Elaine has cared for our daughter since she was 12 months old and very quickly we realised she's an incredible childminder - our little girl adores her. We were so nervous to leave our daughter with anybody else in those early days but Elaine put our minds at ease with lovely updates and eased any worries we had.
Elaine has been great managing her routine, flexible when her needs changed and has offered us some great advice along the way. Elaine brings so much happiness every day and our daughter always comes home really happy, telling us all about what she did that day, the songs she sang, the people she played with, what food they ate. Elaine always comes up with brilliant crafts and activities for the children to do, gets them involved in food preparation and baking and regularly takes them to the park and the farm, as well as encouraging outdoor play in the garden and with water and sand. Our daughter has come along so much in the time Elaine has cared for her and has made some lovely little friends. Elaine now feels like an extension of the family and is so passionate about the care she provides in her lovely, homely setting. She even came along to our little one’s 2nd birthday. I can’t imagine our life without Elaine now and would recommend her to anybody in the area looking for warm, caring and highly organised childcare.
