Our daughter has been attending Angie's since the age of 1 for a little over 2 years. We have been very happy with the care that Angie has provided in this time. Angie goes above and beyond what might be expected of a child minder and seems to never tire of keeping up a full schedule of engaging activities for the children. Our daughter really enjoys her time with Angie, and we are very grateful we can trust Angie completely with her care. She is very caring and patient with the children and has a good attitude to dealing with difficult behaviour.

Angie provides lots of activities for the children she looks after, including many crafts, music time, reading books to them, and trips out to the park as well as larger trips out to Wimpole Hall. Particularly special is the parties she puts on with another child minder for events such as birthdays and Christmas. She regularly buys new toys based on the needs of the children she has at the time to keep them engaged and stimulated. She is very generous with her time and money in preparing activities for the children and buying gifts.

Angie keeps track of each individual's learning progress and spends regular 1-to-1 time to encourage each child in their progress. As well as typical learning activities this included for our daughter taking the lead on her potty training when she was ready, which went very well. We get regular updates from Angie and many lovely photos of all that our daughter gets up to. Angie has always been helpful and flexible where possible when we have needed to make adjustments to our daughter's schedule.

We plan to send our second child to Angie's and would recommend her to anyone!
