My 8 year old daughter has recently started at Bryony's two days a week before and after school plus some school holiday days. I had no experience of using a child-minder and the whole experience has been a very positive one for our family.

Bryony is super organised and has very clear policies and paperwork. Her home is really child-friendly and welcoming. I was impressed with her experience and ability to cope with anything! Her home and family are lovely and it is clear that everyone has a wonderful time when with her.

My daughter says that she "loves going to Bryony's because there is a lot to do - lots of craft activities and outdoor activities including the tyre swing". She also loves the pets and has really enjoyed becoming friends with Bryony's older daughter and the other children.

The on line system is great allowing you to see photos of what the children have been doing. My daughter cannot wait for Bryony days to come around which I think is a very good sign of how much she enjoys it! Bryony is very fair and kind and sets clear and appropriate boundaries which mean everything works smoothly. Each child is treated very much as an individual which I love.

Can honestly say that I have been wowed by Bryony and would highly recommend her.
