AnnMarie has been childminding my son Samuel for almost a year now.
I have been extremely happy with the care my son has received, and the great progress he has made whilst in AnnMarie’s care.
Her home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and Samuel has great fun playing with all the toys available and with the other children in her care. Beyond all this though, it is AnnMarie’s warm and friendly but no nonsense approach which sets her apart from other childminders and nurseries we have experienced.
She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise. I know Samuel absolutely loves the outings to the park, trips to feed the ducks and walks in the woods.
AnnMarie is a great communicator and has no trouble in gaining Samuel's confidence and therefore encouraging good behaviour and kindness and compassion to others, both skills which are important to us at home.
Food is healthy and homemade which was another important requirement for us.
I couldn't be happier with the level of care my son receives and I’m certain that being in such a positive and happy environment is helping him thrive and develop into a confident and self assured little boy.
I would absolutely recommend AnnMarie as a great and reliable childminder.
