Below are the latest reviews for Abi. Please note that reviews represent the subjective opinions of other Childcare.co.uk users and not of Childcare.co.uk.

Abi has been our childminder for our 2year old son for over a year. I can honestly say I couldn't be any happier with the love and care she has given to him. Seeing him run in to the house and forgetting to say goodbye just shows how happy he is there. He also randomly asks to go to Abi's house on days that he is not due to go there.
Abi has a lovely sized house, with plenty of room to play. They are always out and about with one of two other little children; whether it is to a playgroup, park, garden centre, or popping into town. He nearly always has someone of a similar age to play with. Abi ensures he eats well and keeps a diary of what he has been doing each day, what he has eaten etc...
Abi clearly demonstrates her experience and skills by confidently looking after my son and is not phased by much at all! She is able to deal with any of the "terrible two" behavioural challenges my son brings to her, and nurtures the good behaviour he shows. Abi has been brilliant with being flexible in fitting around my shift work.
Due to practical reasons we are unable to keep Abi as our childminder. It is such a shame. Especially due to the loving and trusting relationship my son has with her. I would highly recommend Abi as a childminder.

Abi has been my child minder since my daughter was 6mths, abi was absolutely fantastic when my daughter had some issues abi helped us work through these, which I can't thank her enough. Now my daughter is 5 and a half and absolutely loves her time there and the fun they have. Highly recommend her.

Overall
Abi has been our childminder for the past two years, looking after both of our son's. Fortunately for us my work arrangements became flexible and we therefore no longer required childcare for the boys. It was therefore with a heavy heart that we had to part ways with Abi, and I feel it only fair to leave this review for anyone seeking a wonderful childminder! Abi has always provided a safe, fun and loving environment for our children who were always happy to stay with her. Not only that but Abi has always communicated well with myself and my husband and I am now pleased to call her a friend. I guarantee that if you are lucky enough to have Abi take care of your precious child/children you will not have any regrets, she really is a fantastic childminder.
