A dedicated Childminder

My children have been cared for by Patricia for years now. She has proven to be dedicated and loving towards my children and myself. Her home is clean and tidy with plenty of toys for children of different ages as well as a lovely garden space where they children can play safely. She has been very adaptable and accommodating with my shift patterns and ensures the children are happy, settled and comfortable as possible when I’m on a very early release late shifts.
She always provides freshly cooked healthy meals and snacks, often sending thief meals home with them if they didn’t eat, which took a load off of my shoulders after working long shifts. She encourages children to be independent and gives small age appropriate responsibilities which my children have throughly enjoyed and takes pride in.
Patricia provides a wide range of creative activities and games for the children. Patricia runs a play group and messy play session twice a week which my youngest attends and absolutely loves. Patricia has encouraged both children to explore, get messy, and not to be afraid to try new things. She spends a lot of time with them outdoors and takes them on outings to the museums, farms and even to the seaside.
I love the online system she uses to track the children’s learning and development. I have access to it at all times as I can view it via the app and the internet suit. I also get photos, videos and messages throughout the day to keep me abreast on how and what the children are doing.
I haven been able to concentrate at work knowing that both of my children are well looked after. I couldn’t ask for a better person to care for my children.

Wonderful childminder!

My daughter has been looking after my daughter since January 2020 when she turned one year old. I was nervous about sending my daughter to a childminder at first, but everything has gone so well and we couldn't be happier with Patricia's care. Patricia provides a range of stimulating activities, including messy play, outdoor activities in the garden and outings for my daughter to enjoy and she loves playing with Patricia's son and daughter. Her setting is fantastic with plenty of fun toys and a garden with different activities set up. Patricia provides home-cooked meals and healthy snacks. We are moving to a new area and are extremely sad for my daughter to leave Patricia as she has been a wonderful childminder for my daughter!

Amazing childminder - we are so lucky

Our children J and E have been settled with Patricia since 2016 from when they were babies. They are now 3 and 5 and are thriving. Not only are they very well cared for, they are stimulated with a range of fun activities that Patricia arranges for them, E goes to a music class and J to Karate. As a Nursery Room Leader prior to setting up her own business, Patricia is an extremely experienced childminder with an outstanding reputation locally. We are so happy to have been recommended to use her services and our children have also learnt so much as well as being nurtured whilst in her care. we also get lots of photos and short videos so we get to see what J and E have been doing during the day, which is wonderful.

Simply the best

Tricia is amazing
She had LM from age 2 to 3

LM was a very shy non confident little girl.
Since being with Tricia she has blossomed into a confident chatty three year old.

She has learnt numbers colours afphabet and many other skills whilst in Tricias care.

We could not of asked for better child care
We will miss LM going to Tricias and LM asking if she’s going to Tricias.

We wish Tricia all the very best for the future and hope to meet up in the school holidays.
