Cheryl took care of our daughter three afternoons a week from January 2015 until just a few weeks ago (the arrangement came to an end due to relocation) she is a fantastic childminder, and both myself and my husband would recommend her unreservedly . Professional, kind, reassuring and caring are just some of her lovely attributes. Leaving my daughter to return to work was made so much easier with the knowledge that she was in a safe and caring environment. The set up is great and children's personalities are clearly celebrated and nurtured in Cheryls care, there is such a sense of purpose and fun in the learning environment and activities are planned to support all aspects of development.Cheryl is always aware of next steps to support the on going development in all areas and my daughter really flourished in her care. The communication from Cheryl was always excellent which helps so much when leaving your precious charges for the first time! . We will miss cheryl and her family a lot, but are very greatful for the time our daughter got to spend in her care, and for all of the hard work, cheryl definitely goes above and beyond. Many many thanks!
