Any parents are anxious to hand their child over to a new care giver. Lisa put us right at ease by suggesting we have some get-to-know eachother sessions at a local playgroup. So our daughter had no problem settling in. I'd met a few childminders but Lisa was just outstanding in every aspect. Our daughter has been there for almost six months and her communication and social skills are constantly improving. We have a record of when she's eaten, bum change and how much sleep shes had and the activities for that day. We get lots of photos of all their exciting trips out. We literally can't imagine any one better to look after our little girl. Struck gold finding Lisa
Ever since our child started in Oct 2020 we've been really happy with the care Lisa provides. She's knowledgable, full of common sense and motivated to make sure there's always lots of great ways for the children to learn through experiences, both the play and interaction opportunities she creates and the mix of outings, events and local places they go to. We love that they get outside everyday, we get pictures and updates cos Lisa keeps in touch so well, and atm our child is so excited about their weekly library visits they proudly take the book back to swap that morning!
We're so glad we chose Lisa's Childminding, and feel lucky that she had space when we needed it.
Couldn't be happier with the care Lisa gives both of my children. My eldest is at school, lisa takes her to and picks her up from school and it is the highlight of her week! She started with Lisa from when she was 1 years old and it was the nest decision we ever made, she flourished in Lisa's calm and nurturing environment. Lisa now has my youngest and there was no question on where he would go. He absolutely adores Lisa and his friends and thriving just like his sister did. He is a very active little boy and he is kept busy and happy. They are always out and about exploring the local environment and to the parks. His favourite time of the week has to be Joe Jingles he always comes home singing away on a Monday evening!
After visiting many childminders we found Lisa and couldn't be happier. She's more than just a childminder, always on hand for any questions or advice, even on days when our child is not in her care. Lisa supports decisions we make as parents and encourages the same behaviours and routines in her setting. Our child's development has come on beyond belief since starting with Lisa and this is testament to the effort and care she puts in daily. The bond our child has with Lisa is more than we could have hoped for and we are truly grateful.
Our little girl was 13 months old when started at Lisa's in July last year and settled in pretty quickly. As we don't have relatives living in close proximity, she only used to Mummy and Daddy before so settling in without difficulty was a nice beginning and it became even better since.
Little munchkin loves going three times a week and she's well occupied; outdoors are always guaranteed just as well playtime at different settlements (e.g. Bent's Garden, soft play areas, indoor play centre, Jo's Jingles), arts and crafts (truly amazing prezzies for all occassions) outings (e.g. Salford fire engine show) and age appropriate education.
We try our best to provide our little one with healthy lifestyle choices and Lisa is a perfect match for that by providing yummy but healthy meals / snacks and promoting fun activities that require loads of movement.
Also our little daughter has always been a later achiever to reach milestones (crawling at 12, walking at 18 months) and developing in a bi-lingual environment but Lisa has always been accommodating to her needs and re-assuring towards us first time parents.
We are really happy with Lisa (and the family!); we feel the best choice made for our happy and bright little daughter (and ourselves). I can highly recommend Lisa's childminding service to parents who want a safe, friendly and stimulating environment for their child(ren).
My little girl started with Lisa in July after 1st being at a local nursery for a few months. We had lots of issues with the nursery so I was soo glad I found Lisa, she has been a breath of fresh air.
My little girl absolutly loves her, loves going and playing with the other children and I feel very happy to leave her with Lisa.
I get pictures and communication during the day of activities they are doing, and there is always an outting planned.
They do lots of crafts which they get to take home, so its lovely for us as parents to have keepsakes.
Lisa also updates a note book of their daily activities, food, nappies, naps and other information.
I cant recommend Lisa enough
I was worried about my little lady going to a my setting but Lisa made it so easy! Charlotte settled straight away and by the second day was waving her daddy off at the door! Just proves to me what an amazing, caring and home from home atmosphere there is!
Lisa keeps us well informed with Charlotte's time there, we know exactly what she's eaten, slept, how many nappies and what she's played.
It's really helped Charlotte's development going to Lisa's twice a week, she's much more confident towards other children and her speech and language is blossoming beautifully.
The communication is faultless, I know I can message Lisa at any time and she'll respond. She offers advice which is handy for a first time mum.
Recently we've been giving story's and puppets to bring home and share with Charlotte which she has loved so much. It's there extra details that really make an outstanding childminder, she genuinely cares about the children she looks after and I know Charlotte loves being with her. (I'm sure if we could afford it and Charlotte could ask shed want to go everyday!)
It was a big step for us, putting the care of our precious daughter into the hands of somebody else (she had only ever been cared for by us and her nanna and grandad previously). However, any doubts or anxiety we had very quickly settled. Our little girl has been in Lisa's care since June 2017 and since she was 14 months old. We very quickly noticed big changes and developments in her, which we attribute to Lisa's care and development and the fact that she is around other children all day (especially the older ones!).
Lisa spends a lot of time planning activities for the children, as well as days out and healthy meals and snacks. Our daughter comes home every night with a diary of her day and she is generally exhausted after her day of fun with Lisa and her little friends! She has a lovely relationship with Lisa and has taken a particular shine to Lisa's own children too! Lisa constantly keeps us up to date with our little girls development, which we love.
Putting our daughter into Lisa's care is the best decision we could have made. After visiting just 1 nursery, we immediately knew that it was not the right path for our little girl and instead, she has a lovely home from home with Lisa and we can leave her confidently in her care, with peace of mind that she is well cared for and most importantly happy. We cannot recommend Lisa enough!
Our little girl has had a fantastic experience as a part of Lisa's warm and welcoming setting. She was cared for in a way that gave us 100% certainty that we would pick up a happy child at the end of every day.
What makes Lisa such a great childminder is that not only are there well planned, fun activities on a daily basis but there are opportunities for great learning with French and music classes as examples.
Our happiness with Lisa's setting has continued as our daughter still attends during school holidays and sees it as a treat.
My Daughter started going to Lisa in September 2016 she was 10 months old at the time.
Alice settled into Lisa's setting very well and is always happy when we take her and pick her up.
Alice gets very shy when she meets new people but she is very taken to lisa and has been from the start, always has a smile for her.
Alice has come on loads since being with Lisa from crawling to walking to trying to say words.
Lisa does a lot of different activities with the children ranging from arts and crafts, outings and other activities.
I would recommend Lisa as a childminder as she is brilliant.
Thank you for all your support with Alice.
