Karen is amazing with my boys, she takes them to different places each week, they play and learn, they create lovely pictures and cards on special occasions. They always come home happy and I can rest knowing they are in the best care. She's a huge help to us and we're really glad it's her that looks after our children!

Karen has looked after my daughter for almost 2 years, and in that time I have enjoyed watching my daughter build close relationships with other children at the setting and with Karen herself. My daughter loves attending, in the holidays she will often say she wants to go to Karen's. They are always out and about and each day is different. She provides wide and varied educational experiences.
I think the best thing about Karen's Childminding is Karen herself. She is loving, friendly and genuinely loves looking after the children. I am very thankful that I met Karen and that she was able to look after my daughter in such a super way!
