My daughter has been going to Carly for the last few months since she opened her doors. The house is huge, homely and well looked after. It's kit out with a wide variety of toys and learning tools and the garden is bigger than most playgrounds, with an under cover play area and a huge lawn for the kids to run around on.

Carly herself is an absolute pleasure to deal with and have looking after our daughter. She is happy to spend as much time as we need at the end of each day, telling us what they have been up to. We get a written diary entry each day which tells us how our daughters day has been, details their sleep, nappies/toilets and what they've eaten. One thing I love is that Carly sends pictures and videos which always brightens my day. My daughter eats three wholesome meals when shes there. Some of the activities they have done, Rhyme Time (nearly every Friday), walks to the park, trips to the zoo, school fetes, fruit picking, soft play.

Carly has also been excellent at working with us to raise our daughter, providing support even when we are not there and advise of things like potty training etc. Our daughter has built a strong bond with Carly in a short period of time.

I would highly recommend Carly to any parent looking for a caring, friendly and supportive child minder.
