We would very highly recommend Kelly and Caroline as childminders. They supported and cared for our young son for his second year and we felt that he grew a lot in confidence. There was always a sense that they carefully planned their days with the children, with a good balance of focused activities and playtime. We never felt that the children were just 'minded', but engaged with and led through explorations of games, imaginative play, art etc. which really fed their curiosity. He always came home talking about the day and what they did and the good food that they ate, as well as the wonderful connections he made with the other children. Kelly and Caroline were very careful and conscientious about his health and supported us whenever he needed additional attention. They were also very easy to communicate with. Overall, it felt like this was an excellent first step for our son out into a wider world of play and learning, that felt safe, considered and nurturing.

Our daughter has been attending Little Stars now since April 2023 (she is now 20 months). From the moment we walked in the door for our first visit I was immediately reassured and confident that Kelly and Caroline would provide a loving, supportive environment for our daughter. Kellys home is immaculate, despite 4 little ones running around. Our daughter is quite shy and it took a good 4-6 weeks for her to really settle in but Kelly went above and beyond to ensure she felt comfortable, even buying new toys to match the ones we had at home. She was also extremley supportive for us as parents as this was our first experince of childcare. We receive regular updates throughout the day, with pictures and videos documenting her achievements. They encourage creativity with lots of arts and crafts. Kelly will always ask and enquire how our daughter is doing at home so that they can take into account areas of development they can provide support on and actively encourage. Whilst Kelly's home doesn't have a garden she ensures the children get out and about, with a park nearby and organised trips to destinations like Clissold Park. Our daughter puts out her arms and walks in the door every morning and doesn't look back, which I think is a 5 star review in itself.

Kelly was our first experience with childcare for our little one and it was the perfect experience for us to ease into this world. Kelly is so naturally wonderful with children, smiley and positive, kind and caring. We trust that she made the friendliest environment for our baby. It was a pleasure working with her and we are sad to have to move on now we are accepted into a local nursery! Thank you again Kelly!

Our 18 month old son has been with Kelly and Caroline since January 2023. He is always happy to go in the morning and discover the exciting indoor and outdoor activities they have planned for the day. We receive updates and pictures throughout the day and he comes home content and well fed. Kelly and Caroline are doing an excellent job looking after our child and support his learning and development.

My son has been attending Kelly and Caroline's home nursery for about 5 months (now aged 20 months). He is very happy there! He runs into their home every morning, excited to find out what activities have been set up that day. He has never been upset to say goodbye and has clearly built a bond with Kelly and Caroline. He is always well fed, does nice long naps and gets to go outside to the local parks often. He has developed really well since going here and it's lovely to see him interact with a small group of friends of varying ages. Kelly updates us daily on his development and interests and 'wow moments'. They have created a brilliant home nursery and we are really happy with the care they provide. I would recommend Kelly and Caroline's home nursery.
