We placed our son Tristan Mullard with Pat from January to December 2013, he attended 5 days a week. We switched him from a nursery which he had attended from 10 months to 14 months. We were unhappy with the care that he was getting at Nursery as he had gone from a confident, sociable little boy to a very melancholy boy who was repeatably ill with nasty things like tonsillitis and sick bugs.

Within two weeks of switching Tristan to Pat’s care, he started to become more sociable and confident again. He also started walking within just a few weeks and was rarely ill. It was clear that he loved going to Pat’s and seemed to thrive in her care.

We would happily recommend Pat as an excellent child-minder, who clearly loves what she does and in turn the children she cares for love her! Since moving house (hence why Tristan is no longer with Pat), Tristan still talks about her and likes to look at photos of her and the children she cared for with him.

I am happy to be contacted should you have any further questions relating to this reference.
