I was always a parent who wanted my child to go to a nursery setting as it was busy and bustling with people. How wrong was I?
I originally tried to settle my son into nursery and it was just overwhelming for him ,so I looked for alternative childcare.

I didn't look for Ester, God put Ester in my way. I have visited a few playgroups and activities with my son during maternity leave and saw Ester with a little girl a few times. The way she cared for this little girl I thought it was her own or at least family. When I found out she was a childminder and not the mother of this child I had to take her number.

Long story short. I contacted Ester to see if she had an availability for my son to start with her. Luckily she did. She was very quick at communication and invited me to her home nursery at a time suitable for me for me to view and ask any questions.

I love her home cosy setting. Well equipped with fun toys and apparatus for babies.
I knew straight away I wanted to settle my son with her. It took my son maybe a day to fully settle with Ester. He is so content with her it melts my heart.
She cooks lovely home meals, will provide food that your baby likes, goes on little outings. It's like home from home.
I fully trust Ester with my son as I have been blessed with a six sense and I get a really good feeling when I leave my son with her. He is happy and content when I collect him. Ester daily sends me updates on my child's activities for the day. I'm so lucky God put her in my direction.

HOME NURSERY
Clean and well equipped. Lots of toys and books to keep little ones entertained. Child proof kitchen area for messy play and eating. Ester also is buying new toys to keep children entertained.

SLEEP
Ester provides travel cots and a nice blackout setting with white noise if that is a choice. So cosy and warm.

FOOD
Ester provides nutritious home cooked food and will provide healthy snacks.

COMMUNICATION
Communication has been faultless. Quick to respond and it very accommodating to times. Very organised with paper work and fees. Pictures and videos of daily activities. If I call her when I am work she always answers/responds within minutes.

I would definitely recommend Ester to any parent who would like their child to go from a home to home setting. Ester is loving and caring and is very dedicated to her job.
My review probably doesn't do Ester justice. But she is a brilliant childminder and I'm so blessed I found her. ☺️
