Reliable, kind and fun!

My son went to Gina from 10 months to 3 years. Throughout his time with her he has arrived each day very excited to see her and clearly spent each day feeling very happy and safe, which I think is the best measure of how wonderful a childminder is! Gina's family are lovely and her husband and sons always took time to say hello to and play with my son, he was always made to feel welcome and part of the household. She has a dedicated play room and a beautiful garden for outdoor play. She is also on the doorstep of woodland to be explored and her house is set on a quiet road in a residential area. Although the past year has had to be very restricted due to COVID, Gina ensured each day was spent exploring the outdoors, seasonal activities, helping in the garden with the chickens and outdoor nursery. Gina also has an excellent relationship with another local childminder and they would often meet for outdoor social time. In normal circumstances, Gina often planned trips to parks, the farm, playgrounds, nursery runs and to see the Christmas display at Ayletts which my son loved. She would also attend the local parent and toddler group. Again due to COVID Gina had been unable to provide food due to guidance, but prior to restrictions my son was offered a very varied and nutritious diet. As a parent, it can be difficult to place your trust in someone to look after your child, but I have complete trust in Gina that my son is safe, looked after and loved in her care. I would not hesitate to recommend Gina!
