Debbie Hunter's Reviews

After-school Care

Debbie had my son after school two days a week for two terms he settled really well he is only reception and really enjoyed his time with Debbie. The only reason he has stopped going is due to me being on maternity leave. I would really recommend Debbie to anyone needing childcare if I needed care again I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Debbie. On a Friday they would often go to the local park after school which Toby loved. Childcare with peace of mind makes life so much easier for working parents.

Excellent professional

My daughter was looked after in Debbie's care and she loved her time with Debbie. She enjoyed her days with Debbie exploring nature, playing with Debbie's pet and playing with the rest of the children. I was very glad and pleased to find Debbie, she is super professional!

Debbie is Amazing

Debbie was our childminder since 2010, for my eldest for wrap around school care, followed my second child once she started primary, and were there for the full 7 years. Then we had a little one, and as soon as I found out I was pregnant I reserved a space with Debbie, for when I returned to work when little one was 9 month. She Debbie’s until she was almost 8. Sadly we moved.
Debbie is a fabulous - for babies and pre schoolers, they are taken out almost every day, to various outdoor places, or groups, or to other childminders. That’s the huge benefit to a childminders. Our youngest thrived in Debbie’s care!
We had no question that our child would continue with Debbie for school with wrap around care. They still go out after school to local parks and woods, along with playing before pick up.
We are just sad we are no longer in the area, as we the little one would be at Debbie’s! She misses Debbie very much, but keeps in touch.
I highly recommend Debbie whether for little ones or school kids! She’s genuinely amazing at what she does and deserves her outstanding ofsted.

I miss her too x thank you for your lovely review x

Outstanding childminder

I moved my son from another childminder as I saw Debbie advertise a place and I had heard lots of great reviews. I could not believe the difference in my son when I moved him. He settled in so well and loved going to Debbie’s. Debbie has taught my son so much, he is so confident and is interested in nature. We are so grateful for all of the experiences and days out that Debbie has given my son. Debbie’s communication throughout my son’s time in her care has been brilliant, the record keeping is second to none- if my son had an accident there was always a form filled out and text home. Debbie has journaled my sons time and we will treasure this forever. If you are looking for a childminder I urge you to go and meet Debbie in her lovely welcoming home.

Thank you so much for your review he made a huge difference in my life too ... we all miss him x

Outstanding childminder.

I sent my Son to Debbie for a year whilst I worked and he absolutely loved it. He always felt safe and cared for and learnt so many new things whilst in Debbie's care. He was always excited to go and play with the friends he made and had so much to tell me when he came home. I saw him flourish whilst in the care of Debbie and I couldn't be more grateful. I felt completely comfortable leaving him with Debbie and always knew she would keep him safe and that he would be cared for exceptionally. Very approachable and an all round amazing, positive person. Thank you for teaching him so much and keeping him safe!

Amazing childminder

Debbie looked after my pre-school daughter for 5 days a week for almost 2 years. She loved attending Debbies setting and made really good friends with the other children and had a strong bond with Debbie too. She was challenged and entertained everyday by the activities Debbie offered and always had plenty of time outside, learning about nature, numbers and the world around her. My daughter started school having a very solid understanding of letters and numbers after her time spent with Debbie. Debbie is a lovely helpful and kind childminder and I am pleased we are still able to see her on the school run. I wouldn’t hesitate in asking Debbie to have either of my daughters if the need arises in the future. 😊

Excellent care!

Debbie is a wonderful person and we were very lucky to have her looking after our children.
Debbie looked after our children for many years - my son throughout primary school and my daughter from age two until the end of primary school.
Children were very happy with Debbie, as she always offered a wide range of activities, and this ensured that they were never bored.
Communication between us was perfect, daily we received updates about what happened and on every term a report with pictures of the children's progress.
When my children were in Debbie's care, I always knew they were safe and well looked after. In all these years I have never had any complaints about Debbie's work, she has always been very professional and organised.
Debbie, thank you for everything you have done for us. You are amazing!

Thanks Magda for such kind words. You're children were a pleasure to look after. Thanks so much for trusting me with their care ❤

Excellent care

Debbie has collected my two boys from school once a week for almost two years. They have been very happy in her care and enjoy their time with her. I find Debbie to be extremely reliable and she is friendly, and is easy to speak to. I was unwell for a period of time and Debbie went above and beyond to be flexible and help with the boys, and it was such a relief to be able to depend on her at such a difficult time. Due to changes in my work the boys will no longer be going to Debbie's but they will miss spending time with her.
