Elaine has looked after our son since he was 10 months old and he is now 3. He will be starting pre school full time meaning our time with Elaine is sadly coming to an end in December.

Elaine is caring, committed and all round amazing. She made our son feel happy, safe and we never incurred any issues.

We have created an amazing relationship with Elaine and hope to use her again when our daughter has arrived.

Elaine offers breakfast, snacks and a cooked meal everyday which is amazing as she is the only childminder in the area I know that offers that! She also included nappies and wipes when our son was still in nappies. That is all included in her hourly rate which is so handy and helpful.

If Elaine has ever had any concerns with our sons development she would always sit down and have a conversation with us so we can have full understanding.


Elaine sends a daily diary everyday at the end of the day with a break down of their routine, including what they have eaten that day, what activities they have been up to! Even down to their toilet routine which is really helpful

Elaine’s house is well kept, very clean and inviting which multitudes of activity’s and toys for the children to play with.
