Average Rating: 5 stars (5 from 11 reviews)

My son started just before his 2nd bday and I was terrified of going back to work and had the mum guilt, Reg was like a Velcro toddler and wouldn’t leave my side but since starting with Keeley he has come along leaps and bounds in every aspect. Speech, behaviour, learning, everything. Within minutes of meeting Keeley all of my worries disappeared and I knew she was ‘the one’ it’s such a beautiful setting at Love 2 grow and it’s a genuinely loving happy environment for children of all ages. My son now aged 2 and a half now looks forward to going for the day and runs in without even a goodbye. The woman deserves a medal!!

I was very anxious when it came to finding a childminder. I visited a few that friends recommended and I became even more anxious! I just couldn't imagine leaving my child there. Then I found Keely and my anxieties disappeared instantly. When we visited, it was clear she had the most amazing relationships with the children in her care. She has a beautiful setting, perfectly equipped for fun-filled days and learning.

As a teacher myself, I loved the enriching activities, resources and opportunities readily available. The PERFECT start to learning that will more than prepare them for school. As a mother, I loved the warm, welcoming and motherly way that Keely cares for all of the children. She's the whole package.

Very talented and caring staff. My son really loved this nursery. He learnt a lot in all aspects from communication, relationship building, being independent, to learning maths, shapes, letters, word, sentences etc. At the time of finding Love 2 grow my then 3 year old had been turned done by many other childcare settings saying that he had to many needs to meet, and that he required to much support, the staff at this setting turned everything round for my little boy and my other children in just a few months.
Fantastic and life changing for my SEN child! Forever grateful Now he is thriving in a school.
I was very lucky to get a space at this setting.
Cannot recommend this enough. My daughter is now attending here and thriving every day she is excited to go to the nursery.
The staff have always been amazing, very approachable, flexible and caring.

Thank you so much for these kind words. It was an absolute joy to see the transformation in H. He will forever hold a special place in my heart. Little Miss C is also a well loved member of our group and brings joy and laughter to every day!

We are lucky you found us too x

Love 2 Grow are amazing. I left my 9 month old little girl with them when I returned to work and then my son also joined their setting. Always great with feedback and advice - and most importantly lots of cuddles and laughter with the little ones. A really happy, clean and safe setting. I now see Love 2 Grow as an extension to our family. My kids absolutely adore Love 2 Grow and so do we!

Our girls were with Keely at Love 2 gro for just under 3 years and both absolutely flourished with her. There were never any tears at drop off because they always had so much fun!!

Keely is just incredible with children and as a parent, I never once felt anxious about leaving them in her care. Love 2 gro became the girls second family and we were so sad when they left Hornchurch! Our loss is Clacton gain.

I felt like we struck gold when we found Keely. She has been such an amazing, positive influence in my sons life. I truly believe that I have Keely to thank for his development soaring in the past 18 months. Such a brilliant teacher.

My son said little to few words when he started attending Love2gro, and I could hear the improvement in speech in just a few weeks.

More like family than childcare x

Thank you for being you Keely!
We miss you terribly, and wish you all the best in your new home.

Love from Amanda & Frankie xxx

I am very proud of Frankie and his amazing progress in his readiness for school. Seeing him in his shirt and tie was a very emotional moment for me! His love for school, his warm friendly and enthusiastic personality will see him well for the next leg of his journey.

Thank you for trusting me with him. Xxxx

Keely was great with my little boy who started at 1yrs old.
I always felt comfortable leaving him and my little boy loved his time there. Keely Also gave me lots of advice when I needed it too so a massive help.
I would highly recommend Keely and had she not had to relocate would still be using her services.

Oh! We miss you too! The boys talk about A so often! Xxxx

Thank you Laura x

We have used Keely as a childminder for over 2years. My son started when he was just 11 months old. I always felt comfortable leaving him with her and she has done a fantastic job of looking after him over the years. He still talks about her now! It’s such a shame she has relocated or we would have continued to use her services for the next decade I am sure. But what was my loss is definitely someone else’s gain and I wish her all the best for the future in Clacton. If you’re looking for a fantastic childminder, you’ll find it with her. We miss you Keely! X

These are quite literally making me tear up! Thank you Kelly. So glad you placed your trust in us and thankful for the time we got to spend with Jack. So sad that his little sister wasn't able to follow in his footsteps and come along too.

Keeley comes highly recommended.

My daughter Isabelle used to attend Love2Grow from a year old. I was so nervous leaving her but Keeley made me feel completely at ease and became almost a support network for us! I would receive regular updates on how the day was going and I always knew that Isabelle was having a great time. Keeley always worked with us to achieve Isabelle's next steps with lots of experience to offer for all age ranges.

I feel this setting became more of a family to my daughter rather than just going to a childminder's. She always come home happy and had positive things to say about her day. Isabelle's learning and skills came along immensely whilst attend this setting, it has put her in a great position compared to the other children she now attends nursery with as she is ahead of the class.

We were so sad to see Keeley go from Hornchurch as would of stuck with her until the end but if you manage to get your child placed here, you can guarantee they will have a great time and progress with their learning!

Hey Laura,

Thank you for your review. Isabelle was part of our big family and we all miss her greatly.
However I know she is prepared and able for the next peg of her journey (and we can still have beach day meet ups!)
Thank you to you and Scott for being such a fantastic family to work alongside.
I can't really put into words what leaving Hornchurch was like, the children were such a big part of all our lives and we will remember them all long after they have forgotten us.

I have found love 2 grow services invaluable. As a first time mum I found returning to work very difficult. Thankfully the ladies at love 2 grow made it significantly easier. I am in fact so comfortable with the arrangement and how happy my son is I have made the decision to return to work full time. Intially I was worried about doing this as my hours can be unpredictable and I was worried how well my son would adjust - however I need not have worried. I intend to return to work full time in the new year if it were not for love 2 grow and how comfortable I am with leaving my son in their care I would not even be able to consider this. I couldnt be happier with the care my son receives.

Hi Jennie,

Thank you so much for your kind words, both Sara and I are so happy that you are pleased with our service.

Your son has settled in so well and we are continually excited by his development and learning. We very much look forward to him attending 5 days in the new year, as we miss him on his days off!

Kindest regards,
