My daughter Mollie has been in Hilary's care since she was just 10 months old. Like all parents, I was anxious and unsure about handing my child over into a stranger's care. I needn't have worried, as Hilary quickly became an important part of our lives.
On a personal level, Hilary is a wonderfully caring individual who not only has an apparent love for children but a commitment to their ongoing development. She sees each child as an individual and takes an invested interest in their physical, emotional and behavioural development, providing both verbal and written updates to parents. She also completed a little journal each day so that I knew exactly what Mollie had eaten, passed, and taken part in during the day (including her nap times).
In terms of Hilary's approach, what I love mot is her focus on outdoor play (she has a wonderful garden with articifial grass, craft summerhouse etc.) and learn through play approach (she has reading time each day, helps them learn to tell the time, role play). I also loved that my daughter got out of the house on her days, attending local toddler activity groups. Communication is also important, and I always looked forward to my whatsapp pics of Mollie having fun.
Above all of this, however, I always knew Mollie was safe and cared for to the highest standard and went off to work with not a concern or worry.
Truth is, we are devastated to be leaving Hilary due to a home move. Mollie has a very special bond with her and I'm unsure we will be able to find a childminder as loving, invested and intelligent as Hilary. I would reccommend her to any parent.
Hilary is quite simply the best childminder ever. My son Luca has been with her now since January 2016, and she has been the most wonderful influence on our little boy. She has become part of our extended family and we absolute adore her. Luca looks forward to seeing Hilary, Gary and their two boys, Jack and David. He is always talking about them, and I couldn't have wished for a better home and family for him to be part of whilst myself and my husband go to work. I have never once felt anxious or worried, and feel comfortable in the knowledge that Hilary will take whatever step necessary to ensure Luca is well taken care of, and looked after. Luca is a very bright, happy and loving young boy, and whilst I am very happy to take the credit for this, I really do have to say honestly, that Hilary had had as much of a role to play in that as me.
