Paula has been my boys childminder from a couple of months old up until now at 4 years old. I have ALWAYS been exceptionally pleased with the care she has provided my son. He has always been well looked after, is happy in Paula's care and always has the best time. He is literally bursting to tell me what he has been upto, playing, been on walking adventures at the parks and playgroups or making some sort of crafts.
Coming from a home that had no pets He fell in love with Marley (Paula's family dog) from the start, poor Marley has probably been pulled left right and centre and is still the most lovable dog. We have even now got a dog ourselves.
Overall I have been so happy with everything over the years and Paula has become not just a childminder but a friend to my son and he loves her like family. I could not recommend anyone any more highly, you won't find any better!
