Elaine has looked after both of my children since they were a few months old and I couldn't be happier with Elaine and her wonderful setting. Elaine is friendly and welcoming and keeps you very well informed about your child's development and milestones from the minute she takes care of them. She develops and fosters positive relationships and both of my boys have been extremely happy there. As full time working parents it can be so daunting having to find someone to entrust your children to and I am so incredibly happy that I found Elaine. She has helped my boys develop through the early years and into their time at primary school and continues to do so with my youngest. She is flexible, knowledgable and warm and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Elaine has been my childminder since my son was 6months old (now 42 months) and later this year due to school requirements i will have to give up her services. Leaving my child with someone i trust is the most important thing to me....he has grown in confidence whilst being there....Elaines home is full of fun and excitement for children with a deicated playroom with safety @ the top of the agenda. She understands all the childrens need, treats them as individuals and teaches them so much. Now only has she been my childminder but advisor, listener and friend.....i 'll be very sorry to lose her services but we have now arrived at the next stage of my son's life, in my opinion you would be mad not to take up her services.
