Kelly Stroud has looked after my two daughters now aged five and seven since 2011. I have always needed flexible and part time childcare as I work as a cover teacher where my hours change quite often.

Kelly has always been incredibly flexible and has been able to pick up from and drop off the girls to Holy Trinity School at short notice. I never have to worry as Kelly is extremely reliable and easy to get hold of. I also feel very relaxed at work when I know she is picking up my daughters from school. I know that they are in very safe hands.

My girls love Kelly, as she is always happy, friendly and interested in them as individuals. She is always pleased to see them and takes time to speak to them about their day.

I would not hesitate to recommend Kelly. She is cheerful, child-centred and full of energy and in my opinion an excellent childminder.
