Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 10 reviews)

Over the course of 6 years, we were incredibly fortunate to have had such an excellent childcare provider to look after both our children. Cally provides a nurturing environment for the children and organises engaging activities throughout the day suited to their developing skills. They especially enjoyed it when Cally was able to take them out for morning or afternoon trips.

It can be hard to leave your children with another person, especially when they are very young, but leaving them with Cally gave us a great peace of mind & confidence. Sometimes the children didn't want to come home at all when it came to pick-up time!

Without hesitation, we would recommend Cally to anyone seeking reliable childcare. As a testimony to the quality of Cally's childcare, both our children still talk about their time with her with fond memories.

My two boys were looked after by Cally and both myself and my partner couldn’t have asked for a better childcare setting. Cally ensures that she provides the children with the most nurturing environment as well as providing engaging activities throughout the day. We were honestly so grateful to Cally for going above and beyond every day, including when she would take the boys out for the day on trips. The food was always homemade and the boys ate so well whilst in her care. We would 100% recommend Cally to anyone looking for childcare. I know only too well how daunting it can be to leave your child/children with another person but with Cally, we always felt at ease.

My son came to Cally in the school holidays and absolutely loved it. Cally has a lovely set up for the children and is very friendly & welcoming. I would highly recommend.

Cally looked after my little girl from 11 months to 2 years old. She would still be attending now if we hadn't moved out of the area. If you want peace of mind that your child will be safe, nurtured, stimulated and entertained, then look no further. I trust Cally completely with my daughter's welfare. She is attentive, cautious and really takes the time to understand your child's wants and needs and habits. Cally was respectful of my wishes in regards to routines for my daughter and was very helpful with suggestions and support for her development. My daughter loved attending and made some fantastic friends there. We miss you Cally, any child is lucky to be in your care!

Cally’s Childminding has been the perfect setting for my son. He was with Cally from 10months old to 2 and a half years old. He had lots of fun and would love playing outside or creating pieces of art work for different occasions. He made lots of friends and got on well with her son and mum who often joined in with the activities. Cally was great with communicating with myself or my partner whether that be updates sending pictures of outings or letting us know how he is progressing with learning new skills. I can’t thank Cally enough for doing such an amazing job and helping my son thrive!!

My son was looked after by Cally from 10 months to 3yrs. He settled very quickly & I've had no worries that he would receive anything less than exceptional care. My son developed a wonderful relationship with Cally & her son & really looked forward to his days there (not so keen to come home again....). Cally provided our childcare throughout the pandemic & I knew my son would be safe with her. She has been extremely accommodating with changes to our shifts when we have needed to alter childcare accordingly. I have no doubt that attending such a homely, caring, & fun packed environment has been a big influence on the confident, helpful, cheeky 3yr old my son has become (instead of his crazy disorganised two shift working parents home-life).

Our daughter went to Cally’s regularly from five months up to three years old. From the time our daughter first met her she absolutely adored her. Cally’s became her second home. Cally was always so kind, so helpful and always very professional. She keeps really clear and detailed records of each childs’ development and was always available for advice and support. It was such a relief to know that our little girl was in such safe hands.

Thank you so much for your amazing review. It has been an absolute pleasure to have your little girl here with us and I look forward to the holidays so that we can meet up. I wish you all the very best for the future.

Even if she couldn’t provide the service, she suggested me how to find what I was looking for.

Our son went to Cally’s once a week from 10 months to 3 years old. We wanted the nurturing environment of a childminder’s and Cally was able to provide this. On our first visit, our son warmed to her immediately and we were confident that he would be well looked after and happy.
Our son loved his time at Cally’s each week and we were always well informed of his day. He would always leave with a smile on his face and excited to tell us of the fun he had been up to. Our son learnt so much through being with Cally and we are grateful for the wonderful experiences he had.

We've been using Cally for a year now and my child has never been as happy as she is. Cally provides a warm safe place that allows my child to relax and be herself. She is more than a childminder in our world. She is supportive to me as a parent and has a trust-worthfully ear for my child. Her knowledge of child welfare is amazing and she has on many occasions helped us through difficult times with school, sleep patterns and all the normal struggles of bringing up a child. Her work, I am positive with take my child into adulthood with a firm happy foundation to build on.
