Martine has been collecting my daughter from school since last September. I would definitely recommend Martine as an excellent childcare provider. As someone who works within child protection I was cautious about leaving my child with someone, however, Martine was very professional when we first visited her home. She was able to answer all of my questions and assure me that my daughter would be taken care of.

Martine ensures that she gets an update from my daughter's school about how she has been during the day and always feeds back to me with any issues. Martine ensures that my daughter does her reading whilst in her care and encourages the other children to support each other in reading and interacting with each other.

My daughter absolutely loves Martine and I have witnessed new younger children start in her care who at first are very shy and by the second/third week they are greeting me at the door when I come to collect my daughter, which shows they are in a thriving and caring environment.

Martine will enforce any boundaries which I have set with my daughter, so if I say she's not allowed any treats or to watch TV because she hasn't been behaving in school, she will ensure this is done.

During the school holiday's Martine ensures the children are kept active with visits to the local parks, attractions, fun fairs etc. At Christmas time she took the children to the Christmas market in Greenwich on the way home from school, which was a lovely treat and the kids thoroughly enjoyed it.

I would have no hesitation in recommending her services.
