Melina is a great childminder who has looked after my 2 children (Daniella - 9yrs and Isabella - 5yrs) for over 6yrs now. She is absolutely brilliant with them. One of the many great things about Melina is how she is with my children and also how they are with her, they absolutely love her and call her Aunty. She is very organised and provides a very safe environment for the kids. Melina works with the parents to ensure she understands the needs of the children and helps them in their journey from babies to toddlers, to pre-school, primary school, etc. She follows the early learning curriculum and monitors the progress of each child to ensure they are on the right path. She reads with them, takes them to playgroups, etc. She also provides constructive feedback for each child in her care. She is very reliable and extremely patient with the children. Unfortunately we have now moved away from the area and sincerely wish we could take her with us. My children still ask after her from time to time, especially Isabella (who she looked after as a baby) and insists on the occasional visit when we can because they miss her. Our experience with Melina and her family is an experience we will cherish because my children were very happy in her care.
