Karen's childcare setting is fantastic such a nurturing, professional, loving, safe environment. My daughter loves going to Karen's and adores her.
Molly is very well cared for at Karen's and has the best relationship with Karen she sees Karen like her 2nd Mum. She has learnt so much in the last 2 years.
Communication is 2nd to none Karen is so approachable always wants the best for all children In her care.
I would highly recommend Karen if anyones looking for a childminder. I would be lost without her I go to work and not worry about Molly at all.

Karen has looked after my daughter since she was 18months old, now 5 and a half and away to start school, I can honestly say Karen has been an absolute gem! Her home is fantastic, such a beautiful setting with plenty of educational toys, arts and crafts, a huge garden with so much to do and she is always keeping the kids busy with weekly activities. Encourages new eating habits, manners and looks at all the children as if they are her own. Adapting to new and challenging behaviours and discussing ways in which could benefit us all.

My daughter and I have developed an amazing relationship with Karen, and we see her as family and I cannot thank her enough for her endless support to both Raeya and I. With our recent ASD diagnosis, it has been a pleasure having her be apart of our journey. I am so thankful to have such an amazing childminder who has put things at ease for me, all these years throughout my daughter’s time in her care. She truly has gone above and beyond to help, learn and support us. Thank you again Karen, hope to stay in touch. We will both miss you incredibly!!

Thank you for your lovely review, it has been a pleasure to be part of your daughter’s pre School journey. We have had so much fun and laughter and has been a learning experience. I will keep in touch to hear how she is enjoying school xx

After struggling to settle in to nursery we started to consider a childminder for my son - and Karen was the best thing we could have done for him!!
He is very fussy about who takes care of him (we even struggle with family members) but a “Karen Day” is always met with delight.
He had the exact environment he needed to thrive and adores Karen and the other kids.

I am so grateful to have found someone who treats us like family and goes above and beyond to help out! I would recommend Karen to anyone :)

Thank you for your lovely comments Amy.
It’s a pleasure to take care of your son, he brings so much joy, energy & enthusiasm into my setting. All his friends here look forward to a Wednesday when he’s here x

Karen has looked after my daughter for almost 2 and a half years and in that time she has been the most supportive, respectful and wonderful person for both me and my daughter. Karen treats all children as if they are her own and her home is fully equipped with all the best toys and craft supplies. Karen is wonderful with all the children but Is also a great support to the parents and I don’t think I would have survived the last few years without her. She is always on hand to help and goes above and beyond for all the children in her care! Karen is wonderful and I am gutted ,due to my daughter going to school, she won’t be in Karens care. We are hoping to secure a few days in the holidays to catch up with everyone! Thank you Karen you are a star x

Thank you for your lovely review E. Your daughter has been an absolute pleasure to child mind. We will all miss her dearly and hope she has a great time at school. Looking forward to seeing you both in the holidays xx

Karen is an absolutely fantastic childminder. Our daughter has been with Karen for almost a year and a half and loves going there.
Karen is extremely reliable and trustworthy and it genuinely feels like our daughter is part of her family.
Karen is continuously does activities with the children whether it’s parks/soft play or arts and crafts.
We couldn’t be happier with Karen’s fantastic service and would recommend her to any parent.

My little boy went to Karen for 3 years. He absolutely loved every minute of his time with Karen and regularly asks to go back. His imagination, speech, eating, manners are brilliant for a 3 year old and Karen has contributed to that massively. Karen is so much more than a childminder. She treats the kids as her own, and they are so well looked after. I can’t recommend her enough!

Thank you Catriona, was an absolute pleasure to have him. We miss him so much 💙xx

I would highly recommend Karen to anyone who is looking for a childminder.

My daughter has been in her care now for nearly 2 years and I have never been so at ease. Karen is very honest and reliable. I am sent regular photos of Devynn which consists of days out at the park, water and sand play, painting, free play etc etc.

Karen has always provided my daughter with the same love and care that I would at home and always goes above and beyond to ensure she is happy and settled.

My daughter has a lovely group of friends who also attends alongside her and Karen provides them all with excellent routine and structure!!

Karen’s home is always kept to an excellent standard and a lovely garden with lots of age appropriate toys which are well organised.

Karen is a lovely, bubbly, honest and reliable childminder that I would highly recommend.

Thank you Khally, your daughter is an absolute pleasure to watch xx

My little boy has been going to Karen for just over 2 years now. He absolutely loves the time he spends with her, and really does see Karen as part of the family. She is very flexible and accommodating which is very lucky as both my job and my husband's job are unpredictable. I feel like my son gets a range of activities both inside and outside, and he gets opportunities to socialise too. His speech, language skills and general knowledge are really quite impressive for his age and I feel that Karen has contributed hugely to that. I would highly recommend Karen to anyone looking for childcare in the area.
