Care4Kiddies's Reviews

Caring professional childminder

Karlie is a fantastic childminder who genuinely cares about the children in her care. She looked after my son after school for 5 terms from starting reception. We had just moved to Stevenage and transferred schools last minute before the September term. Karlie was quick to respond to initial enquiries about availability and very friendly. It was easy to set things up and my son immediately settled in her home and on the school pick ups.

My son thoroughly enjoyed his time and was encouraged to use good manners and behave well when in her care. On collection Karlie always took the time to provide feedback which helped to provide a link between the school and us. I would highly recommend Karlie for childminding and am grateful for all her help in supporting my son's development.

Absolutely fantastic

Karlie was absolutely brilliant with my son, he started with her when he was only a toddler up until the end of reception class.
He absolutely loved it and quite often wouldn't want to leave haha.
Not only does karlie have a very safe environment for the children, she also educates them with play so they are ready for the next step of childhood.
With karlie you are always fully informed of what your child has been up to from what they have learnt that day or if they have struggled with anything, to how many times they went to the toilet or how much they had eaten. X
I would highly recommend karlie to anyone that wants the highest quality childcare service.

Amazing childminder - couldn't ask for more!

My 4 year old son has been looked after by Karlie since he was 10 months old.

Over the last 3 and a half years he has developed and grown into a respectful, polite and loving little boy - I have Karlie to thank for being such a great influence and guiding Harrison through his early years.

She provides a safe, educational, fun and loving environment for all her children at care4kiddies - I couldn't ask for a better childminder!

Amazing, professional childminder!

Karlie has been a wonderful childminder to my little girl for the last 4 years. She had her since she was a toddler before school and now she is in junior school. What a joy she has been, very professional and caring for us it was moving from home to home. My child has flourished in her care and she is very reliable! I can't remember a last minute cancellation. She keeps the kids happy and busy and keeps the parents updated and involved in everyday care. I would recommend Karlie to any parent your mind will be put at rest as your child will be in safe hands.

Fab childminder

Karlie has been looking after our son for almost 3 years now. He has been with Karlie since he was 10 months olds for 32 hours a week.
We are so grateful we came across Karlie's profile when looking for a childminder. We can not fault Karlie for anything, she is caring, professional and reliable. Our son quickly built up a strong relationship with both Karlie and her lovely family.
The days are a mix of fun and stimulating activities, with lots of outdoor adventures. He would often come home and surprise us with different things he had learnt that day.
Karlie has always been reliable, and was always flexible with last minute changes in hours.
Our son has recently started nursery and so doesn't get to spend much time with Karlie anymore, he has already told me several times how much he misses her.
I am currently on maternity leave with my daughter but it is reassuring to know we have already found the best childminder for her to go to when i return to work.

The best childcare

I have 2 kids that have been going here for about a year now and both of them love it, all the staff are excellent very caring and loving and Karlie is extremely flexible on days and times and it's very cheap. Before I moved to Stevenage I searched and viewed a few different child care options and found care4kids the most suitable. I would deffinatly recommend them to every one.

Fabulous childminder!

My 3 year old grandson has being going to Karlie full time for over a year now. I cannot rate her or her setting highly enough, she provides a loving & safe environment & is very responsive to every child's needs - it really is a home from home place. My grandson has thrived in her care with lots of positive experiences & made excellent friendships and progress. Thankyou!

great

Karlie has made my transition to working full time an easy one for me and my two children. My boys are happy going to hers even early in the morning.
Karlie is professional, and really obliging with any changes in arrangements I may have to make. Particularly during the bad snow she cared for my son when his school was closed at short notice.
So glad we found her

the best!

i have used a few childminders in the past, my son didn't really settle with any of them and was more often then not unhappy when picked up. Then we met Karlie and all that changed!!
My son never moans about going there, in fact he moans if he isn't going! i like the fact that he has a great relationship with Karlie, she treats the kids like they were her own and she does lots of activities and really keeps the kids occupied and motivated.
she has also been very accommodating as myself and my husband work shifts which change a lot but its never been an issue for Karlie! she always puts the kids first :) Im so glad i found her.
