(4.5 from 8 reviews)
Our son started with Fay when he was 9 months old and stayed until he was 3 (when he started pre-school as a taster before starting Reception earlier this year). Fay and her family were so friendly and welcoming and helped us with the transition from home life to a childcare setting. Stanley settled in very quickly and I think that is due to the home based setting and warm and caring environment Fay has created. We received good updates about his progress and development throughout his time with Fay, which included some return over holiday periods even after he had left her setting full time.
Stanley still has very happy memories of his time with Fay, her girls, husband and dog as well as all the friends he made while there.
If you are looking for someone who is caring, reliable and loves creating a nurturing environment for your child / children I would definitley recommend getting in touch with Fay.

Thankyou for your lovely review! It was a pleasure having him in my care and watching him grow and develop into such a lovely little boy. I wish you and your family all the best for the future.
I cannot recommend Fay highly enough! She has been an absolute gem in our lives. My daughter started with Fay when she was just under a year old, until recently as she has started pre-school. From the moment we met Fay, she was incredibly kind, helpful, and supportive. Her friendly demeanor made it so easy for my daughter to feel comfortable and happy in her care.
As a parent, it’s always nerve-wracking to leave your child with someone else, but with Fay, I never had any worries. She created a warm and nurturing environment where my daughter thrived. Her attention to detail and genuine care for the children are truly commendable.
What made the experience even more special was how lovely her own children were with my daughter. They were always so kind and welcoming, making her feel like part of the family. Plus, Fay has a gorgeous dog who my daughter absolutely adored and still talks about!
If you’re looking for a childminder who is not only professional but also genuinely loves what she does, look no further. Fay is simply the best!

Thankyou for your lovely review! It was such a pleasure seeing your daughter grow and develop. I'm sure she will continue to thrive in her new adventure but, she will be missed here by all of us. I wish you all the best!
Dori has started with Fay when he was just under 2 years old; he is now almost 4 and getting ready to start Reception in September.
Dori had a slight speech delay when he started. Fay had been extremely understanding and caring from the beginning and provided various activities to help him develop, and entertain him.
Eventually we have been seen by a paediatrician and Dori was diagnosed autistic. Fay has been right by our side every step of the way, implementing methods suggested by his SEND advisors, speech therapists and paediatric psychologist and staying in touch with them, accepting visits from them at the setting to evaluate Dori's progress.
I've had a different childminder for my older son, and she was also wonderful, but Fay is on a whole different level. She has gone above and beyond for us and Dori and I will forever be grateful to have found her. She has virtually become Dori's second mother and loves him like her own, and my son is happy to go to her every day.
We will be heartbroken leaving her for school in September.
I reccomend her with all my heart. If you want someone where you can leave your child and not have any anxiety or stress about how they're treated and what they're doing, it is her.
P.S. Their Dexter is also the most lovely and gentle and calm dog I've ever seen.

Thankyou for this lovely review! I too have very much enjoyed having Dori to care for. It has been a pleasure seeing him grow, change and develop and being a part of helping with his speech delay whilst working alongside other professionals who too have supported me. I will miss Dori and you too as a family but, its time for his new adventure now. I wish you all the best for the future. Fay x
My little girl started with Fay at 10 months old until now (16 months). We have recently relocated to a different area and we’re so sad to have to leave her settling. I feel so very grateful & lucky to have found Fay. My little girl has developed and grown so much confidence since being with Fay. Her settling is spotlessly clean and I feel confident that my little girl is cared for as well as if she were with family. Highly professional & experienced but with all of the home comforts. Fay has seen us through weaning, first steps & first words.

I have to start some personal details because I feel myself extremely lucky with Fay!
I am a single mum with a lot of problems. I am unfortunately completely alone with my baby girl and sometimes struggle with finances as well. So my life is stressful BUT....
My daughter has been coming to Fay since she's 11 months old, she's now 21 months. Fay is absolutely respectful of my daughter routine. Fay's is really good to help me with her development. I can see on my daughter that she is loves being with the childminder. My daughter is being always well looked after. Fay's family is wonderful and they have an amazing bond with my daughter so I couldn't be happier!
Fay's house is spotless clean and safe. Fay's communications is very kind, polite, friendly. I love the way how she is behave with the children. Fay's always updates me what my daughter has been up to and always gives her best for me. Very helpful with EVERYTHING!
I wouldn't go ever to anyone else. Fay's is make my life easier because the knowledge that my daughter is happy in very good hands... I think this is every parents wish.
So I can't thank her enough what she is doing for us and I will always have recommended Fay highly to other people!

My daughter has been with Fay for almost a year and I cannot fault her. My daughter loves seeing Auntie Fay and has a fantastic bond with Fay's children too. Fay is polite, kind, patient, accommodating and her house is both spotless and very child friendly. Fay also has a fabulous fish tank which our daughter loves.
Fay is respectful of each child's needs/routines. Our daughter has a nut/peanut allergy and I have never once had to worry about her being in Fay's care. Leaving your child with a stranger for the first time is always a daunting experience for both child and parent but we always felt at ease with Fay.
On pick up Fay always updates us on what our daughter has been up to and how she has been throughout the day. We cant thank her enough and have recommended her highly to others.

Thankyou for your review, it means a lot to know parents are happy with the care I give their child. Your daughter used to be upset when she first arrived but, it is so lovely to see her smiley face each time I open the door now. She has come along way over the months she has been with me and I have enjoyed seeing her change and develop into a lovely happy little girl.

My son has been coming to Fay since he was 9 months old, he is now 18 months. Fay has been with him through all his early years development stages.
George absolutely loves coming to the childminders, the smile on his face when I drop him off shows me everything I need to know about Fay.
I know that he is being well looked after and I completely trust her with my son.
Her communication is great, her house is clean, her family is lovely and I 100% recommend anyone looking for a childminder to use Fay!

Thankyou so much for your review. Im so glad you are happy with the care I give your son. I have enjoyed having George in my care and seeing him grow and develop so much over the months.
Fay
I wouldn’t give her a star. The way she speaks to parents is appalling. All she cares about is money and not your child. I would be careful with picking your childminder if you don’t have any suggestions from friends/ family.

Thank you for your review Paige, I welcome chance to respond.
I reassure all those reading this that you will be treated with respect and kindness.
Should you not pay your bill however, yet continue to use my service without payment while ignoring polite requests for your outstanding bills to be settled, you will receive legal notices for payments.
I will also be slightly upset should you enter into a payment plan with me, and once settle it, immediately leave me a bad review here.
I wish you all the best Paige.
