Laura has looked after our daughter for a year now, since she was 1. She has provided a home from home where my little girl has felt comfortable, confident and has thrived. Laura is a friendly, understanding and caring minder who consistently provides the stimulation that young minds need.

Our daughter regularly goes out and about with Laura to play groups, parks, shops and for walks. They are always busy! When they are in the house there are plenty of toys to play with and Laura provides role play, physical play, construction, drawing, cooking, messy play activities and much more. Our child also goes to a nursery on some days and Laura has worked very hard to tie in her activities with theirs so that there is consistency across the settings.

Laura is flexible and accommodating and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her. My little girl will miss going there when she has left. You could not wish for a better childminder!
