Gemma was a wonderful babysitter for my little girl who started with her at the age of 1 til she was 3. Her home environment is warm and friendly and her children were so welcoming and caring towards my little one. Gemma kept a daily diary which I looked forward to reading everyday to see what they’ve been up to. She was extremely organised and very reliable. My daughter settled very quickly with Gemma and was made to feel part of her family. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better to look after my daughter.

Thank you very much for such a lovely review 🤩

Gemma is warm, friendly, caring, very organised and accommodating. She has been looking after our little son since he was 6.5 months old and she is wonderful with him, he really enjoys time spent with her, always greets her with a big smile. She let him get into a routine very gently in his own time, which was really important to us. She provides a warm and fun environment. Her children are very friendly and caring and have a lovely bond with our son. Gemma is excellent in keeping a daily diary so we know what our son is up to during the day every day, she also sends photos of him during different activities. She takes children to different playgroups, to the park, on play dates etc.
She had no problem is changing working hours for a week when my husband’s work required him to change shift.
She is always smiling and we know that our son is happy, safe and well looked after when he is with Gemma. We wouldn’t want anyone else to mind our baby and couldn’t ask for more in a childminder.
