Fiona had sole care of our two pre-school children for 3 full days a week, for more than a year when I returned towork after having our youngest. Before that she cared for them once a week (from when my son was a ew months old) and on an ad hoc basis. Due to me deciding to leave work Fiona no longer cares for our children but we consider her a friend to our family for life. Our children adore her and still love seeing her.

I really cannot recommend Fiona enough as someone to care for your child from when they are a newborn and whilst they grow. We always felt completely and utterly happy leaving our children with her and even our neighbours commented on various occasions on how happy the children (and Fiona!) always looked when they were out and about.

Fiona is an active childcarer who will provide a routine which suits your family's own. She undertakes wonderful activities with them which are educational and fun. She is incredibly creative and we would return from work to find lovely pieces of art they had all created together. Even in the rain Fiona was happy to take the children out and about and they had some fantastic adventures together.

As well as providing routine and education, Fiona is an incredibly caring and loving childcarer and provided our children with a wonderfully warm environment. She has a real sense of fun and shows so much patience with children - it is clear that she has a natural gift for her job.

I would be very happy to provide further details by way of a reference for Fiona as I really cannot recommend her highly enough.
