Eve S

Amazing Day Care

We really like Eve! She takes care of my son every day, and we see so much good growth in him.

Every day is fun. She takes the children to great places like the farm, playgroup, soft play, and the park. Because of these trips, he is learning so much and is always excited to tell us.

At home, my son does many different activities. He is always learning new things and getting better at them. She also meets other childminders. This is very good because my son plays with more children and learns to socialise and share. We can see him becoming more confident and friendly.

She tells us everything. We get updates every day about what my son did and how they are doing. This helps us know about their day and how much they are growing and learning.

We are very happy with Eve. She helps our child grow so much. We tell other parents to choose her!

The most incredible childminder!

Eve has cared for our son since he was just 11 months old, and from the very beginning, she has been nothing short of amazing. As first-time parents, leaving our baby in someone else’s care was daunting – but Eve immediately put our minds at ease with her warmth, professionalism, and genuine love for the children she looks after.
Over the past couple of years, Eve has become such an important part of our son’s life and ours too. Her dedication, patience, and nurturing nature have played a huge role in his development. His language, social skills, and physical confidence have come on leaps and bounds, and we truly believe that’s down to the fun, stimulating, and caring environment Eve creates every single day. Whether she’s taking him to the farm, the garden centre, or soft play, every day is full of adventure, learning, and joy.
Not only has Eve supported our son’s growth, but she’s also been an incredible support to us as parents – always happy to share helpful advice and guidance. She’s been so flexible and kind, stepping in at the last minute when we’ve needed help due to work or appointments, and we’ve always felt completely confident and relaxed knowing our little one is in the best hands.
As we approach the end of this chapter with Eve – with our son starting nursery in September – we are honestly heartbroken. But thanks to her, he is fully ready for this next step, and we know that’s a testament to how well she has prepared him for the transition.
There is no doubt in our minds that we will be sending our newborn to Eve when he is old enough and I return to work. Finding someone like her is rare, and we feel so lucky to have had her care for our son during such a formative and special time in his life. Thank you, Eve – we are endlessly grateful!

Complete peace of mind - Best choice I've made

My daughter has been with Eve for a year after many recommendations and has never been happier. I have complete peace of mind on my daughters days with Eve knowing she is in a safe and enriching environment, with plenty of activities and outings keeping her excited for each day. Eve has such a natural way with the kids that my daughter completely adores her and will not leave each day before she gets to give Eve a goodbye hug.
Eve provides updates on the children's days and informative feedback to support their development. She has been great in helping to ensure the transition to starting school goes well and that my daughter has a solid foundation to start Reception in September.

I cannot express enough how much we appreciate Eve or recommend her enough

The absolute best !

My son started with Eve in September 24. As soon as we went to meet Eve I knew that she was exactly what I was looking for after visiting a nursery and being distraught.
Eve is welcoming and nurturing and you can instantly tell this when meeting her. She cares for my son as she would her own and it’s so reassuring , as a parent all you want is for your child to be happy where they are and without a shadow of a doubt he is with Eve.
Eve gives me updates everyday he is there, they are always out exploring, they literally never stop even at home! He comes home with cards for special occasions and crafts. I literally cannot believe how much fun he has and I’m so happy for him and myself as I can concentrate on work knowing he is in safe hands.
I cannot thank Eve enough for the love and care she gives my son. I am already looking at the school Eve can do drop off and pick ups from as I do not want to lose her !

You won’t find better than Eve

There are not enough words to describe my gratitude for the care that Eve provides for my little girl. Eve has gone above and beyond all expectations in every sense, meaning that I can be completely at ease each day, knowing that not only is my little girl safe, she is reaching milestones, learning, experiencing fun days out and it’s all done with love and care. Nothing is ever too much for Eve, she’s reliable, honest, informative and is always willing to work with me to achieve the next little milestone. She’s kind, considerate and very caring and has been a role model for my little girl.
I toyed with the idea of a nursery setting, ahead of school, when after 20 months of being with Eve, my little girl had turned 3, just because that is the norm. And then realised I didn’t need to. She had everything she needed and more at Eves. With a large group of children socialising through other childminders, following an age appropriate curriculum and so many adventures and visits to different places, I knew my little girl was thriving and nursery couldn’t have offered as much. Eve has had a massive hand in helping to make my little girl grow into a confident, clever, kind, well mannered little human. She’s prepared and ready to move onto the next big chapter in her life, big girl school.

