My Summary
Great Favour Childcare Centre
About Me
I am a 'Good' Ofsted rated childminder. I am a loving, patient and reliable person that is committed to my job. Safety is a key word in my child care centre and learning is introduced to children through play. I adhere to the Early Years Foundation Stage guidelines in my setting. I understand that every child deserves the best possible start in life and I make sure that this does not elude the children in my setting. Finally, I am also committed to building the confidence and emotional development of the children in my setting.
My Experience
I have provided quality care for many babies and kids up to ages 8 and above since I started childminding. I still provide all the care I am able to give including love, hugs and cuddles. I am able to handle children with special needs and provide care, tailored to their needs. However, learning is still introduced in my setting according to the EYFS guidelines with appropriate activities which enhances the learning process.
I also provide emmergency childcare if I have availability, as I understand the challenges life throws at parents when they least expect.
My Qualifications
Child minder training course Certificate
First aid course Certificate
Level 2 Food Safety and Hygiene for Catering course Certificate
Autism Awareness Diploma
Using Visuals and Augmentative and alternative Communication (AAC) in Early Years course.
Children's behaviour as a Communication course
Many Early Years webinar courses.
I am a 'Good' rated registered childminder, and I am registered with Ofsted.
My Availability
I am very flexible and work from Mondays to Fridays. I do not work on weekends.
I am available for emmergency childcare, if I have availability, as I understand the challenges life throws at us when we least expect.

Eunice and Sam come across as very lovely people how ever they do not communicate or give you updates on your child’s learning or progress often, I received a few photos here and there. I toilet trained my daughter in the summer of 2024 and buy January 2025 she was fully toilet trained however they refused to take my child out of nappies in February I had approached Eunice and asked her to give me updates on my child’s progress with her toilet training in they’re setting as it was only there she wear nappies, Eunice told me I was asking too much and told me she refused to take my child out of nappies. I told her I was not happy with her response and that she should be willing to work with me instead of telling me no it’s not happening. She also told me she refused to because of how much her carpets cost, so basically her carpets were more important than my child’s development.
Also on a separate occasions I questioned her about the fees as her long break down did not make any sense and that she was not allowed to charge me a top up fee for the 15 free hours she then replied with an attitude, stating if I am not happy the leave.
She also called me in to discuss my child and sat next to me with her arms crossed making loud “hmmm” as I spoke with her husband’s. I asked both of them to stop on several occasions and so she stormed out the room.
Eunice comes across as lovely people until you have concerns and questions. I would much rather my children be looked after by people that work with parents who have concerns and not treat them as if they have no right to ask questions.

It is very sad that you could bring yourself to give us a low review after the high level of support we rendered to you, and your children in our setting despite their bad and inappropriate behaviours. We are mandated to give you updates on edcational and developmental matters and this we did regularly and verbally at pick up. Potty training is your responsibility and we are there only to help and support. This we did happily until you started enforcing it on us and stressing the child. Remember, we started the potty training and not you, as you claimed in your review. Many parents that their children have passed through here can attest to how we support in Potty training and are thankful to this day.
On the issue of top up, have you ever been charged by us? Have you paid any top up to us?
Life is so short and we all need to be truthful and fair.
You do not need to bad mouth our business if it is not a good fit for you anymore after almost 2 years that your children have been with us.
You are just an ungrateful one as we have had none until you showed up and we are really sorry we opened our door to you and your children.
We wish you and your children the best with your new child minder, who would provide free services to you as that is what you want and also deal with your constant lateness with no remorse or payment.
Eunice & Sam.
As a parent, the safety and well-being of my child is my top priority. So when it came to choosing a childminder, I was extremely anxious. But then I found Eunice and all my worries vanished. My daughter has been with her since 2021, and I can confidently say that Eunice and her husband are the best! Not only is my daughter happy, but she's also meeting all her milestones and learning new things every day. She loves spending time with Eunice so much that every holiday period is a struggle as she wants to be with her all the time. If you're looking for a safe and nurturing environment for your child, look no further than Eunice. I'm grateful for all that she's doing and the peace of mind she's given me. Thank you, Eunice!

Eunice is absolutely lovely !! She looks after my son and she’s sooo good with him ( he is very naughty ) but she has a lot of patience. Also my older son goes to her when is off school . I give him the choice to go to clubs , but he always wants to go to Eunice !!! She and her husband are excellent. Highly recommend them if you’re looking for childcare. Children are very happy there .

If you are looking for a reliable, honest and caring service then Eunice is the place to go. Eunice loves what she does and has looked after my daughter like her own since when she was a baby. I am never worried when I leave my daughter at Eunice because I am confident she is in safe hands.
My daughter loves her and her home is a home away from home. It is always clean and tidy.
I would recommend Eunice anytime.
Thank you for taking care of my little one.
Rita.

Eunice has looked after my 3 children for almost 3 years. She is a great lady who I leave my children with without having any reason to worry.
She loves the children and the children love her so much that they want to go there even at the weekend.
I am grateful I met her, she helped me survive studying a nursing degree with 3 children.
Highly recommend..
