First Care Childminding's Reviews

Childminders

I found a lovely childminders Garnett & Pat. (Its very rare to find a couple that do it)
I have been very pleased with them, made me & my girls feel welcome, my daughters settled in very well.

They only live 10 mins from my house, which was perfect and 2 mins from the local station.
They have been like second family for me & girls.
This is first Ive ever used childminders and I was happy with the people I choose.

Glowing review for Pat & Garnett

Pat & Garnett were my daughter Jessie's childminders from September 2010 until August 2011.

Jessie loved going to their house and was always happy to get there in the morning. She was taken out every day she was there, either to the local library, one of the local children's centres or the park and this helped build her confidence and social skills. She didn't watch TV while she was there, for which I was very grateful.

I would always feel welcome when dropping Jessie off and collecting her - never rushed. Their home was always clean, safe ( Garnett used to work in Facilities Management and is an expert in this field!), totally child friendly and contained a wide range of toys and activities for all ages.

Pat would keep me up to date with what Jessie was up to during the day, so I knew where she's been, what she did there, what ate and how much she slept. She did this by text message which was really helpful as I was often in a rush to get home at the end of the day and didn't always have time to go into details about what she'd been up to.

I would not hesitate for a second in recommending their childminding services. They are warm, kind, brilliant with children and took Jessie's well being extremely seriously.

I cried when they stopped being able to look after Jessie, and it took me a long time to find anyone who was even a patch on them.

Pat & Garnett - first class childminders!

Pat and Garnett have done a brilliant job caring for our 1 year old twin boys for the last few months for 2 days a week. They are both very calm and kind people and the boys are always happy in their care. They take the children out every day to a childrens centre, park or library and when at home, they play, read to and sing with the children, always encouraging their development. They never resort to the TV for entertaining the children, preferring to play music and encourage creative playing. Their home is immaculately clean and safe. All toys and books are new and continually added to! The food prepared for the children is healthy and according to parents wishes. I would highly recommend Pat and Garnett to anyone looking for childcare in the Tottenham area.
