Gill looked after my little girl for 4 years from the age of 11 months. My daughter has now left her care to start mainstream school.

From day one, I felt reassured by Gill and confident when leaving my daughter in her care. I found Gill to be very supportive and understanding of the situation that I found myself in, having to return to work full-time following a period of maternity leave and leaving my daughter with someone new.

My daughter settled in with Gill straight away and was treated like one of the family, not only by Gill but also by the other family members who live with her. Gill ensured that my daughter had access to a good range of activities, both inside and outside of her home including attendance at play groups, Surestart groups and play centres etc. There were also, outdoor activities such as parks, playgrounds and trips to farms and beaches. She engaged in activities with my daughter which allowed her to develop towards early years learning goals. Gill has always provided a good range of healthy food and drinks both inside and outside of her home.

Gill has treated my daughter like one of her own family. She has contributed massively to my daughter becoming the well-mannered, confident, well-behaved and kind little girl that she is today. I cannot thank her enough for what she has done for us and she will always be very special to us.

I would highly recommend Gill to anyone who is looking for high quality childcare in a homely setting by someone who genuinely cares about the children that they take care of.
