Our second child 'E' went to Elelyon (or 'Phoebe's house' to her) for about 18 months before 'graduating' to nursery. Leaving our own house in the morning she could barely contain her excitement that she was going to Phoebe's house! As she got older and more communicative, she would tell us how her 'high for the day' was Phoebe's house! It has been such a relief for us as parents to know that our daughter loved the environment that she was in. We loved getting the daily photos at the end of the day so we could see the activities that she was working on, the stories that she was reading, or which neighbourhood park they had visited that day. We cannot wait for our third child 'H' to be old enough to experience her care; we're sure that she will also love her time at Phoebe's house!

Our eldest child went to Phoebe just after she turned one in 2016, and stayed till she was 2.5. We couldn’t have asked for a more caring person to look after our little girl than Phoebe. Our daughter made incredibly strong bonds with the adults and the other children in the setting very quickly and still loves seeing Phoebe and her team when we walk past. Phoebe treats the kids in her (immaculately clean) setting with such warmth, respect and love, and creates an atmosphere of fun, always promoting learning through play. Her home-cooked meals were always devoured with gusto too, even during fussy periods of food refusal at home!
Phoebe has continued to provide our family with incredible support, coming to the rescue to provide our youngest child with emergency childcare during the last year on more than one occasion. It’s a testament to Phoebe’s skills that he has loved spending time in her setting despite being thrown into the deep end with no settling in period.
I genuinely don’t know what we would have done without Phoebe in our lives over the last five years, and I would not hesitate for a second to recommend her highly to anyone looking for a childminder.

Phoebe has been looking after my daughters since April 2016 (my girls had just turned 2&4 then) and it has been absolutely amazing all the way. She is one childminder that I’ll say genuinely loves children. And my kids love her too. She goes out of her way in caring for them and in supporting me through a career change. Both of my girls are now in school full-time and she remains my rock: from emergency pick-ups from school, to supporting them with their learning and homework, she is simply the best. I don’t know about others but she actually never charged me for the occasional lateness from delayed trains or traffic I’ve never experienced the rest of mind I have enjoyed with Phoebe and I am super grateful. Did I mention that my daughters have asked me to cook certain meals “the way auntie phoebe does it” and I am not a bad cook, you know. She is that good... no regrets from my end. I also found her wealth of experience useful whenever I worried about this rash or that behaviour in my daughters.
I actually like her setting... the open plan carries that aura of transparency and openness. It also means no child is out of sight at any given time. The joy on the children’s faces says it all. Phoebe’s setting is welcoming and her assistants are good too. Esi brings a calming energy to the setting while Rose seems to work magic with the babies. Thank you Phoebe and Team for your genuine love and support for myself and the girls over the years. You will forever have a special place in my little family. Peace, Winifred, Tochukwu and Okechi
