My son is at Hillcross nursery which he loves but was not happy with the wrap-around provider. I found Ros through a parent at the school who said she had been a nursery teacher there and had got on very well with her son. The current nursery teachers also spoke very highly of her as a past colleague. My son started wrap-around care with Ros two days a week and quickly felt at home and exhibited much better behaviour at home as well, saying that he preferred Ros to the previous provider. Ros is very warmhearted and fun, coming up with a lot of different activities from long park walks exploring the local wildlife to a whole range of indoor activities from writing mini books to making their own play dough. I think particularly because he is at the nursery she used to work at and she knows that setting very well she is very good at matching the nursery's activities and the stage he is at. My son is very happy there and loves Ros, he has already expressed disappointment at leaving her once he goes to full-time school so there may have to be a very drawn-out leaving process! Ros does express clear but fair boundaries for my son and he seems to respond well to these too. We are very happy with this setting and with Ros and would recommend her to any other parents seeking a childminder. Only 4 stars for food as we send lunch ourselves but Seth loves breakfast with her and enjoys snacktimes! A great setting.
