Annmarie is a beautiful person, and my daughter is absolutely in love with her. She is caring, very good listener to the children' s needs and very passionate for her work. We have been with Annmarie for more than 1 year, and we have been extremely lucky to have her. She is fantastic, and my daughter has grown so much with her. We will miss her enormously, she has been the best piece of our life in the UK in the past 14 months! She prepares nice food everyday, she brings children to play groups and to other nice activities (indoor and outdoor), and she sends lovely pictures of our daughter during the day, so we feel very connected. Annmarie is a very good communicator, and she has supported us in challenging situations. Also, she has such a beautiful family, and my little one is so happy to play with her daughters! I cannot recommend her enough❤️

Giulia thank you , you guys are amazing ; it has been an absolute pleasure getting to know your family and looking after you precious little darling. We will miss you all so much 🤗!
Annmarie was the first person outside of the family to look after our daughter, we were very nervous first time parents! She made her (and us) feel part of the family straight away and our little girl absolutely loved her and her family and home. She is an absolutely fantastic childcare provider who really understands kids and makes them feel safe and loved. She is professional, experienced, warm, loving and kind and supported our little one through things like Potty training, learning to play with others, and all her general toddler milestones. She helped our daughter to grow and thrive. Absolutely 10/10 experience and would recommend to anyone looking for a childminder!!!

Thank you Rhoda ! It is truly a pleasure having your little sweetie.
Im so happy that I found Ann to care for my son for 2 1/2 years. Ann nutured my son academically, emotionally and physically. She treated my son like her own children and my son still asks to go back. She cooked fresh meals everyday and my son was always happy and content when he left to come home. They were always exploring outside aswell as indoor activites. I would receive pictures of him enjoying himself daily and home made goodies & arts and craft that she made with the children. So grateful for Annmarie.

My son has been in placement with Annmarie for over a year, he is now 3years old. Throughout this time she been nurturing and efficient, well adverse with his learning style and needs. We have seen his development through out this time and how well he has progressed. He has been a part of their family.
They have always engaged in lots of activities indoors and outdoors for long treks through walking adventure trails, going to playgroups, lots of songtime, baking, arts and crafts.
We were very sad to see her move from the area and will be missed dearly.
My family and I would recommend her services.

Annmarie is a fabulous childminder who provides an engaging, stimulating and enrichment environment were children blossom and grow. Both my girls thrived in her care, they loved going to her setting as there was day outs, playgroups, parks and fun filled activities. Annmarie is also an awesome cook who provides a wide range of nutritious meal that they enjoyed. I would recommend anyone to join her setting.

Ann Marie has provided us with childcare for more than 5 years. She provided both after school care and early years provision. Ann Marie has a warm and nurturing personality, as a result the children have grown extremely fond of her. She has provided fantastic care to my children, she is extremely approachable and adaptable to the changing needs of my children. My children have thrived in her care in their interpersonal skills and milestones. She has a professional approach to assessing children's progress and communicates this on a regular basis.

Annmarie has looked after my two daughters from the age of 10 months up until now aged 4 & 6. She is such a kind and caring person and my girls flourished in her care.
The day was fun and stimulating and they both learned so much whilst with her. She provides a safe, nuturing enviironment and always puts the children first. She is also a great cook and the girls would always eat well whilst with her. My youngest has severe food allergies and Annmarie was knowlegable and able to cater to this and I always felt that the girls were in safe hands with her.
I really feel blessed to have had her looking after my kids and she has become like part of the family
