Anna has been everything and more to us and our son Jake. Jake has been with Anna's since he was 7 months old and now he is ready to start school in September thanks to Anna's love, care and nurturing! Anna goes above and beyond for the families she cares for and she has helped me through my journey as a mum.
Jake absolutely loves his time at Annas and I have always been so impressed with everything she does with the children! They are entertained the entire day.
You will not find another childminder that cares as much as Anna!
All children she looks after are incredibly lucky to have her.
Anna has cared for both my older children (total of 3 years) and comes with years of experience. She has always been 100% reliable and highly organised, knowledgeable on child development and a highly capable bubbly lady! She has a lovely tidy and clean home, with handy air con for those summer months. Anna always takes the children out in the mornings- fresh air, interaction with other peers and exposure to a range of settings. She is careful to plan out timely activities that are relevant to seasons or events of the year, e.g. the Coronation party! She has a sensible approach (that includes parents) to any issues that arise such toilet training and behaviour support. Thanks Anna for your time and hard work đ

Thankyou Harriet, Iâve loved having both your children and feel honoured to of been able to care for them both consecutively.
They were both an utter joy and will be sorely missed in my setting. xx
I have been fortunate enough that both of my children have been able to be with Anna. She has a beautiful home and the kids have a great balance between going out and also doing activities at home in a fantastic environment. Anna is always taking them fun places and we are kept well informed of what they have been up to and how they are progressing. If you are lucky enough to be able to get a space snap her up as it wonât be about for long. She is truly amazing and I donât know what we will do without her when my youngest starts school next year. There is nobody I would trust more with my kids and she is just a wonderful childminder. Thanks Anna x

Thankyou Holly for a lovely review, another family Iâve been fortunate enough to of cared for both of your children. Like every child that walks through my door they are part of my family forever. Iâve loved having Fox and now Ozzie and I look forward to getting Ozzie ready for school for Sept 2024. xx
Anna took us under her wing and we have never looked back. I was just pregnant with my second child when we first met in a park and I felt instantly at ease with her. She has a natural affinity with children and my baby who was 9mths old when he started with Anna was settled and happy in no time. Anna helped me as a mum too, I was so nervous returning to work again but Anna kept me posted with pictures and messages that kept me sane in those early weeks. After almost 4 years with Anna, my son went on to start school, Anna had him school ready, writing his name, putting his own coat and shoes on, he was completely independent and that was all down to Anna.
We didnât want him to leave Anna before he started school so we didnât do any preschool as he already got everything he needed for school from being with Anna.
We all dreaded him leaving Annas but I knew Anna would always be in our lives, she still babysits for us now.
For any nervous mums out there who are worried about going back to work, all I can say is make sure you book in early so as you get a space. Anna is snapped up by everyone who sees her and this advice was given to me. Good childminders are hard to come by. Her home is light, airy and welcoming, the children are always busy with plenty of outside activities too and most of all my son adores her! We will always be grateful for the start she has given our son and the way she has loved him like her own.
We could never say enough good things about Anna. We met many local childminders during our search but once we met Anna we searched no more. She is everything a parent would want and more.
We were blown away at the interview, seeing all the amazing things she does with the children and it was clear to see just how much all the children loved her. Anna balances her days with time out and about and then quality time at home learning all the time.
Anna was always flexible if we were late and isnât the type of childcare provider to send children home as soon as a runny nose appears. So many of our friends have this with their childcare and are so jealous of the dedication Anna always shows our family. Every friend who has tried to go to Anna hasnât been able to as she is always full with a waiting list!
We count ourselves incredibly lucky to have our son in Annas care and hope she is part of our lives for many years to come.
During these unusual times, our regular childcare arrangements at nursery were made unavailable, despite meeting key worker status. We were fortunate to find Anna for short-term childcare.
Our 18-month-old daughter experienced 7 wonderful weeks with Anna. From day 1, Anna was professional, caring and very thoughtful to all our needs! Anna made sure every day was stimulating, different and enjoyable. Anna made sure to make the most of the good weather, spending lots of time outside, at local parks, and in her own beautiful garden, filled with toys. We were always amazed at the number of educational activities Anna provided, in various creative ways in a loving environment.
Anna provided daily updates, with detailed summary of what activities took place, food, drink, sleeping, and a wonderful bonus of lots of photos. We loved being able to see our daughterâs daily adventures, and how much fun she had! It was wonderful to see how much our daughter flourish and developed in a relatively short amount of time, we will all miss our time with Anna!
I wouldnât hesitate to recommend Anna for any childminding needs!

