Carol

Fantastic Childminder!

My daughter settled really quickly into Carol's lovely warm and homely setting. Carol was amazing at setting up different activities for the children to do and we loved seeing the photos at the end of each day! We can't thank Carol enough for providing a rich and stimulating environment, just what our daughter needed! Thank you so much!

Thank you. I have loved looking after her and I wish you all the best.

Excellent

Carol has taken superb care of our daughter these last 18 months. Every day there would be something different happening with days out, walks, craft and imaginative play to name a few activities.
We loved the themed months and felt our daughter really thrived with the individual progress plans that kept us up to date with her next steps.
Our daughter has flourished at Carol's setting and misses them all terribly (I'm now on maternity leave, hence the end of our contract) which shows how happy and settled she was.
We cannot rate her highly enough.

Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We all miss her as well and it was lovely to catch up with you and the new baby the other day.

So happy - we came back again!

My eldest daughter attended Carol and Emma's fulltime from when she was 9 months old but when her sister was born, she had to leave after a year of attendance due to financial concerns.
However, it was clear she missed her friends, and Carol and Emma; she was always asking after them, and so I asked if it was possible for her to do a couple of days - and luckily Carol said yes.
When I made the decision to go back to work my only worry was if they had an extra space for my younger daughter and if they could both be fulltime - again they were able to accommodate me.
There is nowhere else I would want my children to go; the variety of activities is brilliant and you truly get a standard of care that you would provide yourself at home - you can go to work and have no worries at all that your children are safe and happy. In addition they eat healthily and have trips to various places including Finkley - a total well-rounded day every day.

Thank you, we were very happy to have your oldest come back to us and were very pleased when you asked us to look after both of them. We enjoy having them both here and have lots of fun together.

Can not fault....

My daughter who is 2 yrs old has been going to Carol and Emma's for 3 days a week since September 2012. I can honestly say that since she has been with them both there has been a great improvement in her knowledge. Carol and Emma carry out the Early Years with all children no matter what the age which it brilliant.

Best choice ever made for our daughter

Thank you, it has been a pleasure looking after her

Amazing

My two children have been attending Carol and Emma's for almost 5 years now. They have been incredibly happy there!
They always have a busy day full of adventurous and exciting planned activities.
It is always a difficult decision going to work with young children but it makes it that much easier knowing that they are looking forward to a great day ahead!
