I had met a number of childminders before I visited Victoria - and within the first 2 minutes I knew she was the person I wanted to look after my 8 month old daughter. It was obvious how experienced she was, she has a beautiful home with an outstanding playroom full of toys and activities for all ages and I loved her open, honest personality and it was clear she had a genuine love of children.

In the 6 months that my daughter has been with Victoria, I couldn’t be happier and my initial gut reaction was completely spot-on. My daughter absolutely adores her, they do lovely activities together and I know that she is as well looked after as I would look after her - for me this was vital when looking for a childminder. Victoria gives me very regular updates with regards to her progress and also great advice in terms of her development. She is flexible and amenable and I feel very lucky to have found her to look after my daughter.
