I was really nervous about putting my daughter into childcare as she is naturally very shy and had not spent much time away from me before. From the moment she attended Charlottes setting she absolutely adores her. Each morning she is so excited to go and at pick-up she is always smiling and tells me about her amazing day.
The photos Charlotte shares throughout the day show just how happy and engaged Elsie is and it gives me so much reassurance.
Elsie talks about Charlotte all the time even when she is not there which speaks volumes about the bond they have built. It is clear that Charlotte creates a warm loving and fun environment where children feel safe and valued.
I really appreciate the regular updates I receive during the day. Charlotte always lets me know what Elsie has eaten what activities they have done and shares lovely photos.
I feel completely confident knowing that Elsie is safe, happy, learning and having fun every single day. I cannot recommend Charlotte highly enough. She has made such a positive difference.

Thank you so much for your kind words I really appreciate it, it truly means so much to me.
I love having Elsie in my setting
Our daughter has been in Charlotte's care for the past two years, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, she has gone above and beyond in every aspect of childcare.
She offers a wide variety of activities that keep the children engaged, stimulated, and constantly learning. Whether it’s creative arts and crafts, sensory play, outdoor fun, or educational games, every day brings something new and exciting. It’s clear she puts a lot of thought and care into planning activities that are both fun and developmentally appropriate.
Her home is always spotless, well-organized, and set up beautifully for children to feel safe and comfortable. The environment is warm, welcoming, and filled with resources that support learning and play.
One of the things we appreciate most is her ability to build strong, trusting relationships—not only with the children but with the parents too. She communicates clearly, keeps us updated regularly, and is always open, honest, and approachable. We’ve always felt completely confident leaving our daughter in her care.
We’re so grateful for everything she’s done and couldn’t recommend her more highly. She’s truly an exceptional childminder.

Thank you Joanna for your kind words. It's been so lovely getting to know your family over the past 2 years. Wishing your little one all the best with the upcoming school transition I shall miss her very much.
My son had previously been in a preschool, and was extremely unhappy going in and would not settle even after 6 months. I found Charlotte and met her and was able to bring my son to our first meeting and he was right at home from the get go. This gave me so much confidence him going into a clean, tidy home, with many toys (indoor and outdoor). She is also constantly adding new toys/learning material. Charlotte changes the learning theme weekly, and has fantastic sensory trays set up for the children when they enter, crafts throughout the day, she takes him to local playgroups, and has even had a little Christmas party for the children during December. The communication Charlotte provides is consistent and throughout the day, which is lovely to be getting updates in real time, but she also provides a summary of the day as well. My son adores her, so much so that when asked who he wanted at his birthday she was the first one mentioned. I will be extremely sad when it is time for my son to go into reception but know that Charlotte has done her upmost getting him “school ready” and communicating what I need to do at home to progress his learning to get him there.

Thank you Megan for your kind words. It has been a pleasure helping your son come out of his shell and become the happy, fun, loving life little boy that he is. I wish him all the best in his upcoming school transition
Charlotte has looked after two of my children for a few years now and they feel completely at home. Charlotte’s home is safe and welcoming and has a lovely garden to play in. They have lots of fun playing with toys and educational fun activities.
I love that Charlotte sends updates and pictures of their day. She is a first class Childminder and highly recommended.
