We are so thankful that we came across Gina on this website! Choosing her to care for our daughter was the best decision we ever made. You only have to look at all the photos she has in her home of all the children she has cared for to know that she adores them.
Gina always welcomes us with smiles, warmth and positivity and is genuinely such a kind and happy person who has welcomed Marlowe into her family home. It's the best feeling to be able to leave your child with someone you trust and not even question if they are happy, safe and being properly cared for.
When Marlowe knows it's her day to see Gina her face lights up and she starts naming the whole family (Dan, Connie, Grace & Dave the dog), which is testament to how Gina and her family have created a home from home for the children in their care.
A few other important things to note:
Gina is a great communicator. She keeps us updated with beautiful photos and texts when needed.
She has a fantastic outdoor area with great provision.
She plans brilliant activities week after week - welly walks, cooking, arts & crafts, water play, small world - the list goes on!
My little tot (3 and a half) started with Gina a few months ago. Gina is always friendly, happy and outgoing it is evident when you arrive that all the children simply love her, including Connor. He was very shy and reserved, but she has managed to make his confidence shine over the weeks to the point where I have had many comments on the amazing change in him.
Gina keeps us updated on their routines, playtime and activities with photos and feedback. Connors always coming home with special crafts he’s very proud of. She is flexible, hardworking and makes you feel part of her little family.
If you’re looking for someone to entrust you precious bundle with, I cannot recommend this lady more, she is simply made to work with children and I commend her on a fantastic job.
Gina has looked after my 2 boys since they were babies (5 and 3 now). The moment Gina opened the door to me on the day we met, I knew within 3 seconds she would look after and love my babies.
Both my boys are clinging but I’ve never felt sad handing them over to Gina, because I know they’ll have heaps of fun and be loved.
I can’t thank Gina, Dan, Connie, Grace enough for making my boys and I feel like family. I wanted my boys to be cared for in a loving home environment which is exactly what Gina offers.
My son has been going to Ginas since he was 9 months old and he's now 3.
Gina is a fantastic childminder who generally cares about you're children and their welfare.
My son can be very clingy on occasions and sometimes needs extra attention when i first drop him off.... she's deals with this really well and I never feel worried about leaving him.
Cheeky Monkeys, the group that Gina runs is a great group for the children , its gives them space to play, learn and mix with other children.
Gina gives you regular updates via photos to you personally and the app little Footprints which Gina uses, shows you you're child's progress and photos of you're child doing activities.
I would never hesitate to recommend Gina she is fantastic childminder and a my son adores her.
My daughter has been going to Gina for the last one and a half years. She has welcomed me and my daughter with open arms in to her home. My daughter Settled in very quickly and well. Gina Is very good with her as my daughter can be a little handful at times. I’m very great full for that. As a working mother I can Rely and trust her that my daughter is in good had. My daughter school morning starts with “are we going to Gina’s”. Gina is very Flexible with overtime if I need my daughter to be with her extra hour’ she is happy to help. She is a very kind and caring person I can see that Through her work.
