I was so happy to have found her and that she agreed to mind my daughter since it was term time and with the nursery being closed I couldn't work (self-employed). My daughter enjoyed her time there and adjusted very quickly. I get very nervous at the thought of my daughter going on trips to the park or playground especially if she's new to the group and the childminder but Reen ensured me that she had a lot of experience and made me feel calmer about the idea. Thank you so much!

I did the rounds, trawled the nurseries, talked myself in and out of handing my first-born over to anyone outside my family and then I found Sharene.
She is calming, reassuring and has a lovely family set-up so that your child will benefit from intergenerational social interaction. They also have an excellent trampoline, trips out (Covid permitting) and lots of lovely children who are a joy to meet.
My son attended Sharene's for over a year and was extremely happy there (we only left because of the impact of coronavirus on our personal circumstances). He loved them and they were his first friends.
As a new -mum I was appreciative of their care with settling him in (and me), they did a couple of extra one-to-ones at the weekend to help him settle.
They also made suggestions of things that they had noticed for his continued development such as potty training to learning letters and numbers and how to support that learning in a fun way.
We miss them already!

Overall
Reen is an excellent and knowledgeable childminder, who cared for our daughter since she was 5 months until starting pre-school. Reen is great with the kids, focusing on their development and helping with setting up good routines, some of which we would emulate at home.
Reen’s home environment is wonderful, there’s a great garden that kids use for play and games at all times. There are loads of activities such as soft play and visits to the city farm. Reen also organised events for parents and kids such as Christmas parties, summer picnics etc. Reen is also very flexible and accommodated us on numerous occasions.
Reen is calm, caring and patient and she gently teaches good manners and inculcates good behaviour in the children under her care. Kids all seem to love her, including our daughter who absolutely adored her.
I would highly recommend Reen as she is an absolutely excellent childminder who supports parents and children in their development and growth.

Reen cared for our baby son (turned toddler) for over one year before we left the country.
I was looking for a home environment for my son vs a nursery environment. Reen offered just that plus lots of activities and we were impressed with the days out like the city farm and local museums.
I would drop him off at 7am which was amazing for me as I had a long commute.
Our son was happy there. They seemed to have a lot of fun. Food wise, we provided our own.
Would recommend Reen as a childminder!

Reen has been looking after my son for 5 years now, and has never been anything but reliable and professional. She is often available at short notice to accommodate my sometime erratic working patterns, and always puts my son's needs first. On the vary rare occasion that she has has to deal with a personal emergency - as we all have to some time - she tries to give as much notice as possible.
Reen is not just a childminder, she is my partner in the raising of my son, focusing on his development as much as I do.
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her.
