Michelle has been a godsend. I’m a single parent and I’ve felt SO happy with the relationship she has with my son. From the moment I met Michelle, I loved her upbeat energy and trust her wholeheartedly.

It be a pleasure to care for your son for these past two years.
our working relationship has been amazing .
I Wish your son all best on next adventure at school
Being a young first time mum, I consider myself lucky and grateful to have found Michelle. From the very first day, she made me feel completely at ease with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for children. Michelle has created a nurturing, safe environment where children can thrive. My son has grown so much under her care—his confidence, social skills, and happiness have flourished since he started with her. I will always be forever thankful to have had her look after my son

Ahh thank you so much
I am going to miss you both very much .
Wish you all the best on your journey..
Our 1.5 year old daughter has been with Michelle for 9 months (and counting!). Michelle is the kindest, most considerate person ever and puts so much energy & affection into her child care. She is flexible, has always put our minds at ease, and keeps us in the loop throughout the day with text updates on activties, meal times & sleeping. She has taught our daughter SO much and we now see her as an 'auntie' like figure for our little girl, who just adores her. There are countless childminders much closer to our home in North East London but we just can't leave Michelle now - she's like family, and we trust her 100%.

Awww that so lovely thank you. Looking forward to future with our little lady.
We have been working with Michelle since mid-2023 - for the first year Michelle was looking after both of our children, until our eldest started school in September 2024. Our youngest child is still being cared for by Michelle.
We have found Michelle to be be really helpful, supportive, reliable and trustworthy. Our children have been looked after really well and have been on lots of lovely outings and had lots of fun experiences whilst in Michelle's care. Michelle also works with them on learning activities - her home has lots of lovely toys and is spotlessly clean.
Michelle offers the children a range of different foods and always lets us know what they have eaten.
Michelle's communication is excellent. She consistently provides regular updates (both on message and in person) on what the children have been up to, what they have eaten, their mood etc and provides photos.
Most importantly we know that our children have been happy and felt at home in Michelle's home.
Michelle is very organised and keeps us up to date with any changes in schedule well in advance, so that we can plan accordingly. We have also found Michelle to be really flexible and helpful when we have asked to make changes to hours or days of care needed.
We would not hesitate to recommend Michelle to anyone looking for an excellent friendly and professional childminder in the area.

Aww thank you so much .. it been a pleasure taking care of both your amazing children .
We have just finished up with Michelle, she looked after our little one since he was 12 months and is now 19months. Our little one has done nothing but grow in confidence since being with Michelle. It is with great sadness we part ways, as we moved out from London. Michelle was our first child carer outside of family and so we were worried at first but our son adapted himself to Michelle’s setting very quickly and was super happy to go to Michelle’s every morning! I love the fact that every day they are busy doing an activity (playgroup, park, rhyme time etc)! Michelle is an amazing childminder we could see from the beginning she was extremely experienced and it did not take long for her to know our son very well. I am also very fond of the daily update with all useful information!
We will miss Michelle (especially our son) and hope we will find a childcare as good as Michelle’s setting.

Thank you so much
We are at the setting will miss our little boy soo much.
He such a little character ..
We wish all you the best for the future
Michelle is an outstanding childminder, my daughter has been with her from the age of 6 months old and is now 3. Michelle's home is and always has been warm and welcoming, meaning my daughter was so excited to go there for every session and never struggled to seperate from me because Michelle eased her in so well.
I receive updates from Michelle on all the fantastic activities she does with my daughter and all the places she takes her. My daughter sees it as a home from home, and her children demonstrate her excellence as they too are such nurturing and caring kids.
I would recommend Michelle at any time, she puts a lot of effort into each day with the children she cares for, and nothing is ever too much to ask from her. She really demonstrated all the qualities you would look for in a safe, trustworthy, caring and happy childminder.
Thank you for all of the years of care, making it easier for me to go to work and not feel guilty!

Thank you for your lovely review , I am gonna miss our little princess so much . Wish her all the best at school but I’m sure I’ll see her soon 😀
As a first time mum going back to work full time, I was incredibly anxious about sending my 10 month old son to a childminder for the first time. Michelle was immediately so reassuring and really made me feel comfortable about the whole experience. She formed such a lovely bond with my son and really helped him settle in to the new environment, I felt really safe having her look after him. Finn always enjoyed his time with Michelle, which definitely helped boost his confidence with people outside the family. I truly can’t recommend her enough

Aww thank you
Finn will be missed it been so wonderful watching him develop and grow in my care . And wish him all the best in his next chapter
Michelle has had my son for 2 years from when he was 6 months old. I was very anxious using a childminder as a first time mum but Michelle helped me ease my nerves by updating me and reassuring me. She’s not only a great childminder but I now consider a friend I can always ask advice from for my son. She is very flexible and always happy to help where she can!

Michelle looked after our little Lea from when she was 3 months to 9 months and she has been incredible. Very patient and caring she helped Lea’s development from early stages. With Michelle days are never boring she always plans so many activities indoor and outdoor. Michelle communication and organizational skills are great, it always very easy to talk to and she very helpful. Flexibility one of her strongest points, she helped us so much swapping days and extending her hours when we needed help. We couldn’t have asked for more. She will be deeply missed.
