We had the absolute pleasure of having Marie as our son Ethan’s childminder for over a year, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the wonderful care she provided. Marie’s home is always impeccably clean and thoughtfully arranged, making it the perfect environment for busy toddlers to explore and learn.
Marie goes above and beyond to engage the children in a variety of activities. From exciting outings to large parks, strawberry picking, and trips to the beautiful lavender fields, Ethan was always exposed to new experiences. Every day, he came home with creative craft projects he was proud to show off, reflecting the fun and learning he had throughout the day.
What truly sets Marie apart is her dedication to teaching the children in her care. She seamlessly incorporates lessons on colors, shapes, and numbers into their daily routines, ensuring that they are not only having fun but also building important foundational skills.
Under Marie’s care, Ethan has absolutely thrived. He has grown in confidence, curiosity, and creativity, all thanks to the nurturing and stimulating environment she provides. If you’re looking for someone who will not only care for your child but also help them grow and develop in a loving, engaging setting, I cannot recommend Marie highly enough. She is truly a gem!

I have had both my boys with Marie over the last few years and she has been amazing. Her home is warm and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Marie goes to a lot of effort to give the children a fun and varied week. They have a fun and social time, from crafty Mondays, to playgroups and lots of lovely outings. She allows them to experience loads of different things and have a lot of time outdoors too.
She is great with communication and feedback on your child’s day.
My boys have been so happy at Marie’s and have made lovely little friends too. I highly recommend her!

My little one started doing full days with Marie when she was just 12 months old (she's now 2.5 yrs) and has absolutely loved it since day one. Every morning she wakes up excited about seeing Marie and the other little friends that she has made there. The setting is welcoming, friendly and extremely well organised. Marie takes the children on trips everyday - playgroups, parks, softplay, farms, playdates with other childminders and even strawberry picking in the summer! Communication is excellent and Marie always gives a full handover at pickup detailing naps, food eaten and all the fun they have had. Having previously sent my eldest son straight to nursery at 12 months old, I feel that Marie's in comparison has been a lovely gentle transition into childcare for my daughter. A loving, calm, relaxed environment - still with a loads of activities and fun thrown in. A real home away fro home!!! Highly recommend.

I am so happy that I found Marie for my busy little boy! She is so sweet and really cares about giving the kids a fun day. She takes them on outings and arranges to meet other childminders so they are always having fun and seeing other kids. She’s also very on the ball and my son has never once had nappy rash after a day at Marie’s! This is saying something! My little one loves her and I have felt so comfortable leaving him in her care.

Marie was great for us. Communication was great to get childcare set up for our 5yr old and she even did a session together before he started to get used to it.
She picked up our son from school every Wednesday and looked after him till 6pm. My son had such a lovely time there every Wednesday. He always came back with things he’s made or coloured. Was always so excited to be going to Marie’s!
Marie is a really caring and excellent childminder I would really recommend her to anyone.
