My Daughter, has been with kirsty since she was 12 months old. In my opinion she is an excellent childminder. This is both in terms of how happy my child is and how well she has developed under kirstys care.
She is very experienced, has a natural talent and empathy with children and has put a great deal of effort into developing her skills with a wide range of training courses.
She is very good at noticing which toys and activities she enjoys and lets me know
She is very observant about her development and good at keeping me informed.
She also provided a very healthy environment
Examples are:
• The high standard of cooking and range of foods – especially fruit and veg
• The amount of outdoor exercise she gets both outside her house and walking to school etc.
• She provides a wide variety of stimulating activities.
Kirsty helped me feel at ease leaving my daughter with her. I had severe separation anxiety due to the loss of my daughter prior to having scarlett. I was obsessive and compulsive about every aspect of my daughters life. Kirsty has done so much more for my family than just care for scarletts needs. With me feeling so at ease with scarlett being in such an amazing environment it helped us both to slowly overcome obstacles that had built up due to my obsessive behaviours. I have had other childcare for my older children throughout the years and nothing comes close to the care and attention that Kirsty has given and continues to give.
