitely getting the attention & care he needs.

I used Marion for the first time last night as a last minute babysitter, and I will definitely be using her again. She was punctual and polite and very good with my Son. She was very organised with all the essential paper work for me to fill out, which definitely put my mind at ease.
She communicated with me about how my son was while I was out, which was lovely. I would definitely recommend Marion to anyone looking for babysitter for their little ones.

Thank you Amy for your review I enjoyed looking after you little boy .marion x
My son has been going to Marion 4 days a week for the last 7 Months.
Our Son is our first child so I was really nervous about leaving him with someone strange but i didnt need to be. We met Marion when our son was a few months old and then arranged settling in days prior to me going back to work. My son settled in great and loves his time there. Marion also made me feel at ease and i knew he was in safe hands.
Marion takes them to playgroups, softplay and does arts and crafts and even baking with them. . i love how my son gets to do a variety of activites and also gets to interact with other children. She also has alot of variety of toys for the kids to play with in her house and garden.
Marion writes a daily diary. I love coming home and reading what he got up to that day.
Marion is really easy to talk to and nothing is too much trouble.
My son loves both Marion and her Husband and has even had more than a few cries because we have picked him up to go home.
We would highly recommend Marion to anyone looking for a childminder.

Marion has been looking after our daughter for almost 3 months, but it feels like a second home for her as she is always delighted to go!
Marion takes the children on outings during the day to ensure they are active and happy. The children receive healthy snacks and Marion is more than happy to oblige with any dietary requests. There are plenty of toys in the house and Marion does arts and crafts with the children too. Communication is great and marion writes a daily diary with details of the days activities!feel happy knowing my daughter is being looked after in a safe and fun environment.

Thank you for the review I enjoy looking after your little boy as he is so well behaved
Thanks Marion x
Marion sat with my 2 daughters for two days, we often used baby babysitters but this was the first time we were not worried about our children. The moment we met her, we noticed that she was very professional in what she does, her house was wonderful and located in a beautiful area. And she did everything she could to make our experience more enjoyable.
I would strongly recommend her services and will definitely go to her in the future. Thank you Marion.

Thanks for your review it was a pleasure to look after your 2 children I look forward to seeing you all again the next time you are all in Glasgow Thanks Marion .
Marion has been looking after my son 2 days a week since he was 8 months old (March 17). He started going to Marion in January for some 'settling in' hours and this meant he was absolutely fine when I left him for full days. Marion was recommended to me by my friend who's little girl had been looked after by her. Marion provides the children with lots of entertainment and takes them on trips to the park, softplay, playgroup etc. I'm sure my son really enjoys these outings. He always smiles when we arrive at the front door in the morning. I have no hesitation in recommending Marion.

Hi Rasha thanks you for asking me to look after you children I enjoyed looking after them as they were lovely children
Thanks Marion .
Marion was recommended to us through a work colleague and we are very glad we found her! Our son Caelan has been with Marion since he was 9 months and right away he was happy to settle as Marion provides a great welcoming environment for all her children.
Communication is always excellent; we love to read about the day's adventures in his diary each night. Marion provides an educational as well as fun environment. She always has a full plan of fun things for the children every day.
We would recommend Marion without hesitation to anyone looking for a childminder, before/after school care or babysitting. You couldn't make a better choice.

Am glad that your daughter enjoys her time with me and the other children as I lenjoy looking after you daughter .thanks for your review .
I found Marion through childcare.co.uk and from the first time we met I knew we would get along just fine. My daughter was just starting school and we were looking for a childminder. What convinced me further was that my daughter and Marion got along so well even from the first meet, Marion has an ease about her that makes you feel confident that your child will be well taken care of. My daughter absolutely loves going to Marion's and has never complained about being there. I will recommend Marion's service to anyone who is looking for a first class childminding service. Tola

Marion has been looking after my wee girl for a few weeks now and I really couldnt be happier. I immediately felt at ease with Marion and knew that she could be trusted with Holly. I was right. Holly has really taken to Marion and loves going to her house to play with other children or when Marion comes to ours of an evening. Reliable, Professional, Pleasant, Helpful, Trustworthy, Fun.... what more can I say? Everything that you could want in someone to look after your precious wee one. If youre looking for childcare you couldn't do better ?

