Paula is a fantastic childminder!! I have been coming to Paula for the last 6½ years, she has looked after both of my sons. Paula provides a very homely feel, it is a very welcoming setting. My boys both think the world of Paula and have always looked forward to going. Paula always has lots of crafts and exploratory ideas for the children to do. She is very aware of what they enjoy and will theme activities to their interests. Paula has both great indoor and outdoor spaces for the children to play, if it's too damp to play on the grass they can play on the ride-ons out the front. Paula takes them for lovely walks to see the goats, peacocks, lambs and chickens, my boys have loved going exploring in the woods too. Both of my boys really enjoyed playing n the sand pit with the digger arm. They both made lovely friends at Paula and all the children have always gotten on together very well. Paula really encourages kind behaviour and sharing. I really love the photo diary which Paula sends home, as I can take to my son about what he's been doing through the day, it's a great record of what they've been doing. Paula is very easy to talk to and is more than helpful if you need any assistance with your child's development, she is very aware of their capabilities. I would highly recommend Paula to anyone looking for a childminder. With Paula you will get a very homely, loving environment with an abundance of toys and activities for your little ones.
