My son started going to Patsys when he started Primary School. He attended Patsys until he was 11 years old and the only reason he doesn’t attend now is because he goes to a school closer to our home. Pat is a very loving and caring childminder but she is also firm but fair when it comes to discipline. The children would never be bored whether it was outside play, creating Christmas decorations or making wonderful gifts for the parents, my son would always look forward to spending time there. In the school holidays, she makes sure that they get out and spend time at the park or at the beach on a sunny day. As she has brought up three children of her own, she has a lot of experience in looking after children and from the very first day I trusted her. Patsy is a very professional and competent Childminder and I wouldn’t have any hesitation in recommending her setting. My only regret is my son not attending her setting sooner!!
