Ro has been our Childminder since Mar 14. I was very nervous about finding childcare and returning to work but I was instantly reassured by Ro's caring and professional approach. Right from the start she made our daughter feel comfortable and safe; she has never been upset to be left in Ro's care, quite the reverse, she is always excited as we arrive at the door and definitely makes herself at home.

Every day Ro provides us with a summary of our daughter's day with details of her eating, sleeping, their activities throughout the day and any achievements. I love getting home and picking up her book to see what she's been up to anyhow she's doing.

The children enjoy a variety of activities such as singing and painting, and Ro also provides a variety of toys, both educational and creative play. There is something different out every day and I love that our daughter gets such a variety in her day; sometimes it's learning with blocks or Stickle Bricks, other times it's imaginative play with the dolls or toy kitchen.

I have always been impressed by the manners and behaviour of Ro's own boys and she has ensured the same standards with our daughter; I am very keen to ensure she learns good behaviour and manners so this is really positive.

Overall the thing I have always been most impressed with is that Ro's whole focus is on the care and development of the children she minds (and obviously her own family!).
