Our little boy has been going to Alison's for 10 months and has hugely benefitted from her care and attention. Alison puts so much effort into all aspects of childminding - fun and educational activities are planned for every day. These are all recorded and fed back to parents regularly. Alison really brings your child on and we can see all the skills our son has developed with her reflected at home. Good communication means we can build on these at home. Alison has been flexible to our needs, also providing ad hoc care for our older son, again with excellent activities and ideas to keep him engaged. Above all Alison really cares about the children and puts them at the centre of her work and this loving care really shines through. We highly recommend her, and our third child will be joining her soon too!