Thanks Stewart I love looking after your daughter she is such a lovely girl and a pleasure to look after. Thanks you for using my services. Marion
We have used Marion on a number of occasions for babysitting and some adhoc childminding during the school holidays.
Marion is professional, reliable and punctual. We have felt reassured leaving our daughter with Marion given her extensive experience as a childminder and a mother.
Importantly she connected extremely well with our daughter (who technically should have been asleep when we went out!) taking the time and consideration to bring a new bedtime book as a gift which we thought was a lovely touch.
When we are out Marion drops a text to let us know all is well and on returning takes time to chat to us about our evening which given she has been out for hours after a day of childminding says it all. Her rates are reasonable and the service exceptional.
The childminding days our daughter has spent with Marion she has enjoyed a home that offers all the toys, games and outdoor space you would expect to ensure a busy and fun filled day.
Thanks Marion and apologises for the late review!

Thank you for taking the time to review my service it means so much to me to know how much you trust me with your lite treasure. It is my pleasure to take care of him .thanks Marion x
Both of my children are looked after by Marion. My daughter has been going to Marion for over 5 years now and even although she is just before and after school now, she still loves going to Marion's as she gets to bake and do lots of crafts which she brings home with a big smile on her face. My son is 18 months old and has being going to Marion's for around 8/9 months now and he has never once been upset at getting left, which is an amazing thing and reassures you massively when returning to work. He loves going to the toddlers group and soft play with Marion and also loves all the crafts. They also both love playing in the garden in the summer as there are so many great toys for the children to play with including a lovely little wooden playhouse. It really feels like the children are part of the family whilst at Marion's, so much so that my daughter and Marion's grandson are great friends! My son also adores John, Marion's husband and always seeks him out if he is home to hug and kiss goodbye! I couldn't recommend Marion enough as I know my children are safe and well looked after in her care.

Thanks Jill the girls were lovely it means a lot to me to get the review thanks Marion .
My wee boy has been with Marion for around 5 months now and before he started I was worried that he would struggle to settle but he and Marion have fitted in together well and I can confidently go to work now and know that he is safe and happy. Despite the fact that he was 21 months Innes wasn't walking and medical staff had started to raise concerns about him. Marion made an effort to look into this and spent an entire day encouraging him playing games and practising with him and when I got home from work he was starting to take his first proper steps (all recorded on video for us) and that was the start of him finally finding his feet. His daddy and I are very grateful for her help and would highly recommend her service

Our 2 year old has been going to Marion's for over a month and she absolutely loves it. She talks about going all week. Marion has a lovely house and a wide selection of toys to play with. She offers a varied routine and our daughter always returns home well kept and happy. She often brings things she has made too which is a lovely personal touch. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Marion to anyone looking for a home from home childminding service.

HI Caiters thanks for the review Holly is a lovely little Girl to look after she gets on well with the other children and loves playing in the play house thanks Marion.
Marion has been looking after my little girl for 3 days a week for the past year, I'm extremely happy with her service. Ella enjoys going to Marions and speaks fondly of the other children under her care. Ella often comes home with crafty pictures, cards and paintings and cakes. Marion has a lovely garden with a beautiful Wendy house which the children enjoy playing with in the summer time. Marion also takes Ella to Toddlers, trips and soft play on a regular basis which my daughter loves. She has also been very supportive and helped potty train my 2 year old this past month. I would not hesitate to recommend Marion as a child minder at all.

Thanks Amy for your review I enjoy looking after Ella as she is a lovely little girl to look after thanks Marion xx
We have been sending our little girl to Marion for three months now - she was only eight months when she started - and we couldn't be happier with how things are going. Marion is a fantastic childminder and our little one absolutely loves her, always full of big smiles when we drop her off. I can't recommend Marion highly enough, we couldn't have picked a better childminder.

Marion looks after both of my children every day. She is a fantastic childminder who does a great job with my children. They always go on lovely outings and the children always bring us home cakes or lovely pictures that they have made while in Marion's care.
The kids run into her house and are delighted to see her. I know my children are in safe and caring hands with Marion.

Thanks Anne and Hayden they are just lovely children to look after thanks Marion x
Marion has been childminder to my daughter for 2 and a half years now (my daughter was 11 months when she first started going to Marion's) and I can honestly say that I could not be happier entrusting my precious daughter to Marion on a daily basis. Marion treats my daughter like one of the family, so much so that my daughter asks when she is going to Marion's house.
Marion does lots of different activities and outings with the children and I always look forward to the days they have been baking! Marion was also a great help with all the transitional stages in my daughters development like potty training. I cannot recommend using Marion as a Childminder highly enough, as I feel my daughter has gained an extended family as well as a very trusted care giver.
