Amanda Payton was recommended to us by a friend when I was still pregnant with our little girl. Shortly before I had to go back to work I contacted Mandy to meet her. We had an immediate connection and I felt at ease from the moment I met her. She has a very forthcoming manner and a way to make any person feel welcome and at home. My little girl has been happy at giggles childcare from her first day. I believe there have been more tears when picking her up (not wanting to leave) than when dropping her off.

Both my husband and I feel that Mandy not only does a good job but goes above and beyond. Mandy is the one who picked up that our daughter was hypermobile and immediately started looking into ways to help and support her.

The resources that Mandy uses with the children is age appropriate and extensive. She always endeavours to keep them busy in a constructive, educational manner and always keeps all parents up-to-date with development and change.

I would recommend Mandy time and time again to any parent looking for a reliable, trustworthy, dedicated and passionate childminder. The children come first in everything and this is evident also in the way she treats her own children.

I have the greatest respect for Mandy and am so grateful that we found her.
