Gina

The Best of the Best

I am so grateful to have my boy now due to start school September 2024 to have experienced childcare by Gina. My Son started with Gina when he was 1 years old and so he's been with her for 90% of his life! He absolutely adores her and will do anything she says! That's no feat I tell ya! She is a one-of-a-kind, heartwarming, deeply caring and motherly. Sonny comes home well-fed, fully explored-out and entertained when I collect him. He has many stories to tell about the array of beaches his been to, the soft plays and arts and crafts he has done in the day. He has also fostered some lovely and caring relationships with the other children which has allowed him to flourish emotionally and socially. I feel that Gina has hugely contributed to my Sons' confidence levels. I can confirm he has graduated as a very chatty boy!
Gina you have my upmost gratitude, any child that has you as their childminder is very blessed and lucky ❤️

Home from home care 🩵

Gina is what you need if you want home from home childcare. My not so little boy is off to school soon and Gina provided the most amazing care for him before goes to school. She loved him like he was hers and I am so grateful for that.

Gina has a wide range of food available through out the day between breakfast, picnics, hot meals and snacks.
Gina provides a variety of activities and trips out for my little boy, he was lucky to go to so many play groups, playgrounds, nature walks, animal places and many more. He has seen and done so much.

My little boy still always talks about Gina and her family and is always so excited when he sees her. Thank you so much Gina for giving my little boy the best start in life before starting school.

Short term cover which was brilliant

Gina helped look after my 2 year old son whilst our regular childminder was on a few months sick leave.
Gina was brilliant and was so warm and welcoming, he was a little nervous at first with a new drop off but soon come round to the idea and he really enjoyed it there. Gina took him out on lots of fun day trips and he was well looked after. I got regular activity updates and pictures of him having fun which put my mind at rest.
He regularly asks about Gina even though he no longer attends. He made some lovely friends too!
I’d highly recommend her to anyone wanting a home from home setting with a childminder who generally cares! Thank you Gina

One of a kind!!

We have had the pleasure of Gina caring for our children since 2019, she has taught, cared about loved my children as I do and this reflects with their excitement of attending there. They go in happy and come out happy what more does a parent want!
Gina provides daily updates of photos of the children's adventures and you can see the variety of activities they get up to and just how much fun they are having. Gina is very flexible and understanding and always goes an extra mile to help and accommodate. My eldest son cried when he had to leave to go to school, Gina took him to the beach this summer and he had the best time and was over the moon he was able to go back for a fun filled day!
We really hit the jackpot with Gina and I would choose her again and again to care for our children and wouldn't recommend anyone else but her!!
Her two children are lovely and always say hello to us when out and about they have a caring nature just like their mummy. Gina is gold xx

Amazing Childminder

I can’t tell you how anxious I was returning to work after my first born. I spent several weeks looking at various options but just couldn’t find anyone or anything that made me feel truly comfortable… until I found Gina. From our first meeting back in December 2016 to our last day in August 2021, I knew that if I couldn’t leave my children with family then there was no one else I would trust more than her.
Gina is kind, caring and fun loving, to us she wasn’t just a childminder, she became a friend. My children loved every day they spent with her and her family. They enjoyed baking with her, Christmas pyjama parties, garden parties, painting and glueing and glittering, dressing up and trips to the park. They made cards for special occasions, had days at the farm and picnics with friends. Gina helped with potty training, mastering day time naps and fussy eating aswell as helping to teach number, colours and nursery rhymes. The list is endless!
I cannot recommend her enough, it was an absolute blast for my children and a privilege (and in all honesty a relief for me!) to have her in our lives.
