Paula is absolutely wonderful and both my children love her! They are always so excited to see her and are so happy in her home. They are always busy learning, exploring, crafting and visiting places such as playgroups, legoland, sealife and parks for Autumn walks! My children have learned so much with Paula. I am amazed at how far they have come on in her care! She is so caring and patient with the children, always supporting them while encouraging their independence when they are ready.

Paula is so accommodating and has been so flexible with childcare arrangements, helping me out on so many occassions. The whole family are so lovely and my daughter regularly talks of how much fun she has with them. They are such a kind, caring family and it really is such a happy home. Knowing my children are in such a happy home surrounded by a loving and happy family has made returning to work so easy! It really is a home from home and I can't recommend Paula highly enough! I couldn't have asked for a better family to look after my children.

Paula has looked after my little girl for a few months now and I can’t believe how much she has come on with her speaking, eating, fine and gross motor skills! She absolutely loves it there. Paula is great with communicating on how your child is getting on throughout the day! She updates you with pictures which is so nice to see. She is always taking her to fun places like Lego land, sea life and play centres. Very professional and friendly would really recommend her!

Paula has looked after both my children for years… I couldn’t take my child anywhere else. I no when my child goes to Paula’s, she feels at home. My youngest started at 3 years old, when transitioning to school for morning and after school. I was so worried my little baby being tired (as I work long hours) Paula met her needs, she would come home after a short nap, and a rest, a snack of two.
Not to forget school holidays ! How many parents feel pure guilt because they’re working and other children get to play and explore with their families. Paula treats them like her own, they’re off to Lego land, the beach, the park ect. She will send little photos showing their smily faces and the mum guilt instantly leaves !
I’m dreading the day my youngest is to grown to need childcare !
I promise as a mum it’s all about the way your child is treated , and Paula supports them children in every way. I don’t no how she does it !

I cannot express how amazing Paula is at her job! She and her family have welcomed our 2 boys into their beautiful and loving home and surrounded them with a caring and nurturing environment above anything I had expected. Her passion for bringing out the best in children shows from day 1 - she constantly thrives to do what is best for them. She provides a varied and exciting curriculum and regularly takes the children out on trips to ignite their interest in learning and play. Her regular and clear communication means that I have every confidence in Paula meeting my child’s physical, emotional and learning needs. She provides delicious and healthy home cooked food and has clear systems in place to ensure that safeguarding practices are stringently followed. Paula and her family have had a tremendously positive part to play in bringing our boys up into kind, confident and sociable little humans. We cannot rate her highly enough.