Thanks so much Fiona, I loved having Cora here and we miss her already. Hopefully one day soon she can be part of my team on a permanent basis. Keep in touch x
Leaving my son was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. Anna was beyond outstanding. She loved him as if he were her own. I was immediately put at ease. She kept me informed by using Babysdays and all the pictures I received everyday, the detailed diary, the lovely food, the fun trips out, the crafts she sent home, the detailed reports, everything was TOP CLASS! She never had one day off sick and didnât send my child home as soon as he had a runny nose!!! So many Childminderâs do this but Anna was great at understanding how hard it for is for working parents to be off for trivial things.
Annaâs house is beautiful (I was very jealous) it was warm, inviting, spacious and most of all clean! Her garden was also amazing. My son spent 2 years there and I only wish I had had another child to send to her. He never didnât want to go to Anna, he loved her as a much as she clearly loved him.
A truly lovely lady, with a heart of gold who absolutely gets what itâs like for working parents!!
Donât scroll by, you will never find another like Anna.
I have had my daughter with Anna for over a year now and since the very beginning we have found Anna to be professional, approachable and caring. I feel that myself, my husband and daughter all have a strong relationship and rapport with Anna. My daughter was made to feel at home from the very begging and we have been provided with frequent communication from Anna on her progress, behaviour and general welfare. I feel that my daughter is safe and has a 'home from home' in Anna's care.Â
Anna is reliable, friendly, flexible and always willing to help. Since my daughter has been in Anna's care I feel that she has developed her vocabulary, numeracy and social skills. Often my daughter will use words that Anna has clearly taught her in conversation with myself and my husband which shows that she has retained the learnings that Anna has passed on. Anna has also communicated to us what she has been teaching my daughter, such as counting to 10, so that we can continue to do this with her at home.
I am very satisfied with the level of activities that Anna does with my daughter and believe that she receives a good level of stimulation. Anna is very creative in terms of the educational activities that she does for the children such as taking them on day trips to Horticultural Gardens to look and learn about nature or visiting different soft plays/playgroups to improve their social skills with other children. Anna also does lots of fun activities at home such as baking, arts & crafts, reading, outside activities in the garden etc. to teach the children new skills, coordination and expand their vocabulary. Anna has also encouraged my daughter to build relationships with the other children that she cares for and I believe this has taught her invaluable social skills such as how to share.Â
Anna always provides a detailed daily update on what they have done together during the day, what my daughter has eaten/drank and how she has slept etc. and I feel that her communication is excellent. Anna has also provided helpful advice to my husband when he has asked her about discipline at home which we have been able to practise with positive results.Â
Overall, I am extremely happy with Anna's care for my daughter and would definitely recommend her to other parents.
If you are looking for an outstanding, extremely caring, imaginative childminder then Anna is the one.
She is an absolute star. From the moment I met Anna I knew she was the perfect childminder for my son William. As a mother it is hard to let others look after your children, but I didnât need to worry. Anna is brilliant with children and has a warm, nurturing nature. Once my son had settled in (which didnât take long!) he had a brilliant time at Annaâs and formed strong friendships with Anna and the other children in her care. When my sonâs time came to an end my daughter took his place. I couldnât possibly consider anyone else.
Both children have learnt so much and would always come home smiling proudly with some funny creation or drawing. Iâve been very impressed by the variety of toys and the exciting activities Anna comes up with week by week. I have no worries knowing that they are always stimulated and having fun.
Annaâs home is spacious, beautiful and warm with a super garden. Plenty of room to play indoors and out. Anna keeps each week varied with trips to Wisley, softplay, play dates with other minders - thereâs never a dull moment!
I would not hesitate to recommend Anna as a childminder and have found her to be extremely competent, conscientious and trustworthy. I have absolute confidence that she would be able to offer any child in her care everything that is required and more.
Iâm extremely sad that my daughters time at Anna must come to an end. Although, that wonât be the end! Anna has been part of our lives and our childrenâs, so I hope we will be in contact for many more years to come.
Anna looked after my daughter for 2 years. My daughter thrived under Anna's care. She quickly settled and very much became part of Anna's family. Anna's own son William was a lovely boy and I actively saw him playing and reading to the children when he wasn't at school.
Anna's house is open plan, spacious, bright, immaculately clean and stunning! I never saw another one like it. She has bifold doors out to the garden for thru play and her garden is large, safe and lovely with lots of fun toys.
Anna took my daughter to Wisley, playgroups, soft plays, parks & farm trips. I loved the amazing art work when having quiet time in the afternoons and Anna even nurtured & hatched real chicks!! She bakes and cooks with the children and is a very loving and fun person, giving me confidence from day 1.
From my perspective she used an online system (Babysdays) to record everything, I received lots of photos daily and a detailed diary, I loved reading about all the fun they had together and reading about my daughters very detailed and informative progress within the EYFS.
Anna is an outstanding childminder in every way. I never had an concerns about leaving my daughter with her. Anyone who is lucky enough to bag a place at Anna's will not be disappointed.
