I have been using Emma to look after my youngest daughter for the past few years but the time has now come for her to start school.
Emma is more than your typical childminder working within her own home but with a room designed for the children. Monthly activity/ learning plans, home learning packs with reading books provided as well as all of her knowledge and experiences within early years. This has been a huge benefit as we felt our daughter was getting above and beyond what a preschool could provide and therefore have been able to remain with Emma instead of struggling as parents with the typical 9-3 hours a preschool provide.

In addition to our youngest daughter attending Emma’s setting, our eldest daughter has also been able to attend during school holidays where Emma has gone above and beyond to ensure her needs are met with engaging fun activities provide.

Emma provides 3 meals a day, flexible hours and adapts to the needs of the child. In the long days of the winter months it’s no problem for the children to have that little down time and take a little nap or when they are feeling slightly under the weather, Emma will keep in contact and offer help and advise. And to sharing and celebrating experiences that happen within the day or away from the setting.

A massive thank you to Emma, she’s truly amazing!
