Desire looked after my 10 month old son for a few months before she went on maternity leave. We absolutely loved having Desire as our childminder and my son was so happy with her. I had known Desire for just over 3 years before she became our childminder and she is still a good friend even though she no longer looks after my little boy. Desires paperwork is amazing and she does very detailed files for all her children. She has a learning theme each month and plans all her activities around this. She cooks wonderful food and plans lots of activities to take the children out and about. She is very in tune with the children and if one child isn't feeling well then she stays at home and does loads of house activities which the children really enjoy. Her house has lots of open space for the children to move around and is very safe. She constantly sends parents updates through the day while they are working which is very reassuring. Most of all Desire is exceptionally caring and the children get lots of cuddles and love. She has such a positive attitude and there is always laughter and fun in her house. We would recommend Desire in a heartbeat.
