I have known Agnes a few years as she has help with childcare for my children. They always come home happy & have had so much fun. Agnes is flexible, reliable and is great with kids. I would highly recommend 💕
I first met Agnes just over 5 years ago when my daughter started going to her, just over a years old. Despite young age, Agnes was her third childminder and I have honestly never looked back. Agnes has taken excellent care of both of my children, or until they were old enough to start nursery/school. She tailors herself to each child and makes the children feel safe and cared for. Her facilities are amazing and you know that no day is the same. They have so much fun at her place that they don't really want to go home at the end of the day.
I can honestly say that Agnes is one of a kind and she goes well beyond her normal duties. It is without any hesitation that I give Agnes the highest ranking possible - she truly is the best childminder that I've ever come across.
My daughter was cared for by Agnes from 2013 - 2016 (when she started school nursery). She was 1 when she started and I returned to work, naturally I was nervous and anxious to leave her but as soon as I met Agnes I knew she was the childminder for us and it was the best decision we ever made. My daughter was so happy in Agnes' setting, it made my life easier knowing she was safe and I didn't need to worry about her, I was always receiving pictures and videos of her day, a variety of trips and activities, they were always busy having fun. Agnes would provide me with a plan of what they were working on with regards to development targets etc, my daughter learnt so much - even the simplist game would be teaching the children something. She always ate a balanced healthy meal, more than she would for me at home!! My daughter absolutely loved going to Agnes, she had so much fun and made wonderful friends, I would struggle to get her to leave in the evenings! Once she was settled she was like one of the family, Agnes really does treat the children like her own, she is so kind, caring and thoughtful. She loves her job and thrives from the childrens development which is why she is such an amazing childminder. Agnes has helped our family on many occasions, she is so understanding, nothing is too much trouble, she has supported us through different stages of development - walking, potty training and development concerns. She has been an absolute angel therefore we, as a family, were all so sad when my daughter had to leave, there were many tears but I'm happy to say that Agnes is now a wonderful friend and still very much part of our lives. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Agnes to anyone needing childcare, she is fantastic!
My 4 year old son has been with Agnes since September 11.
I was very hesitant about using a childminder originally but my fears were soon put at ease, you can tell she just loves her job and seeing the progress children make in her care is what makes her smile.
Agnes treats my son (and the other mindees) like her own child. He loves to go there and play/learn in the spacious homely environment she has.
Agnes is so kind and welcoming and keeps me informed of my sons daily acitivites and what he has been doing/eating and so forth.
They are always very busy going to different places parks/playgroups/farms/walks and she does so much with them which keeps my son entertained and they are learning all the time without realising.
In addition we get progress reports/pictures/films so we see his development and dont feel like we miss out.
All the food is provided by Agnes and is all healthy home cooked food, healthy eating is definately promoted.
My son has learnt so much being with Agnes she encourages each child and praises them a lot, his development since being there has been enormous.
I am not suprised that Agnes continues to be awarded Outstanding on Ofsted, I would happily recommend her to anyone and will be very sad when my son has to leave.

Agnes has been my 3 year old son's chilminder since last year. As a first time mum who had only ever let my parents care for him in my absence, I obviously had reservations about leaving him with a childminder. However thanks to Agnes I need never have worried!
I visited a number of childminders to get a feel for their service, Agnes stood head and shoulders above the rest. This is not a job for her but a vocation, I have never met anyone who put me so at ease and showed such genuine care and passion about the development of the children in her care.
Agnes is so warm and open and is so enthusiastic with my son, nothing is too silly to take part in or too much trouble to organise.
She keeps amazing records and provides a monthly plan of the activitiess planned and which skills these will help to develop. She is also very helpful in supporting parents to work in partnership and ensure every child reaches their full potential.
My son can't wait for the days that he goes to Agnes and always has such a great time. He has developed so many skills in less than a year. He is supported and encouraged at every turn and he has so much fun he doesn't even realise he is learning.
Agnes is always keeping the children active and busy doing arts and crafts, nature walks, visits to libraries, farms and parks.
She provides fresh home cooked food and education to promote healthy eating.
It is absolutely no surprise to me that Ofsted awarded Agnes an 'Outstanding' as it is clear she puts in 110% effort on a daily basis. Agnes is a true professional and I can not recommend her highly enough.
