My little one was with CJ from 13 months...settled in well and was enjoying their time at the setting. The team were well caring, attentive and provided challenging activities.

Thank you for the review was a pleasure looking after your little girl always looked forward to her coming in the morning!😉
Christine and her team looked after my son for 3 years and he absolutely loved his time there. He recently left as he is starting school but is already asking to go back.
Christine's childcare set up and area for the children is lovely and there are lots of children to interact with. The days are well structured with a good balance between fun, educational and outdoor activities. It is the perfect solution between a nursery and childminders.
The staff are extremely caring and have played a huge part in helping my son develop into smart, caring and polite little boy who is well ready for his next chapter at school. We cannot thank them enough!

We all miss him he’s such happy boy it’s been a pleasure looking after him.
Thank you for the lovely review .
Christine and her lovely team cared for my 2 year old son for a year and we would not have left if our work place wasn’t moving.
She has a lovely extension at her house just for the children, set up like a nursery, with lots of beautiful toys. It backs out onto a children friendly garden, also filled with lovely toys.
The children do arts and crafts, music time and learning sessions. I was so surprised when my son suddenly started singing the whole alphabet! The children are taken to the park regularly and to play groups.
I loved that Christine was on the other end of the phone, sending us updates and photos of their day. I always felt my son was completely safe and happy there.
Thank you Christine and team!

Thank you for the lovely review We miss you are all such a lovely family xx
What can I say about Christine? She has been amazing with your daughter! We had to find childcare urgently and Christine was the only person in the area that had space! It was hard to leave the little one with someone new as a parent. Christine helped both us and my daughter settle. My daughter has grown so much with Christine and her team. Learnt a lot as they have spend time with her. Lots of updates and photos to reassure us she’s ok.
I can not thank Christine and her team enough for looking after my daughter and working with her in her development. We are sad to leave
Thank you for all your help and advice xx

Thank you all will be missed!x
I was looking for care for my 4 years old daughter and after a chat with Christine I changed my mind about what care my daughter would need. She is very kind and thoughtful person.... quite rare this days.... would definitely use her service in the future. Thank you again Christine.

We have been so happy with Christine and the way she has cared for both our children. Christine gives every child so much love and attention and we really can’t praise Christine and her staff enough. Christine really listens to you as a parent and knows how to instil good values and behaviour in a loving and caring environment. When our daughter had a medical emergency (delayed allergic reaction to food eaten at home) Christine dealt with it promptly, professionally and compassionately. We later discovered our daughter is anaphylactic with a severe nut allergy but had absolute confidence that she would be in safe hands at Christine’s. We were delighted when our son also started with Christine and were gutted when we had to say goodbye as we’ve moved to Cheltenham. Christine and her team are so brilliant we wanted to take them with us to our new home!! If you are able to get a place with with Christine you can be confident that your child is in the best hands.

Thank you so much for the lovely review.wewill miss you all x
My little boy started with Christine at a precious 7 months and we couldnt have asked for a better childminder. She reassured us in the early days sending lots of updates & photos. He has came on so much in such a short space of time. He is now a very content & happy little boy getting up to lots of mischief! Christine treats kids like her own and she has a heart of gold only towards the kids but also to parents. We will all miss her very much as we move back to Ireland💙

Thank you for the lovely review I will miss you all x
Christine has looked after my little girl for the last 2 years, she has provided top class care with state of the art facilities. She offers a real home from home environment for my little girl, settling in period was extremely smooth for not only my girl but for me as an anxious mummy!
She has taught my little girl FANTASTIC manners, how to share and most importantly to treat everyone with respect. Christine does not only have state of the art facilities at home but she provides healthy meals for the children, plans days out through half terms and is always out at the park or local playgroups.
Christine has helped me over the years with parenting advice and always provided a flexible service. She also has 2 excellent assists so each child gets a lot of 1-2-1 attention for learning and preparing for school.
Christine is more like a best friend to my 4 year old and its been an absolute pleasure sharing my duties as a mother with someone as lovely and caring as Christine.

Thank you for the lovely review we all miss her 😘
We’ve been with Christine for more than three years and really couldn’t imagine anyone else caring for our two children (aged four and 18 months).
We wanted a more homely environment than a nursery could offer that fitted around our working hours, and Christine’s is a real home from home for our boys.
Her facilities are great (she has a lovely big playroom and garden) and the boys have a variety of activities such as arts and crafts, free play and lots of trips to local groups, library and the park.
We get daily updates on what they’ve been doing and what they’ve eaten. Our eldest is shortly starting school and is happy, confident and has been well prepared for school in terms of literacy and numeracy. We’ve got a folder charting his progress in the last three years to show to his new teacher.
A balance of kindness, care and professionalism, our boys think the world of Christine and her lovely assistants- and so do we!

Thank you for the lovely review it’s a pleasure to look after the boys.
I have known Christine for nearly 7 years as she attended school whilst childminding a girl in my sons year. When I had my 3rd child I knew exactly who I wanted to childmind him however as Christine is so good she rarely had vacancies and was unable to take my son. Fate played a hand and a child left because grandparents were going to mind them and I took the vacancy. I never looked back as my son was always happy. Her house is immaculate and she spoils the children always making sure she has good condition toys for them and frequently buying new ones! My son has now started school and as I work school hours I no longer need her. She has played a big part in his life and we will continue to be friends and plan visits to see her. I would highly recommend Christine, not only from my personal perspective but she has an OFSTED outstanding review which is the second time she has managed this that I am aware of.
