Absolutely Incredible

Pam’s Daycare has been absolutely fantastic for my little boy who attended from the age of 16 months to 3 years.
Pam and Tonio became like family to Albie, and they always welcomed him into their setting with open arms. They really do go above and beyond to ensure that each child has a brilliant time. They take the older children out on day trips to the park and to soft play, and also invite a variety of external teachers such as “Dancing with Izzy” and “Musical Oren” to come and host classes and create even more fun for and variety for the children!
Tonio also sets up a big bouncy castle in the warmer months so the children can enjoy the sun and have fun with their best friends.
Pam and Tonio really do dedicate so much of their time to ensure that the children are looked after so well. They cook a variety of home cooked meals every day (breakfast, lunch and dinner is all included) Albie loved their Chilli Carni!
Their communication is also exceptional - It was so re-assuring to receive regular updates and pictures of our son to learn what he was doing during his days.
It was also lovely to receive regular arts and crafts that they had helped Albie to create - they are just so thoughtful. We will be sad not to be receiving the Albiesaurus this year ha ha!
Pam and Tonio really are two very special people and we will be so sad to leave their setting.
We would 10000% recommend sending your child there if you get the chance.
Thank you both so much

We highly recommend Pam and Tonio!

We very highly recommend Pam and Tonio! We feel so lucky to have a place where our child is loved and cared for.

They regularly go out and take part in fun activities (park, playgroups, farm, soft play). Our child particularly likes playing outdoors, and their garden is set up so well for outdoor play. In the summer, they regularly have the paddling pool out / water play.

We are kept up to date constantly throughout the day, with photos and notes. Communication is excellent.

As well as this, they've been great at offering advice when we are unsure as first-time parents.

We can not rate them highly enough! They have taken incredible care of our child, and he has come on leaps and bounds since starting there. Pam and Tonio are so kind, caring and compassionate with our child, he loves going to childcare there. 100% recommend!

Amazing Childminding Experience

We have been attending Pam and Antonio's for over a year to care for our now 3 year old, and we have nothing but positive feedback.
Our little one by nature finds it hard to attach to new people, but Pam and Antonio's is really a home from home setting that made it easier to connect to - they are an amazing family with lots of love to give.

They have shown a deep understanding of our little one's development, tailoring activities and learning experiences to interests and abilities. They have been incredibly responsive, keeping us updated every day with notes and pictures and addressing any concerns we had promptly. Our little one even on weekends sometime asks now if we can go to Pam's.

The personal touch is evident in the way they engage with our little one, making them feel special and valued. We highly recommend Pam and Antonio's to any parent seeking a childminding service that goes beyond typical day care and really feels like leaving your child with close friends during the day.

Fantastic Childminder

Our daughter entered Pam's Daycare from the age of 10 months until 3 years old. We could have not hoped for a more safe, loving and nurturing environment for her, and she very quickly settled in.

The day was structured with stimulating activities centred around them learning through fun play. Painting, singing, reading books together, games exploring textures, colours, numbers, emotions etc. and regularly coming home with crafts she had made. Pam's Daycare prided itself on taking them out as much as the weather permitted which is something i found other childcare providers didn't do. My daughter's all time favourite was being part of Tonio's band. Disco's and parties celebrating events and milestones was also a firm favourite.

The weekly menu was fantastic. Food was cooked fresh every day and varied to ensure nutritional requirements were met. My daughter would eat food at Pam's Daycare that we could never get her to even try at home. Her love of watermelon comes from her time at the nursery.

The premises are spotless and all equipment and toys are clean and of excellent quality. Pam is full of energy and charisma - children can not help but warm to her. She ensures all children are involved and engaged including those with a more timid character.

An App documented nap time, nappy changes, meal times etc and photos were provided daily. However Pam or Tonio provided a daily summary on how the day panned out and what she enjoyed doing.

We are so happy that our daughter had this time developing under Pam & Tonio's care. Her confidence and personality has blossomed and I feel that's down to their nurturing environment.

Magic sauce: Pam and Tonio!

We can only thank our lucky stars for having found the labour of love that is Pam’s Daycare: it’s intimate, it’s joyful, it’s creative, it’s loving. The magic sauce is Pam and Tonio: warmer and kinder people you would be at pains to find, and it’s entirely their personalities that makes every morning going there a joy and every evening leaving there a struggle. They have a way with kids that is natural, nurturing and confident, and they are tireless in creating fun activities, making delicious meals, going on excursions, come rain or shine.
If you’re looking for a nursery this isn’t it; it’s a home, and we couldn’t be more grateful to Pam and Tonio for having welcomed our two boys with such warmth into it.
