About Me
Hi, my name is Charlotte an Ofsted registered childminder graded good in all levels. I ran the setting with my husband Paul who is equally fully qualified Ofsted childminder graded good in our last inspection. We operate from our 4-bed house near L&D Hospital.
We have been blessed with 5 wonderful children all fully grown and independent and 2 lovely grandchildren. We have over 30 years of parenting and a great deal of experience when it comes to children and teenage culture and behaviour. We are both fun-loving, tolerant and patient with children
Our whole living and dining room including the conservatory is converted to a learning and playing area to offer plenty of living space for your little ones. We also have an outdoor playing area for their daily exercise. A 2-course meal is cooked daily for the children and includes daily fruit salads for snacks to keep them healthy and energised all day. Our vision is simply to work with you in parenting together.

My daughter has attended different settings, and I can say confidently that Mama Char is the best. When we first moved to Luton I was nervous about finding the right setting for my daughter which would offer me the flexibility I needed for my job. Mama Char and her team at Parents Heart gave me all that and more. The setting is warm and welcoming. The children get lots of opportunities to play outside, which is great as my daughter loves the outdoors. We have so many fond memories here.
The way she celebrates the every one of the children....they are stars to her.
As a first time Mum, she always has the best words of encouragement for me. My daughter attending Parents Heart has impacted my family in so many wonderful ways. I cannot recommend Mama Char and her team enough, they are indeed the best.

Thank you very much … I’m proud to have your daughter 🥰
My son is 14 months and has been going to Mama Char for 6 months and I have seen great progress in his development. Mama Char is warming and provides a professional setting. I am throughly kept up to date with my son’s progress. The children have a good routine and I can my son has valued from going to Mama Char, would highly recommend.

Thank you Georgia for appreciating the services we are providing to you and other parents. Your son is an absolute darling of the house and we strive to work together to achieve the utmost best in these little ones. Thank you once again for your appreciation.

I have sent my son to parents heart day care since he was 6 months old and he has loved every moment there!
The service is incredible, Charlotte and her team go above and beyond to help with the children’s developmental skills as well as encouraging them to be independent and sociable with others. She keeps me updated regularly with my sons progress and milestones and I have never felt dissatisfied with the service. My son absolutely adores Charlotte and I’m so thankful that I found her as I know my son is in safe and genuinely caring hands. She had a natural way with all of the children there and I couldn’t imagine my son going to any other child care provider! Keep doing what you do Mama Char we love you!

My husband and I were anxious at first about leaving our 11-month-old son in the hands of a total stranger. However, the narrative changed when we discovered Parents Heart Childcare (Mamachar). We were really impressed on our first visit to Parent Heart, and without a doubt, we knew our son would fit in properly. The setting and environment were excellent, and the tour around the house was amazing. The cleanliness is top-notch, child-friendly, beautiful garden with lots of activity tools and toys for children, well-organised timetable and routines for the kids. Mrs. Charlotte and Mr. Williams provided an exceptionally warm and friendly welcome; they demonstrated excellent and essential skills as perfect minders should and answered all questions accordingly, as well as reassuring us that our 1-year-old son would adjust and settle-in just in time. My son, now 20 months old, always looks forward to going to Mamachar and has tremendously developed both cognitively and socially. I would recommend Parents Heart Childcare to any parent who is anxious and looking for a trustworthy and professional childcare provider.

My son absolutely love Mrs Charlotte. Even though we have moved out of Luton, he still asked to go to Mrs Charlotte. He was well cared for and had lots of fun at Parents hearts. Thank you mamachar
