Mandy is a wonderful natural childminder with our daughter. She has been in her setting for a year and a half and she loves it.
Mandy puts thought and energy into all the activities she does with the children and we are very lucky to receive daily pictures and updates. We love that they go out every day together with the other children.
She is wonderfully caring and they have a special bond. We would highly recommend Mandy as a childminder.

Our daughter (16 months) has been with Mandy for five months so far, and we feel so lucky and happy with the care she receives. Though she found the initial settling away from us a little difficult, something which Mandy really helped us all through, our daugher instantly warmed to Mandy and felt comfortable in her home nursery - as did we.
Mandy plans a wide range of different activities both in and out of her home. They all go out almost every morning, whether to local playgrounds, to explore nature, or some other carefully chosen trips out. At home they do a range of activities, including crafts/art, music, books, etc, and always with a view to the children learning in a fun and varied way. Our daughter learns so much in Mandy's setting, and we love receiving updates on what she's been doing that day, and always feel confident she's being well looked-after, in and out of the home.
Mandy gives the children a really varied and healthy range of home-cooked meals and snacks, with a different menu daily and changing each week. Our daughter is a very happy eater!
Mandy is diligent, thorough, and very professional - but with the children she is warm, fun, and manages any behaviour issues kindly and calmly. Her communication with us is caring and clear. We trust her completely and feel incredibly lucky to have her as our daughter's childminder. We already worry about what we'll do for a future-hypothetical second child, if Mandy might not be available!

My daughter has been with Mandy for a year now and we could not be happier.
Mandy is caring, kind and my daughter really loves going in. Since she started she settled in so well. Mandy takes her and the other children out to all the parks in the area, letting the explore nature and surroundings which is really important to us. She also takes them to baby groups allowing them to interact with lots of other children to aid their development.
Mandy offers a varied diet and my daughter always eats everything provided! Mandy is well organised and my child's development is of the upmost importance to her.
We are really lucky to have found someone so close to home!

Mandy has been looking after our daughter Lily since I have gone back to work from maternity leave. From the moment we walked into Mandy's setting we felt it was a spotlessly clean, calm environment and lovely setting for our daughter to spend time in.
Mandy is a very caring person and Lily has grown fond of her since starting in her setting. She is thoughtful and has paid attention to Lily's needs and unique personality - such as noticing how she is very affectionate and needs extra cuddles for encouragement, and how she can be settled by watching what Mandy is cooking! She has also been an excellent communicator with me and is always reachable during the day.
Mandy provides a healthy variety of food which she conscientiously logs so that I can see how Lily has faired each day, and equally this gives me ideas of what to cook Lily when I need inspiration.
I can see that Mandy takes joy from watching Lily progress and she clearly loves children. We are really happy with how Lily is progressing at Mandy's and couldn't recommend her enough.

Mandy’s setting is lovely and calm and my daughter really enjoys her days there. Mandy is very kind and caring and my daughter has settled in really well since I’ve returned to work. I feel happy in the knowledge she is being well looked after in a home setting.
Mandy is easy to talk to and is giving my daughter lovely healthy diverse foods which she is loving! Highly recommend. Louise

My baby usually cries out when she sees a stranger, however, ONLY when she saw Mandy for the first time, she had a big smile on her face. Mandy is very patient with a caring heart, I will recommend her to everyone!
