We'd absolutely recommend Laura and her setting. Our children have been with Laura for about 4 and a half years! We have two little girls, Rose has been there since she was 2 and Mia was about 9 months old.
Nothing seems too much for Laura as more often then not she's helped us out with all kinds of things - from me forgetting violins (and her actually taking it into school for me) to me coming home late from work and her bathing the kids post nappy accidents.
She's got great toys (inside and outside).
Happy to take any calls if you want to discuss in more detail (Laura can give you our number if you're interested).

Laura has been childminding my daughter on a full time basis after school for the past 10 months and has been fantastic.
We discovered Laura on this website when looking for a childminder as my daughter started school at Wickham Common. Laura's profile perfectly reflects her setting and care for children.
Laura has played a huge part in my daughter settling so well at school in year R and has been so flexible and helpful. Her experience really shows and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to not only look after but care for their children.
We are really sad to be leaving Laura but we are relocating out of the area. I only hope I can find someone to fill her shoes half as well!

Overall
Our son has been with Laura since 2010 ( 9 months old).
I came across Laura's profile on Childcare.co.uk and instantly took a liking to her description about herself and home set up.
Upon meeting Laura and her family, I knew very quickly that she had a lovely manner with the children, and came highly recommended by the families of children she had looked after before. With so many positive and heartfelt references in her portfolio it made our decision very easy.
Laura has always been kind, calm and patient with the children.
She has maintained the same values we would do at home, which meant our son was always comfortable and happy and knew when he was misbehaving the naughty step was used for time out/ reflection. The children would learn to apologise and learn to respect one another.
Come rain or shine Laura walks to and from school with the children which is lovely knowing that the children get used to walking nicely, with road awareness and not dependent on push chairs after the age of 3.
Since we began using Laura, we have always maintained we made the right decision, and it is only through our choice of primary school that we are sad to have to leave Laura.
We would recommend Laura wholeheartedly.
