Great childminder

Reviewed

My 11 month old daughter has been with Celma 3 days a week for about 6 weeks now and she already really enjoys her days and is learning so much. I was nervous about returning to work, but Celma made it easy. She is great at reassuring me by sending me messages in the day to let me know how my daughter is getting on.

I knew when I first visited Celma that it was the right place for me daughter. The house is very clean and well organised, and most of the house (and garden) are used, so the children are not cooped up in one room. The babies have a lovely play room and then a separate room with cots in it for naps. They all seem very comfortable and at home in the house.

Celma has 3 assistants working with her. All of them are friendly, fun and excellent with the children. They are all caring towards the children and clearly love working with them. Celma and her assistants are all full of energy too, and they go out every day on visits to the park or playgroup. Celma makes a home-cooked lunch every day, and there are plenty of healthy snacks for the children.

Because Celma has assistants working with her she is able to take care of more children than some childminders, so they get to socialise with lots of other children, while also having the benefit of lots of one-on-one attention and personalised care. This is a very happy and nurturing environment and I would definitely recommend Celma to anyone looking for a childminder in the area.