Outstanding Childcare Provider

Eve took on my two daughters when I changed jobs in September 2025. I was strongly recommended her by multiple people on a My Garston page. The entire transition was seamless and both my children have done nothing but flourish since being in her care. My youngest is with her 5 days per week and my eldest attends for school drop off. My children get excited at the end of her road and always run in with a smile and excitement. My youngest adores Eve and it’s so wonderful the see the bond she has grown with not just Eve but the other children in her care. My youngest honestly lives THE best life between farm visits, zoos, play groups, splash parks, soft play messy activities she is constantly being surrounded by nothing but an enabling environment which in return has support her development immensely. Despite my eldest only attending before school it’s amazing how she utilises the time and supports her with school work, cooks breakfast with her (she was very proud to come home be show me how to crack an egg!) and the endless gorgeous mark making activities.

Coming from an educational background myself Eve puts the children at the centre of everything she does and you can truly see how much she cares and adores them as if they were her own. Birthdays, Christmas’, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day nothing is forgotten. She covers all the 7 areas of learning thoroughly and all activities are well planned and thought out. I have and will continue to recommend Eve to any family or friend. Eve is an extension of our family and I will forever be thankful for all the love, care and support she has given my girls and the most outstanding and solid foundation to their education and future development.

Truly a home, from home setting!

Both my younger sons have attended Eve's house, both different ages and with different wants and needs, but both love spending time there - I have to avoid driving past her road when I can, or tantrums will ensue if they are not going to "Eve's house" that day.
Her loving and caring nature allows children to play and learn in a comfortable and safe environment in which they can thrive. The boys always leave her home with arms full of arts and crafts and wonderful stories of adventures with the friends they have made at "Eve's house".
As a working mother, it means the absolute world to be able to leave them with someone in a home setting where I know they will be cared for by Eve like they are one of her own, so I can concentrate on my job without worry. The progress they have made in their early education and social skills is just a bonus.

Amazing Childminder

This was the first time our son was going to a childminder and we were a bit nervous but from our 1st meeting with Eve, we were more at ease. She provided regular updates and had numerous activities to keep our son entertained. When our son is picked up at the end of the day, he is generally insistent on us taking him back to see Eve. He was very excited once he knew he was going to spend the day with her. We look forward to the next half term where he will get to spend time with such a patient and kind childminder.

The Best of the Best

I started my son with Eve in March of 2022 from a recommendation. My son was 27months at the time. I was just starting a new job and was worried about everything. Eve made the settling in period seamless! My son fell in love with her and I could tell he was happy. He is always really excited on days when he’s with her mainly because she has a kind way with children that makes them really comfortable. He gained new skills very quickly with Eve and always comes home to show me.
My son has respiratory issues and her experience with this gave me added peace of mind that he was being well looked after.

Between getting him to try new foods to encouraging his love for animals and the outdoors, making keepsakes on special occasions and encouraging his independence we’re really happy we went with her.

Although my son now goes to Nursery 4 days a week for easier logistics, I’ve still kept one day with Eve just because of the value and difference she has made and continues to make with him and our family.

We couldn't recommend her enough!

The best childminder!

Eve is quite simply an exceptional childminder and I am so happy we found her for my daughter. We had a different childminder for my eldest daughter who was lovely but Eve is in a league of her own. The care, attention and variety of experiences provided for the children is of the highest standard - soft play, the park, toddler groups, arts and crafts, Willows farm plus more all on a regular basis. I get daily updates with photographs and descriptions which are a highlight. Eve is also invested in the development of my daughter, she highlights areas we can work on together and supports her development with relevant activities too. Eve is kind, friendly, professional and a pleasure to deal with, and we think of her as an extended family member. I honestly can’t recommend her enough!
