My little girl has been with CheekieChops since she was 10 month old, she is now 2 year old and absolutely loves it!
Dropping her off was always a worry of mine before we started but she waves bye to me at the gate before we even get to the front door which is such a relief knowing how much she enjoys to be there and is comfortable with everyone and the environment she is in.
My little girl has learnt so much and comes home with drawings, painting or handmade gifts for me which I love!
Michelle is so flexible, approachable and caring and I couldn’t ask for anything more! I would 100% recommend to anyone!

Thanks
CheekieChops have looked after both of my boys from 8 months and we have now been with them nearly 6 years!
I feel so reassured knowing my boys are there and they love being there too. They have provided some amazing experiences for them and they have also met some great friends who also attend. Michelle definitely makes life easier for working families and her flexibility and support goes above and beyond! Thank you!

I have used Michelle as my child's childminder for 2 years until my little one started nursery, lovely and friendly and my little one always came home with a happy face and pictures, would highly recommend.

Thanks ☺️
Michelle and her team at CheekieChops welcomed both me and my son Henry (2 and a half) with open arms. During the 10 months he was there, they provided a lovely, homely environment for my son, so that I always felt happy leaving him in their care. My son was always eager to go in every morning, which really says it all! They encouraged him in many things such as eating, speech, creativity, writing and independence. Henry has came on leaps and bounds from being at CheekieChops and we will both miss Michelle and her team very much. Would definitely recommend to anyone, they are brilliant! Thanks Michelle!
