Marion Harding's Reviews

Mary Poppins in real life!

Finding a childminder for your child is always a difficult task. We never thought that we would find somebody to trust as much as we trust Marion.
From day one she made us feel comfortable. Being there, talk with her, watching her interact with our son, was a real pleasure. Marion has a great energy and she is a very positive person.
Following a bad experience with a childminder I gave a very short notice to Marion as I had to go back to work as soon as possible. Marion made whatever she could to help us and to reassure us that everything will be find and our son will be ready and settled within few days. Indeed, our child settled without any problem. We couldn't believe how happy he was when we picked him up the first day. Always, he seems to enjoy the time to the nursery. You can see that Marion enjoys what she does, she loves children and she has a very unique approach with them.
A home visit as part of the settling process is the cherry on the cake!
We feel so lucky to have find her, we would recommend her with close eyes!

Thank you so much for the lovely review, Despoina. Your baby has settled beautifully as one of Marion's Munchkins, and we couldn't be happier with him. I love his cute little grin and we are enjoying all of his happy chats. Thank you so much for choosing me to look after your little one.

Fantastic World of Creativity & Learning from Play

Our son has been with Marion for the past 1.5 years (from age 1 to 2.5) and absolutely loves it. Marion has created a fantastic world with so much varied play and learning. Our son always comes home with new stories and songs that he has learned that day. She created a wonderful, safe, loving world where the little ones can socialise and play together at their own pace. We are so happy with our son's time with Marion, and the only reason we are leaving is because we are moving away from London. Sign up now!

Wow - thank you for such a lovely review. It has been an absolute pleasure and joy watching your little boy develop into the terrific little lad that he is today, and I will miss you all terribly. Looking forward to hearing all about his exploits over the next few months on Whatsapp. Best wishes, Marion xxx

Fantastic Childminder

Our little girl has been with Marion for just over a month. Initially anxious about finding someone who I would be happy to leave her with we visited a number of childminders. We chose Marion as the friendliest, most welcoming and inventive of those we met. After only four weeks our little girl is incredibly happy and has made herself at home.
As part of the settling in process Marion came to play at our home. This meant our little girl knew her from day one. For the first week I received photos to show me everything was fine.
Now I get an update each day and can read the daily update of what's been going on. The children take part in a number of activities including playgroup twice a week, story time, outside play and trips out.
I would recommend Marion as a fantastic Childminder.

Real love and care

My 2 year old boy is looked after by Marion 3 days a week and he has been there for a little over a year. Shortly we will be leaving the UK and going to live in Australia and so we feel very sad for our boy leaving Marion's; its going to be difficult to find someone like her. He is extremely happy there, in fact he shouts with joy when we approach her house and then he runs inside with not even a backward glance at us parents.

When looking for childcare, we looked at three nurseries and six childminders and to us we felt Marion offered the best setting. Its easy to see that Marion and her assistants love children and are passionate about looking after children. Unlike some others, it was evident that this isn't a 'job' for Marion, but rather something she purely loves doing with her day.

She offers up a very personal, caring, fun, educative and safe environment and all the children are very well behaved and enjoy each other's company very much.

We would highly recommend Marion's Munchkins to anyone that is considering childcare.

Thanks a million for this lovely review, Mother!

I will miss your lovely little family - it has been such a pleasure getting to know you all, and to be able to play a role in your son's development.

I will think of you all often, and I wish you and yours ever success with your new adventures.

Big hugs to the wee guy, and best of luck to you and your other half.
