Vera is an amazing childminder for our 1 year old little girl. She’s been in her setting since last September and has developed in leaps and bounds since then. Since starting with Vera our little one has started saying lots of words and her physical development has also improved. Vera makes what look like delicious meals and our daughter really enjoys eating there (more than she does at home!).

We can see just how much Vera cares about our daughter and wants to see her thrive. She encourages her to be independent and supports her learning well. She sends us photos daily, updates us on her progress and tells us where we could aid her development more. The children do lots of structured activities like painting, colouring, singing songs, story time etc.

Our toddler gets on well with Vera’s family and it’s clear they treat her like one of their own.

Communication wise, I don’t agree with the negative review. Vera set our her policies clearly from the start and always goes above and beyond to be accommodating, kind and professional when we forget about them. She even responds to out of hours messages. Vera is a lovely, caring and helpful person and our daughter loves her and gets on well with the other children in her care.
