Leighann is amazing! Our son Max was with Leighann 2 days a week from about 9 months to 4 years old when he started school. Leighann is extremely organised, excellent communication, loving and caring with the children and keeps them very well entertained. Max always loved going to Leighann's and we look forward to still seeing Leighann in the school holidays. We miss not seeing her every week. I would highly recommend Leighann!

I knew Leighann was the right person to care for my son immediately on her opening the door to us. Interestingly I had been very hesitant about using a child minder over a nursery and nearly cancelled the appointment to meet her, but i’m so glad I didn't! My son has always happily gone to her, often barely turning back to say bye to me as he runs inside to find his friends. Leighann genuinely cares for the children and takes them out daily to local groups and classes (pre covid). I really can't fault her. Just little things that keeps you assured, for example she always has her front door double bolted for safety, he always comes home immaculate rarely needing a change of clothes (unlike under my watch!), and is always well napped and fed.

Leighann looked after my little girl from when she was 13 months to 3 years old and was absolutely fantastic. My daughter loved going to her house and Leighann really cares for all the children as if they were her own. We met a few childminders and as soon as I met Leighann I knew she was the one as she instantly put me at ease with her friendliness, knowledge and experience. Since we have no longer needed a childminder my daughter regularly asks when she’s going back to Leighann’s house and genuinely misses her - the biggest sign of how much she enjoyed being there. I would not hesitate to recommend Leighann to anyone needing a childminder.

Leighann has looked after our little boy since he was almost 6 months old and has become an integral part of his and our life. His face lights up when we approach her house and he's always happy to be there. Leaving your baby with someone is so difficult and a tough decision to make but Leighann really helped us along the way and made me feel comfortable and reassured. She's always there with advice if asked for and will follow your wishes to the letter. I can't speak highly enough of Leighann and the care she provides, any child would be lucky to have her as their childminder!

I can highly recommend Leighann to anyone who is looking for a child minder. Leighann has looked after my daughter since I returned to work in 2015. I have always felt comfortable leaving my daughter with Leighann, she has a very strong relationship with all the children in her care and my daughter is always happy to go. She enjoys playing with the other children and going out in the community. My daughter has developed quickly during her time with Leighann through reinforcement of the learning at preschool and at home. It is clear how and why Leighann received her outstanding Ofsted report. I would not hesitate in recommending Leighann to a friend, and I would use her again if I had another child.

I don’t think I have ever gone online to write a review about anything – so forgive me if I don’t cover everything or come across as gushy! We are moving to Singapore, and one of the hardest part of this decision was telling our childminder. Once I had a baby, I was initially unsure if I wanted to return to work, and if did, what I would do with my little girl whilst I was there. Then I bumped into Leighann at a library, and suddenly things started to fall into place. Leighann and her wealth of experience with children has been so much reassurance to me as a first time mother. Her experience with tantrums, fussy eaters/sleepers, illnesses and everything in between means that she has been so much more to me than a childminder. She has treated my daughter as if she was her own, and has been consistent with my own approaches. I have been fortunate, and every day that we have dropped our girl off, she just can’t wait to get into Leighann’s house and play with her friends. It feels very sad to be taking our little girl out of this environment now, but I remember being new to the area, and I wanted to share my experience.
