I am a professionally trained montessori early years educator and have worked in montessori and non montessori nurseries. I have also worked for 9 years as a private nanny. I have been a registered childminder for 8 years and received 'good' on my first OFSTED inspection. I have a large bright playroom opening on to a large safe and secluded garden. Our daily activities include going to playgroups, painting, collage, baking, puzzles and lots of creative play including songs and music. We are lucky to live near a large park and numerous open spaces and take daily walks, together with visiting appropriate playgroups. I can do school and nursery drop off and collections from some local schools. I am prepared to be flexible and will be hapoy to discuss your individual requirements.

Both my sons have been with Hannah. One since 18 months and the other in the holidays and after school pick up since the age of 4. Both settled really well enjoying all the activities Hannah does in the home from home environment. Having used nursery schools previously I would highly recommend this childminder service and wouldn’t think twice to return to a nursery setting. As a parent Hannah has kept us informed and updated and makes you feel at ease. She is flexible and approachable. My two have always been happy at drop off and pick up. I would highly recommend Hannah’s hedgehog’s.

Hannah was my son’s childminder for 2 years. My son started childcare with Hannah when I first went back to work. We had recently moved into the area and I was starting a new job. What could have been a really stressful and emotional time for me, was made so much easier by Hannah. I knew that he received as many kisses and cuddles from Hannah as he did when he was at home with me. Hannah joins forces with other childminders for play dates so this really boosts their interaction and social skills. Additionally, she would take my son to a playgroup where he would sing songs etc. Hannah was very flexible with my working arrangements and I’m very grateful for that. My son loved his time with her and it is only due to him starting nursery that he will no longer be attending.

Hannah has cared for my 11month old son for 2 months now and I will definitely want him to continue for a long time yet! Hannah has made the whole process of returning to work and leaving my son with a childminder a very positive experience. I have seen my son grow in confidence around adults, children, situations and environments. She has nurtured him by taking him to 2 playgroups per week, arranging playdates, organising craft activities, going for walks with her lovely dog and spending time at the park. I value Hannah's time spent with my son. He is very happy to go to Hannah's house which is a lovely setting for young children to play and grow. He loves playing with different toys from home and being around other children and of course woth Hannah! Hannah makes hand-over time very easy. I would definitly recommend her.

My 18 month son has been going to Hannah's since Sept 2017 and he loves going each week. Hannah does many activities during the week including walks out, going to play groups and painting and arts at home. Her home is a lovely setting for children.
Hannah keeps me updated with how his day has been and sends through photos of what he has been up to.
I would highly recommend Hannah to anyone looking for a childminder.

Hannah has looked after both of my children, my son for 6 months until he started preschool and my 2yr old daughter who is still going to Hannah. Both kids have enjoyed going to Hannah's where previously at nursery they both cried at drop off. Hannah has been able to give more focused care to the children, doing more 1 on 1 activities such as writing skills for my 4 year old and providing a calmer 'home from home' for my daughter. Both children have flourished in her care and I'd recommend Hannah without hesitation
