We are so thankful that we came across Gina on this website! Choosing her to care for our daughter was the best decision we ever made. You only have to look at all the photos she has in her home of all the children she has cared for to know that she adores them.
Gina always welcomes us with smiles, warmth and positivity and is genuinely such a kind and happy person who has welcomed Marlowe into her family home. It's the best feeling to be able to leave your child with someone you trust and not even question if they are happy, safe and being properly cared for.
When Marlowe knows it's her day to see Gina her face lights up and she starts naming the whole family (Dan, Connie, Grace & Dave the dog), which is testament to how Gina and her family have created a home from home for the children in their care.
A few other important things to note:
Gina is a great communicator. She keeps us updated with beautiful photos and texts when needed.
She has a fantastic outdoor area with great provision.
She plans brilliant activities week after week - welly walks, cooking, arts & crafts, water play, small world - the list goes on!

My little tot (3 and a half) started with Gina a few months ago. Gina is always friendly, happy and outgoing it is evident when you arrive that all the children simply love her, including Connor. He was very shy and reserved, but she has managed to make his confidence shine over the weeks to the point where I have had many comments on the amazing change in him.
Gina keeps us updated on their routines, playtime and activities with photos and feedback. Connors always coming home with special crafts he’s very proud of. She is flexible, hardworking and makes you feel part of her little family.
If you’re looking for someone to entrust you precious bundle with, I cannot recommend this lady more, she is simply made to work with children and I commend her on a fantastic job.

Gina has looked after my 2 boys since they were babies (5 and 3 now). The moment Gina opened the door to me on the day we met, I knew within 3 seconds she would look after and love my babies.
Both my boys are clinging but I’ve never felt sad handing them over to Gina, because I know they’ll have heaps of fun and be loved.
I can’t thank Gina, Dan, Connie, Grace enough for making my boys and I feel like family. I wanted my boys to be cared for in a loving home environment which is exactly what Gina offers.

My son has been going to Ginas since he was 9 months old and he's now 3.
Gina is a fantastic childminder who generally cares about you're children and their welfare.
My son can be very clingy on occasions and sometimes needs extra attention when i first drop him off.... she's deals with this really well and I never feel worried about leaving him.
Cheeky Monkeys, the group that Gina runs is a great group for the children , its gives them space to play, learn and mix with other children.
Gina gives you regular updates via photos to you personally and the app little Footprints which Gina uses, shows you you're child's progress and photos of you're child doing activities.
I would never hesitate to recommend Gina she is fantastic childminder and a my son adores her.

My daughter has been going to Gina for the last one and a half years. She has welcomed me and my daughter with open arms in to her home. My daughter Settled in very quickly and well. Gina Is very good with her as my daughter can be a little handful at times. I’m very great full for that. As a working mother I can Rely and trust her that my daughter is in good had. My daughter school morning starts with “are we going to Gina’s”. Gina is very Flexible with overtime if I need my daughter to be with her extra hour’ she is happy to help. She is a very kind and caring person I can see that Through her work.

My daughter has been going to Gina’s since she was 6 months old and 3 years later she still loves going. Everyday she’ll always come home telling me about her day and they’re always doing something everyday.
Gina will send me photos throughout the day so I don’t get to miss out.
Highly recommend Gina to anyone - she’s caring, reliable and overall all the kids love her!
My daughter will continue going for many more years!

Being a first time mother returning to work was a daunting prospect on top of which I had to consider childcare and all the many options.
Having looked at most nurseries in the area, I never felt confident in the knowledge that I would be leaving my daughter there all day.
A family friend recommended Gina to us and I can remember the first time my husband and I met her. I was completely put at ease and upon seeing the other children in Gina's care and home setting and how happy and contented they were, made our decision easy.
Gina simply nutures our daughter and is always looking at ways to assist her with her development but in a fun, relaxed way. She has taught her some baby sign and recently purchased some flashcards to build upon this. Also having noticed our daughter's fondness of dolls, bought her one to play with to develop her caring, nuturing side.
Gina will often send photos and videos during the day of what our daughter has been up to, which really helped when I returned to work, and sends her home with all the creative bits and bobs she has made, which now cover our living room.
Our daughter's social skills have flourished since being with Gina as Gina will take her out and about, walking everywhere, in to town and even in the train to Brighton. Having seen Gina in town, I am amazed at how well behaved all the children are, they do not run about and listen to her.
To this day our daughter loves going to Gina's and is so excited when the car pulls up outside, she honestly can't wait to get out of the car.
This is why I have no hesitation in recommending Gina to you as a childminder.

My two sons have been going to Gina's four days a week now for 18 months with my youngest son being just 5.5 months when he started. I can honestly say my sons LOVE Gina, her husband and their two lovely daughters like they were part of their own family. They are always really happy to go there which I believe is due to Gina's enthusiasm and loving nature which is totally natural and not put on for the parents' benefit. The boys have learnt so much with Gina and some days I am so surprised at the things they know which they have obviously learnt when with Gina.
The activities the boys enjoy with her are as follows: Cheeky Monkey's (childminder group which Gina runs), going to the park, the library, art work, nature scavenger hunts, paddling pool, trampoline, cooking, puddle jumping, walks, going to meet Dot Dot (Gina's mum) who the boys also love, my youngest also plays a spot of golf with Gina's husband which has definitely been my bargaining tool in getting him out of the door in the morning when he won't put his shoes on!
Gina's EYFS folders are wonderful and we really enjoy reading these at regular intervals seeing what the boys have been up to with the various projects they work on at Cheeky Monkeys. We especially love the section at the back of the folders which quote some of the funny or interesting things the boys have said.
Gina is great at capturing important moments on video or photo and will always WhatsApp them over to us so we don't miss them.
All in all I would thoroughly recommend Gina and so would my boys. They really do love her and her them.

Gina has looked after to our 2 children( 2.5yrs and 4.5yrs )for nearly 4 years. Throughout that time she has always been warm and welcoming and sensitive to their needs. She always has something different planned for them and goes over and above what is required to ensure they have a lovely day each time they are with her. Our two have always run in to see her every morning and come away with big smiles at the end of the day. She is conscientious and committed and I would highly recommend her. She is an excellent childminder and we consider ourselves very lucky that we found her.
