We have been using Lucy and Jamies for the best part of 4years now for both of our children, and what a great choice we made! A home from home where they felt comfortable and cared for, with lots and lots of fun too.
Lucy and Jamie make a great effort to ensure that come rain or shine the children have an activity to do, whether that be a park, playgroup or at home arts and crafts. A variety of choice to ensure they are being exposed to all sorts of new things.
So gutted our time has now come to an end!
Would highly recommend!

My son came to Mayflower in January and the care has received has been amazing. He has been made to feel like part of the family. My son’s confidence has grown massively since being with Mayflower. He has always lacked confidence in stairs and climbing and Jamie and Lucy have made a real effort to encourage him and help him. The activities they do are so good and the amount of time they spend outside i love. They send pictures everyday and give regular updates on what they've been upto. I could not recommend enough. Thank you Jamie & Lucy!

We feel so grateful to have had Mayflower in our lives for nearly 4 years, our first who started in 2021 and our second who we managed to switch in! Incredible set up, great people and always going out come rain or shine which I loved! So gutted to be leaving you, I can’t believe it’s time already! But if you’re looking for a trustworthy, home from home set up, Mayflower is the one for you.

After working in nurseries for years I was a huge sceptic when it came to childminders, however meeting with Lucy and Jamie that all changed!!!
Our daughter was with Mayflower for just over a year and they were nothing short of amazing! The bond that she built with the both of them was instant, with a home from home feeling she would run into the house without looking back and didn't want to leave at the end of the day.
The communication was clear, open and honest, with photos each day showing us what she had been up to.
Even with allergies they always made sure that she was included and never felt left out.
We are so happy that she has Auntie Lucy & Uncle Jamie that I am constantly recommending them to anyone I speak to and will continue to do so!

Lucy and Jamie have been truly amazing throughout the entire settling in process for my daughter.
I was finding the prospect of returning to work very daunting, but Lucy and Jamie helped reassure me that my daughter would adapt well to the new routine and environment.
As soon as we visited Mayflower, it felt warm and welcoming. Their set-up is fantastic and shows how passionate Mayflower are about what they do. My daughter instantly felt comfortable exploring their well-stocked playroom. Lucy & Jamie both took the time to explain their set-up and the rules they have in place to ensure the children’s safety - this was very reassuring for me and my partner.
I was quite anxious about my daughter’s transition into childcare but Lucy and Jamie were very understanding and patient, which helped ease my worries.
During my daughter’s settling-in period, Lucy and Jamie would send me lots of updates / pictures to reassure me that my daughter was happy and settled. It also meant that I was able to see all the fun activities my daughter got involved in which was lovely. They have also been very happy to provide me with additional updates when I have felt anxious.
Mayflower have been proactive with suggestions to help with my daughter’s sleeping and mobility - they really do care and this makes such a huge difference. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since joining Mayflower! She is now chatting away all day and a confident walker.
Mayflower always try and include outdoor trips for the children everyday, along with playgroups and other fun activities. I have particularly appreciated all the arts and crafts my daughter gets to do during the day, and it is lovely to see all of her work at the end of the day/week.
I cannot sing Mayflower’s praises enough. They have been so understanding and patient which I think is why my daughter settled in so well. They are a brilliant childminders and I would recommend them to anyone.

Our daughter has been with Mayflower for nearly 6 months and we cannot recommend them enough. Lucy and Jamie have created an amazing home from home setting. Our little girl was apprehensive to start a new setting after being with her previous one for so long but Lucy and Jamie made the transition happy, exciting and easy for her and she was running in without saying goodbye before we knew it 😊.
The thought that goes into the daily trips out and activities within the setting is second to none. Our daughter has made lovely friends with the other children and can’t wait to see everyone each day she attends. We love receiving the daily photos and seeing what they are doing and achieving whilst at Mayflower. With the help and encouragement from Lucy our little girl can now write her own name 🥰.
We would highly recommend Mayflower for anyone that is looking for a trusted and respected childminder 😊

Mayflower is such a brilliant childcare setting! The days activities are always so well thought out and we love that the children go outside to explore new places every day, although the indoor space is also incredible!
We’ve seen such positive growth with our child since she’s been attending, her communication skills have increased incredibly quickly and we love that there are always a good but not overwhelming number of children to interact with each day.
The communication between Lucy & Jamie is extremely clear too which is so key to forming a strong and trustworthy relationship. We and our child love Mayflower and feel incredibly lucky to have found them, I would and have recommended them to anybody.

My 16 month old has been with Lucy and Cheryl at Mayflower for 6 weeks now and I can’t fault the care and attention they have given him in helping him to settle in to their lovely setting. It was obviously a very difficult decision to make to leave him and return to work and Lucy immediately put me at ease that he would be well looked after and helped in getting used to his new surroundings. Lucy is great at keeping me informed on his activities during the day which has made my return to work so much easier. Knowing he’s having a lovely time doing lots of activities and seeing the photos of what he’s up to is so reassuring. The facilities on offer are wonderful and Jack has loved playing in the enormous garden and exploring the well-stocked playroom as well as going on lots of different outings. Jack’s confidence in walking and communicating has come on enormously in such a short space of time and I’m very much looking forward to seeing how he continues to develop under Lucy and Cheryl’s care.

Mayflower have been an absolute blessing. My son began going there at 13 months and Lucy and Cheryl were so patient and supportive during the settling in period. 9 months on and my son absolutely loves being with Mayflower, he is learning quickly, making friends and is happy and excited to be there. The Mayflower family is very special, the environment and facilities are exceptional and I often wish I could go in and spend the day instead of going to work!
I woul highly recommend Mayflower for their professionalism, care, warmth and the amazing positive impact they are having during my sons early life.
