There is so much great stuff i could say about how our son (18 months) has settled into Carol's Childminding. But the main thing i take comfort from is that it feels like he is part of an extended family. Carol is a huge part of our son's life and it is so clear he feels safe, happy and secure with her, and that he has also really bonded with her own family and the other children in her care. He is loved and looked after, and has so much fun. And that is why I feel comfortable going to work every day.

This is the first time we have left our son with a childminder and from the first day have felt completely relaxed about leaving him, he is always happy when he turns up and I can tell he loves being there.
Carol is an absolutely amazing child care provider and I would recommend her to anyone.

Our son has been going to Carol's since he started school at five (now seven) and he has really enjoyed going and made good friends. We felt confident in Carol from the start of his time there. She communicates well, is very flexible and she has a professional approach.
We had no hesitation in asking Carol to care for our second son from when he was one. Carol is very conscious of safety and we trust her completely. Carol understands child development and the written reports that she produces are very informative and thorough. She seeks out ways to develop his skills and help him progress though play activities and singing etc.
We are so glad that we found Carol to care for our children! Not only are they safe and well cared for but they have a lot of fun and opportunities to be creative.
We would recommend Carol to anyone looking for a childminder.
