What an incredible lady.

My husband and I were always going to be apprehensive and cautious in finding a childminder as Beauden is our first born and we are very new to all of this. That anxiety and trepidation was completely washed away the moment we met Wendy. She offered to come to our house, rather than go to hers as she wanted to meet our son in his environment, rather than hers. Upon her first interaction with Beau she dropped to her knees and addressed him on his level, which immediately warmed Beau to her. From that moment on it was rather “I hope she picks us”, rather than “do we pick her?”.

Wendy cannot be recommended enough. Her every interaction with Beau, and the other kids she cares for, was absolutely professional (and caring). Beauden instantly warmed to her, and, it pains me to say, but he didn’t shed a single tear at handover. Wendy was incredible in sending through daily reports, as well as pictures on a WhatsApp group which she thought we’d want to see. She ventured out on daily activities, to local libraries, and other childminder haunts, and kept Beau stimulated but not overly so.

All that we can say is that our time with Wendy was too short, and we wish we could have her look after Beauden everywhere we go!

This lady is a saint. 10/10!
