I cannot speak highly enough of Emma. My daughter started with her when she was 9 months old, and since then she has learnt to crawl, walk and has started to talk. From the moment we met Emma, her warm and welcoming demeanor put us at ease. She has created a nurturing and stimulating environment that feels like a second home to our daughter. Emma takes time to understand each and every child's unique needs and personality and tailors activities to suit all. Our daughter thrived under Emma's care, thanks to the engaging and educational activities they provide. From arts and crafts to outdoor play and educational games, there's always something fun and enriching happening. We receive photos and updates every day when our daughter is in Emma's care which we really appreciate and gives us a little pick-me-up throughout our working days. The environment is always impeccably clean and safe.
We will continue to use Emma for our daughter and any other children we have in the future!

Would highly recommend emma and Sophie at little wildflowers. My little boy has been going since April and he absolutely loved it! I love that they provide day updates on how my little one is doing and what he's been up to throughout the day. The service feels so personal and they really get to know and care for each child. The activities they do each day are great and they also do little trip out to parks ect.
We now have to move on due to change in circumstances for us but we will miss Emma, Sophie and the kids a LOT and are absolutely gutted we are leaving. Without a shadow of a doubt we would pick little wildflowers over and over again! Thank you so much for taking such good care of our little boy and for taken such good care of us!

My little boy has been attending childcare with Emma for a few months now, and he has really settled in well! It took a good few months for us to find a childminder we felt comfortable with, and I can safely say we made the right decision choosing Emma. Everyday is full of fun filled activities and trips out to the park as well as different playgroups and my little boy loves it! Emma is patient, caring and very attentive to the children's needs. I love the fact Emma updates me daily on how my little boy is doing and it's really nice to recieve photos of the activities he's doing. The nursery room is very modern and clean and welcoming! I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a childminder.

Emma has been great with my daughter, she settled into the setting very quickly and she loves going there, sometimes she doesn't want to leave at pickup time! Emma is lovely and welcoming and always sends updates and photos throughout the day of the different activities/places they visit. I would highly recommend Emma.

Emma is an amazing child minder, she loves all the children and treats them like one of her own.. my daughter loves going and asks me everyday to go to Ems!! She is brilliant at keeping us updated and sending us pictures. The children are kept busy with learning and having fun all day. Emma pretty much takes them somewhere everyday i.e. different playgroups, parks, farm etc. She's very welcoming and you become part of her family. I would highly recommend Emma if your looking for your little one.

My little one is with Emma for about 5 months now (started when he was 18 months old) and he absolutly adores her and loves her garden 😁 She has lovely setting at home and garden for kids.
Emma is great with kids! She keeps them entertained, takes them pretty much every day to different playgroups, sometimes to the farm with animals. She's very welcoming and open. Great communication with Emma, sends me daily updates and pictures.
My little one loves going there and keeps calling Emma's name when he's at home.
I highly recommend Emma 🤗🤗

My LO has settled amazingly into Emma's setting. She's always got something going on for the kids whether that's at home or out at the local groups. Her home is so welcoming and is everything you can ask for
