Bea has been childminding for my 2.5YO son for a few weeks now and he absolutely loves being there! So much so that at the weekends he asks if he can go back!
Bea is a very attentive, energetic and organised person, who always has time for a chat/debrief about the children she looks after and what they have been doing throughout the day.
She plans fun and educational outings regularly, so I know my son is never bored while there. The food she offers is healthy and tasty, much of it home grown on her allotment.
Of all the childminders I've used before (and there have been a few) Bea is definitely the one I have felt most happy about leaving my son with, as I know he has loads of fun there, is well looked after (safety wise and attention-wise), and they go out so often. Her young daughter and husband are also lovely and it's clear she and her family provide a very caring environment for the children she looks after.
All in all, I think although she is not the most experienced, Bea is a fantastic childminder, who I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone!
