Going back to work after maternity leave was such an emotional transition - Deon made that process infinitely smoother for my husband, my son, and me. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, warm, and safe environment for their child. Our son Attlee instantly took to Deon and, despite being a somewhat clingy baby with little experience of being looked after by others, we have watched him blossom in the time he's been in her care. Deon is open and communicative to us about the day, sending us regular updates and pictures to let us know how he is doing. She has been very flexible in terms of Attlee's napping and eating schedules and has a lovely home that she conducts her business in.

Due to a change in our circumstances, we are leaving South London and by far the hardest part of this decision has been knowing we'd need to move Attlee away from Deon's care. No other childminder we've interviewed comes close to her! We are happy to endorse her and are very willing to speak to anyone who'd like more information.
