Chrissy was a rare find. It was my first time leaving my 6month old baby all day with someone who wasn't family and I've never seen my daughter so happy, between the singing and attentive care as well as patient practicing sitting and playing with age appropriate sensory toys, my baby thrived and developed incredibly during the weeks she's spent in London. The daily walks are also a highlight and I appreciated greatly her regular photo updates as well as updating me on food, naps and their adventures at the end of each workday.

Hi Andrea thank you for your kind words little K was a absolute joy to care for, wishing you both the best for the future and if your ever back in the UK and need childcare I would be happy to help out and evermore so would be lovely to see you both.
Best wishes 🤗
Our daughter has had the most wonderful time with Chrissy and it was very reassuring that she was always excited to leave the house to go and see her (despite never being cared for away from us before).
Everything about Chrissy’s work for the children in her care is utterly comprehensive and done to the highest standards. Her feedback is amazing and you could not wish for better care for your child.

Hi Eve thank you so much for your kind words it was a pleasure to work with such a wonderful family and im sure i will see you again some time soon it will be lovely to see little J again 🤗
Our third child was with Chrissy from 1-2 before starting pre-school. She was in a great routine, they had fun singing, walking to the park everyday. Chrissy is that caring, silly extra parent that always has time and energy to play - but still being professional and mindful about her learning, independence and speech development. Can fully recommend!

Thank you so much for your kind words was an absolute pleasure working with you please do keep in touch ☺️
Both of our children, our daughter (4) and son (2), spent their pre-school years with Chrissy.
Our daughter arrived at nine months old and as a first time parent both the dad and I really wanted a safe, happy environment for our little one to thrive in. And thrive she did. Chrissy encouraged her in speech and language through lots of song and play. She was a little wobbly on her feet but again Chrissy just encouraged her. Our daughter is now four and thriving. Incredibly verbose for her age and well ahead on maths and writing - a lot of which I put down to Chrissy's attentive care to her interests and her constant speaking and listening and playful fun with her.
Our son started with Chrissy at one and he too has loved it. At first he was less sure of leaving but Chrissy helped him settle very quickly just through making it fun and secure. He loved horses and Chrissy used to send wonderful videos of him getting excited at seeing the horses at St. James' park from Horseguards. He loves cooking (pretend play) and he loved this aspect with Chrissy as well as the social interaction of a few friends. It for sure helped him learn and his speech again is really good. At under two he was speaking short sentences.
Chrissy really does go the extra mile. Working around preferences (we cloth napped our two a lot of the time) and dietary needs. Her communication is excellent and, as others have said, we never felt detached from them as we got regular video and photo updates.
We had to leave London for Yorkshire due to my job otherwise our son would undoubtedly have stayed with Chrissy as we really appreciate all she does and how hard she works to communicate and make the experience of leaving your most precious people with her a positive happy one for everyone.
We always said if we ever had more children we would have wanted Chrissy as our childminder and are very sad to have left the area. I cannot recommend her more highly. We loved our time with Chrissy and feel she is very much part of our extended family.

Thank you so much for your kind words they really do mean so much to me I've loved working with you and the family i will truly miss you all, wishing you all the very best in Yorkshire 🤗
Chrissy was the first childminder I left my son with at 6 months old.
He has been with her for 1 year, we are only leaving as we are moving.
I felt so comfortable leaving my son with her from the beginning, she made it so easy for me. That’s all down to her professionalism & constant contact with me while he was in her care. She knew I was anxious and was more than happy to update regularly with pics & updates.
My son loves going to Chrissy’s & we will be sad to leave.
She has a lovely home environment & is very proactive in giving the little ones fresh air by taking them on walks. She does lots of learning activities with my son too which I’ve been very happy about.
I couldn’t recommend Chrissy highly enough, she is an outstanding childminder.
