Kim took care of my 5 years old son and did school runs for us, which was just what we wanted in our childminder. the service Kim provided was great and can't complain about anything. We left because we would have more time home but will definitely return to her as she made us and son feel so welcome and comfortable.
There was always sufficient notice when she had to deal with her personal stuff.

We were blessed to have Kim as our child care professional for 3 years. We took Amelia to visit Kim and her lovely family when Amelia was just 6 months old, from that day onwards Amelia was cared for, nurtured and loved by Kim. We can not fault the level of care she gave to Amelia, Kim has aided her development tremendously and we will be forever thankful.

Collected my son from juniors Monday - Friday, and had him on any teachers training day. 100% guarantee the services, meals are good for the children with a wide selection too. My son was really sad when he left due to going to secondary school, but I know that if I had to turn to this family again there wouldnt be a problem. Highly recommend. Treats all children the same, plenty to do in the house and outdoors. If you select this family wouldnt find a fault in anyway.
