Danielle is the most loving and caring childminder, she welcomed my 1st son when he was only 6 months old as I needed to return to work and she made the transition very smooth as I never worried. At the time she also had an 8 month year old and I loved the idea of the little ones growing up together and him having another baby his age. As he has started speaking he really loves 'Dan Dan' and has never had an issue settling in or leaving me (which I am only taking as a good thing :)). They eat well and always find new activities to do. There isn't a garden but thats never been an issue as Danielle is so active with the kids. She always keeps you updated with photos from the day and really looks out for all the children she cares for. We have been so happy for a year and are only having to leave due to location and work commitments.

My daughter has been going to Little Leaders since January and is still currently attending the setting 4 days a week. We are very happy with the service and the care she provides; especially as my daughter has complex feeding needs - my daughter is very happy and didn’t take long to settle at all. I would recommend her to other parents for sure.

Danielle is a kind and loving childminder who has made it so easy for our 18month old daughter to settle in with her.
She tailored the settling in days to suit the needs of our daughter and worked around us. This means that now our little girl loves going to see Dan Dan. She feels comfortable there and enjoys her days there. Danielle makes sure they get out and about everyday as well as having lots of fun activities to do in the house. She communicates very well sending updates via pictures and informing us of what she’s eaten and her naps during the day.
It is clear by the way she interacts with our daughter that she loves her job and enjoys what she does.
