Debbie has been the most wonderful childminder I could have asked for and will be sorely missed!
I had visited a few childcare settings before her, but as soon as my Son met her he was smiling and giggling - the only person he did this with during our search. I knew that she was the one!
My Son stayed with Debbie from 4 months up until 10 months and her house became like a second home for him. He was always happy when I came to collect him and we never had a traumatic drop off.
Debbie was amazing at putting my mind at ease during those early days when I struggled to be apart from my boy. She has always been great at maintaining contact, always giving me updates throughout the day and sending my pictures which I will treasure forever!
Debbie always respected my decisions as a mother, whether that be storing my breastmilk for his feeds, working with me during the weaning process and asking me before introducing new foods.
My son will really miss seeing not only Debbie, but her family too. Her family really are a credit to her. I would send my son here again in a heartbeat but we had to move out the area, unfortunately! Finding another childminder is going to be tough when we have Debbie to live up to!
