Becca has cared for our son since November 2023, when I returned to work following maternity leave when he was 14 months old. I found the idea of leaving him heartbreaking and I searched for nearly a year for childcare I was happy with - visiting nurseries, interviewing nannies and meeting around 25 childminders. My Mum was a childminder when I was growing up so I knew what I was looking for and it seemed impossible to find. But as soon as I met Becca I knew she was the one. She provides our son with a happy, nurturing environment and he loves his time with her and his friends. We are always hugely impressed with the wide range of equipment, books, activities and exciting outings she plans and our son has learnt so many new things. He spends plenty of time outdoors enjoying physical exercise. Becca works in partnership with us and respects our preferences. She also works closely with another lovely fellow childminder so our son benefits from socialising with a wider group a couple of times a week, while enjoying a close connection with Becca and the nurturing environment of her home. The children don’t watch tv which we love and she has a fish tank and a child-friendly dog so our son can learn to be comfortable with and care for animals. Becca is experienced, hard working, reliable and flexible with us. Her communication about our son’s eating, nappies, activities etc is excellent. She’s the gold standard of child care providers and we are so happy we found her. If you’re looking for childcare and in the same pickle that I was in, call off the search, I’ve already done the research for you! I’ve searched high and low and Becca is the best.
