Denise is wonderful child minder.
I’m mum of 3 year old boy . From the day I first met Denise, I felt I can trust her 100%. I know my child is in good hands, safe and happy. Denise is very warm, helpful and friendly person, who gives us good advise, helps and shares her experience.
My son absolutely loves spending time with Denise in her house and not only. Denise has beautiful, really big garden with slides and swings, bicycles and others garden toys. She can briliantly organize time for children same in the summer and in the winter, doing picnics, games, small trips. That time is time full of fun, activities, and full of physical and mental development. She organised a lot artistic and educating programmes, which my son adores. Activities are always adjusted to age and individual needs each child and always with Denise attendance and encouragement.
My son is with Denise since he was 2 years old. He is really happy, energetic child and Denise can satisfy him. She teaches respect to world and how to behave.
Denise has two lovely friendly dogs, and two lovely cats. She teaches children about enivroment and animals. Children naturally are interested and they develop better, they are calmer, have bigger rescpect to life. She never leaves children with animals together without any care.
Denise is really flexible. She know how to plan her day according to needs of the parents. She takes care of my son from 5:30am, as I have to start our work day at 6:00am. She is able to oganise unplanned hours if care is nedded.
She is really calm , patient, consistent, what is really important for childrens good development. She helped us with potty training by organising charts of prises, gives praises, encourages our son to help him feel proud and confident.
Even if I’m working full time, I don’t miss really important moments of our son’s life. She keeps writing everything what happend throughtout the day, she is taking pictures (we ofcourse agreed with it), keep us updating througt the day by sending text messages, so we know what actually is happening with our child and after back home we can recreate all of our son’s day and also it’s great souvenires for whole life.
I strongly recommented Denise as great childminder.
Overall
Catherine is a loving, caring and very knowledgeable person. She has been recommended to us by our friend. We were very lucky to have her. She was looking after our nearly 2-year-old daughter for over a year, like she would look after her own child. The variety of activities she provides for children is just amazing. Catherine uses a lot of natural products to play and explore (such as sand, stones. feathers, water, flowers, snow, wood) and fun ways to play (lots of walks out in the fresh air, playing/jumping in puddles, exploring living creatures). We were very happy that our daughter could grow in loving and eco– friendly environment. Catherine is helpful, flexible, and always willing to help. Our daughter was very happy to be with Catherine and she was learning new things each day. We were provided with daily feedback and photos of what she had done each day. Dedication and care that Catherine provides is beyond highest standards. I wish every parent looking for a childminder could find someone like her.
