Our son has been in Lisa’s care for the last year and has loved every minute! Lisa is warm and welcoming and provides the perfect home from home environment.
Our son does a variety of activities with Lisa and goes for lovely days out with his friends ! Lisa updates us everyday with photos of what they have been up to and suggestions for things to practice at home in terms of learning. It always feels like Lisa understands our sons needs really well and is always looking to help
him in his learning.
It’s not hard to see why Lisa has an outstanding ofsted - we really can not recommend her more highly!

I started using Lisa when my son was 8 months old ... he is now 10. When my daughter was born there was no question about where she was going to go. Needless to say I value Lisa (and her family) immensely. Her care goes way beyond a job title. She provides a home from home for each of the children that she minding. My children are happy and confident in her company, in fact, they feel like it is their second home. I can not write enough words to recommend Lisa enough ... If I could give her 10 stars I would.

WOW thank you xxx I was so worried when the time was coming for your children to move on to primary school thinking i wouldnt be seeing them anymore, how wonderful it was to hear that you wanted me for all the school holidays :) They have been a part of our family for so long we cant imagine them not being here! We all love them so much, they are bright beautiful children that are a credit to you both. Even though thry arent here every day they come in during the holidays as if they have never been away. They mix in with everyone and are so kind, caring and sociable it makes my job a real pleasure. Dont ever take them away! :) xxx
My son has been going to Lisa’s before and after school 3 days a week for the last 18 months. He loves being with her and has made some excellent friends in the other children. Knowing children in other years has been great for his confidence in school. Lisa is an excellent child minder and provides lots of fun activities for the children. Her outside space is wonderful and great for the children to play in during good weather.

My daughter has been going to Lisa's for over a year now. Lisa is extremely helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble. She does a variety of activities with the children; a mixture of fun and educational both inside and outside the home and my daughter cannot wait to see her each morning and after school. The atmosphere at Lisa's house is always happy, relaxed and under control. Lisa has strong family values and I feel that her own children, who are polite and well behaved are a testament to the effectiveness of these values. I cannot recommend Lisa highly enough - as soon as you meet her you will instantly know she is the one to look after your child/children.

Thank you for your lovely review x From the moment i met your daughter i felt an instant connection. She is funny, confident and outgoing with a cheeky sense of humour. She makes me laugh out loud every day :) I love her smile and the twinkle in her eye, she is a credit to you both and we all love her to bits x x x
As soon as I visited Lisa I knew this is where I wanted our girl to be. Lisa is warm and welcoming and really takes pride in what she does. Her home is very child friendly and the garden is the kind of garden you wanted as a child. My daughter settled in really well; actually from the first few hours settling in session she told me she wanted to go back. Lisa does amazing activities with the children. I am so pleased we found Lisa if you have to have childcare then you should not look any further every family should have a Lisa in their lives. ?

My son started primary school in September and we were looking for a childminder to take and collect him from school three days a week. He settled really quickly with Lisa and has made good friends with the other children in her care. Lisa offers a lovely setting for children, plenty of toys to play with, a fantastic garden and engages the children in craft and fun educational activities. We are incredibly grateful to have found Lisa and would highly recommend her as a childminder.

I was looking for someone to look after my son Archie for a few weeks,he was 11/2 at the time.a friend gave me Lisa's number and told me to ring her,even if it was for some advice...that day was the best day of my life and I have never looked back.my son is very full on and demanding,I have to admit I was struggling to keep up with him and his demands.i rang Lisa to explain everything and also how I was feeling.i went to meet her with Archie at her home which was lovely as we met the other children to.lisa reassured me that I just needed a little help to take the weight off me as I felt awful for leaving him..he's never been happier and loves going there.he has a best friend there now who he talks about all the time.his talking,counting,colours and number are coming on leaps and bounds.lisa also sends me pictures of Archie through out the day just so I can keep up to date with what he's doing.they do so much that when he come home he's shattered,Lisa has also helped me and Archie with his potty training which was a struggle to start with but we both kepted going with it and he's been nappy free now for 2 months,he had his 2 year view not so long ago and he came up over average for his age,so I do owe a lot to Lisa for all her help,she's not just a good childminder,she became a very good friend and I couldn't thank her more..

Being a childminder for a full time shift worker is no easy job !!!! Lisa however has been my childminder for my two boys now for over 10 years and I can not recommend her highly enough. My boys have always been well cared for and love going to Lisa's where they enjoy the fun, activities and especially the outdoor space but are also supported with their studies and homework. My boys are treated like one of the family and it means that I can concentrate at work knowing that I don't have to worry about the boys. I also consider Lisa as a friend and someone I can discuss any concerns I have regarding my children. I know that my boys are reaching that age (and have probably past that age!!) when they can look after themselves but they still love going to Lisa's and I will be delaying the inevitable for as long as possible. Definatley not just a childminder but a second Mum and a home from home.

Lisa has been our childminder for the last five years, after she was recommended by many of our friends and teaching colleagues. She originally cared for our daughter, for one day a week, until she started school and currently has our three year old son, who has been with her since he was six months old.
we have always been extremely pleased and impressed with the level of care Lisa provides and both of our children have always loved their 'Lisa days'! This is due to the range and quality of activities that Lisa offers and her kind and caring nature. Lisa is very flexible and has always tried to have the children for additional days if needed to ensure continuity of care and is always reliable.
Both of our children have benefited from forming strong friendships, due to the small numbers of children in Lisa's care, and she and her family ensure that they feel comfortable in her home setting, with all members of her family. Our children have always walked straight in to Lisa's home with no qualms and obviously thoroughly enjoy the time they spend there.
Lisa frequently visits Playgroups with the children in her care and we love to see the many art and craft activities that they bring home from these groups. Our son has benefited from extending his learning experiences in a variety of settings with Lisa, including the fabulous outside area of her garden and local woodland.
Lisa has always ensured that we are fully informed about our children's progress in relation to the EYFS criteria and we always enjoy bringing their books and folders home to see what milestones they have met, and their future targets. It is lovely to see the many photographs that document the children's experiences and their ability in different areas of the EYFS curriculum.
We would very happily recommend Lisa to anyone looking for a childminder...and have done so in the past! She is fabulous with both the children and their parents and we love her enthusiasm and obvious enjoyment of spending time with the children in her care!

My eldest Daughter began going to Lisa after school this year and we quickly went from 1 to 2 days as she enjoys it so much and it's reassuring to know she is somewhere she feels comfortable like a home from home! After looking into what Lisa offers for age 2 to preschool, we have decided to send our youngest as of September for 3 full days instead of the nursery we did have her booked into...having spent a a couple hours at the house with a few of the younger children, I can see how wonderful Lisa is with them and her outstanding offsted report confirms this! The house is the perfect environment, safe warm and welcoming. The garden offers an amazing outdoor space with lots to see and do! Lisa's teenage son and husband also get involved when at home which is wonderful, creating a real family atmosphere.
A childminder plays a really important part in bringing our children up and Lisa is just perfect for that role...an overall amazing, kind and dedicated woman!
