Phoebe has been looking after my daughters since April 2016 (my girls had just turned 2&4 then) and it has been absolutely amazing all the way. She is one childminder that I’ll say genuinely loves children. And my kids love her too. She goes out of her way in caring for them and in supporting me through a career change. Both of my girls are now in school full-time and she remains my rock: from emergency pick-ups from school, to supporting them with their learning and homework, she is simply the best. I don’t know about others but she actually never charged me for the occasional lateness from delayed trains or traffic I’ve never experienced the rest of mind I have enjoyed with Phoebe and I am super grateful. Did I mention that my daughters have asked me to cook certain meals “the way auntie phoebe does it” and I am not a bad cook, you know. She is that good... no regrets from my end. I also found her wealth of experience useful whenever I worried about this rash or that behaviour in my daughters.

I actually like her setting... the open plan carries that aura of transparency and openness. It also means no child is out of sight at any given time. The joy on the children’s faces says it all. Phoebe’s setting is welcoming and her assistants are good too. Esi brings a calming energy to the setting while Rose seems to work magic with the babies. Thank you Phoebe and Team for your genuine love and support for myself and the girls over the years. You will forever have a special place in my little family. Peace, Winifred, Tochukwu and Okechi
