Helen looked after my daughter for a short while over the summer 2012, before i relocated to Bristol.

As a single mum, i was extremely anxious about putting Eve in to nursery, let alone a childminder. Like a lot of children, Eve didn't like me leaving her at first but Helen really put my mind at ease, she's really understanding and worked with me to encourage Eve by learning new skills, speech etc. In fact, it was Helen who taught her to drink from a cup properly!!

Her house is beautiful, and full of a wide variety of toys, activities etc. The garden is brilliant, a good size and fully enclosed so no one can see in! It's in a great location too :) Helen is a brilliant childminder. She's always very positive and has a very fair attitude towards childminding. I just wish she lived in Bristol!
