Deana is so amazing with our little one -he loves going over and she’s always doing some activity with him. He’s learning so much and really loves it. Deana is extremely reliable and has been really flexible with us as well. Her girls are really good with all the kids and he loves going over to see them. We get a regular update and Deana also sends us videos and pictures of what he’s been up to-we’re so happy with our choice of childminder.

We have a 2 year old and he’s been with Deana since last August-this was his first experience away from us ever. I can not recommend Deana and her amazing, caring daughters more-my little one loves going over to them. He’s developed so much since starting and he’s such a confident boy. He’s happy, safe, stimulated with lots of activities and learning so much. Absolutely the best experience we could have asked for-we would never think of moving him except that we’re relocating.
