Our 3 year old son was with Karena for 10 months and he had a great time with her. Karena is a very easy going and experienced childminder. She loves to get outdoors with the kids and keep them active in all weathers, which we loved. Karena was very flexible and communicated well at all times. Her home is spotless and very welcoming for children of a range of ages. Karena was always up-to-date with all of her qualifications, registrations, PVG etc. She was very understanding of the needs of different children and adapted her arrangements where possible to best suit the children she had with her each day and to work with each of the parents on this. You could always tell that she genuinely loved and cared for the children she looked after.

I highly recommend Karena as a childminder. She looked after my son from the age of 1 until he went to school, she also looked after my daughter for the same period of time a few years later. I always found Karena's home to be clean and tidy with all safety measures in place. Karena is a happy bubbly person who interacts brilliantly with the children in her care. Karena always had the children entertained whether it was doing puzzles, playing games, painting, walking, swimming or going for picnics. Karena is an outdoors person and likes to have the children out in the fresh air as much as possible (weather permitting). Both my children enjoyed their time in Karena's care. 100% recommend

Thankyou for a lovely review Eileen
It was absolute pleasure to have both your children, amazing they were.
Great wonders of this job is loving and caring for other people's children from a young age till school and longer is to see their progress & development, turning into amazing children and little part of that is down to the right childminder and you picked me.
When I make a difference to their life's and parents are so happy & grateful, well that is what makes this job sooo satisfying and pleasurable and why I have done it for so long.
Best part is, years later, they never forget you, I love that part.
Miss you all but so good seeing Gracie & Josh growing up into a fine young man & lady.

Karena looked after my baby girl for 2 years. She was fantastic. I went to visit her at her home while she was working and let her meet my little one.
I loved the way she was with the other children she looked after. She was full of life, very fun and caring. You could tell she had a lovely bond with the children and they loved her. That was enough for me.
She was always helpful and flexible.
She is very missed since she moved away.

Thankyou Clare
Appreciate your review, as you know, my house was full of love and your wee sweetie slotted in as if she'd always been there, I miss you both x karena
I knew Karena for over 7 years. I got her to look after my twin girls for 4 years until they went to school.
She was amazing. She helped my little girls improve their learning skills. She was always busy outdoors with them. Very kind, happy, caring and loving. I couldn’t have wished for a better person to look after my wee girls. Going back to work is extremely hard, but It was made a little easier because I knew they were happy with Karena.
She would send me photos/videos of what she would be doing each day. Painting, walks, parks, swimming the list goes on.
I would highly recommend Karena, as would many other Mums from Fort William. She Became a very good friend to me and my partner over the years.
If you need the best look no further.

Awww thankyou Danielle for your lovely review.
Miss my little twinies & you both and so glad you were so happy leaving them with me.
They were both such a delight & joy to look after.
Its no wonder I love my job 😁 x
Karena was a childminder for my little girl for almost 2 years. She was amazing, so caring and kind. She would take Bella out walking pretty much everyday and take her swimming when she could. She helped a lot with potty training and learning to eat herself since karena had her since she was 10 months old. She helped when she was learning to walk. Bella has grown up to be very caring and active and karena is a huge part of why she is like that. Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Thankyou for your lovely review, aaahhh wee Bella she was a wee cracker, loads of funny memories with her, I am so glad I kept a big scrapbook with all my children over 20 years, I have it out all the time to look back on, let new parents see all the amazing adventures and things we did together, Bella is in quite a few those pictures.
She was a bundle of joy with a wee devilish side to her which I loved.
Miss you all x
