Emma and Paul looked after my son from the age of ten months to nearly three and he was so happy there. He still talks about them now. Emma's children took my son as one of their own and I always felt like he was part of the family.

Emma is super-organised, the children eat really well balanced home-cooked meals and go out every day. There is a real variety of activities too, farm visits, play-groups, soft play and they even took my son to the natural history museum (I haven't even managed to do that yet!). They keep daily diaries for you to read so that you can catch up on what your child has been doing that day. The garden is massive with lots of space for the children to run around in and Emma's house is right next door to a park.

I always loved the fact that it is a male/female team working together. Paul was a fantastic male role model for my son, and with two childminders you know when meal preparation and nappy changes are happening the children are not unsupervised.

Together they are a truly caring, fun and professional team, and I am so grateful that I found them when I did, they gave my son a really great start.
