We've hit the jackpot with Mandy

Our daughter (16 months) has been with Mandy for five months so far, and we feel so lucky and happy with the care she receives. Though she found the initial settling away from us a little difficult, something which Mandy really helped us all through, our daugher instantly warmed to Mandy and felt comfortable in her home nursery - as did we.

Mandy plans a wide range of different activities both in and out of her home. They all go out almost every morning, whether to local playgrounds, to explore nature, or some other carefully chosen trips out. At home they do a range of activities, including crafts/art, music, books, etc, and always with a view to the children learning in a fun and varied way. Our daughter learns so much in Mandy's setting, and we love receiving updates on what she's been doing that day, and always feel confident she's being well looked-after, in and out of the home.

Mandy gives the children a really varied and healthy range of home-cooked meals and snacks, with a different menu daily and changing each week. Our daughter is a very happy eater!

Mandy is diligent, thorough, and very professional - but with the children she is warm, fun, and manages any behaviour issues kindly and calmly. Her communication with us is caring and clear. We trust her completely and feel incredibly lucky to have her as our daughter's childminder. We already worry about what we'll do for a future-hypothetical second child, if Mandy might not be available!
