We begun looking for a childminder or nursery around a year ago, and didn't have much luck. Desirable nurseries were either fully booked with a year or more waiting period or they didn't measure up to our requirements. We pursued childminders foremost, as, they would be able to offer the best care and not spread thin with staff to child ratios found in large nurseries. My partner found Kitz, and was immediately won over by the supremacy of her qualifications and reviews. It took a bit of back and forth as due to covid, things were a little uncertain to say the least. Eventually lockdowns eased and we met. Kirsten and George are such lovely and warm people, and with being offered a place, we couldn't have asked for a better match. They have a lovely home geared towards a safe and fun place for children to be. Their own kids are happy to help out and open their rooms to the children to come in, explore and play music with them. They go on daily walks to the parks, sing songs, enjoy storytelling and generally do things that little ones enjoy. Our little guy took very little time to settle in (despite the vast change incurred in his life experience to that point), and would mention their names and get excited on the journey over. If you are granted a spot to this childminder, you will not regret it. We are very blessed.
