We are so grateful to Leonie for the amazing care and love she gave to our daughter for the two years she was with her. She very quickly became an extension of our family and we all adored her. Leonie is such a wonderful and warm person and she provides such a nurturing and enriching environment for all the children she cares for. Our daughter had some wonderful experiences with Leonie and made some magical memories. She still speaks very fondly of her Nini.
Leonie looked after our son after school a couple of days a week - our son really enjoyed his time with Leonie. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Leonie to anyone.
Leonie has been a truly fantastic childminder for my two daughters over the last few years. She is warm, friendly and creates a safe and inviting environment for the children. With daily park visits, trips to local attractions and lots of outdoor play, my girls were always busy. We can’t recommend Leonie highly enough and feel incredibly lucky to have had her as our childminder. She is 100% reliable and incredibly knowledgeable as both a childminder and a parent.
We cannot recommend Leonie highly enough. Our daughter spent nearly 3 very happy years in her care, and it was a wonderful experience for her (she still talks about those years often, and with much fondness). As parents we couldn’t have asked for a better start for our daughter, we felt so happy and comfortable leaving her each morning knowing she was cared for so well and she was having such lovely time. Thank you for everything NiNi!
We are always happy to – and did – recommend Leonie to others as our son had such a happy time with her.
Our son spent over two years at Leonie's; he settled in very quickly and continued to enjoy going there. Leonie has a great rapport with all the children she looks after and is very affectionate with them. She was also helpful when it came to practicalities like potty training and encouraging him to try a range of foods.
He often brought home drawings or artwork that he'd created while at Leonie's, they regularly baked and there was clearly a full range of toys available. We also liked the fact that she always made an effort to take the children out and about, whether to the local parks or further afield on outings. Before lockdown, we would often see Leonie at the local library and our son would also talk about the books he had read at Leonie's.
Leonie is the best childminder we’ve seen. She looked after both of our kids and she is absolutely amazing. Of course, she has lots of experience on taking care of kids, also very helpful for parenting suggestions such as potty training. We can feel she sincerely loves all the kids from heart, she reads them lots of books, teaches them good manner, positive attitudes, she took them to many nice places during the day such as NT, botanic garden, local garden center and parks…. My kids had lots of fun with her, sometimes when we visit these places during the weekends, my kids always very excited to show us their secret routes, what did they play there… I still remember few years ago when she looked after my older son, there was an unplanned snowy day. And they made their own little “ski board” on that day; it was so much fun they had together. She had grown them so happy and confident about themselves. Both of my kids love her a lot!!!
It was so lucky to have her look after our kids. We would highly recommend to everyone who needs a childcare.
Leonie is just the most wonderful childminder you will find. We feel so lucky that we found her. She has been looking after our son since he was 10 months old, and he is now 3 and a half. She was brilliant at helping him settle in and on the very few occasions he cried on being left she would send a picture of him beaming less than 10 minutes later. He absolutely loves going to her and gets very excited when it's a "NiNi day".
They do loads of fun activities - trips to the botanic gardens, national trust places, the library, the playground, baking, stories, art and crafts. He always comes home full of excitement about what they have done.
She is incredibly helpful and supportive and has helped us navigate parenting challenges such as potty training with kind and patient advice.
She is completely brilliant, totally reliable and we really can't recommend her highly enough.
