My daughter has been going to Pippa’s for over 18 months. Pippa and (Auntie) Ann have a warm caring manner with all the children in their care. Pippa always greets the children in the morning with a smile. Communication between parents and Pippa is fantastic, not only does she keep a daily diary for each child( which goes home daily) but is happy to answer any questions I have about her day. Pippa and Ann are always calm and patient with the children and have clear expectations and this is clear as all the children are happy and well behaved and know what’s expected of them. I also like all the wonderful activities the children do from Art/DT, music time, gardening, baking, outdoor play and a huge variety of toys which are changed daily! Also they take the children to a playgroup 2 times a week and day trips out.
Pippa has always provided wonderful healthy snacks and lunches.
My daughter loves Pippa and Ann( who she call Nanny) and can’t wait to tell me about her day. I love the fact I can see what she has been doing by logging into the online learning journey and seeing all the photos and observations ( EYFS).She has made so much progress and I couldn’t be happier. I would highly recommend her services to everyone I know.

After going back to work full time I decided on a nursery for my Son. However this wasn't for him and he never settled. I turned to Philippa who was excellent from day 1. Both her and Auntie Ann are fabulous with the children. They do so much with the children including days out, crafting, baking, playgroups and all things inbetween. As a result of there excellent care my son has gone on to thrive in school! I cannot recommend or thank them enough for everything they did for him over the 2+ years he was with them. He had should a fun time and I never had to worry about anything as I knew he was in such good hands

After my little boy trying a previous nursery and not settling in, we started at Philippa’s and from day one he loved it! It is a real home from home for the children and Philippa and auntie Ann are so lovely and caring.

Every week my little boy looks forward to going and playing with his friends, They do many activities with the children; playgroup, the park, baking, playing in the garden, crafts, walks at Marbury park etc...
The lunch and snack choices that Philippa provides are also varied and healthy :)

I would definitely recommend Philippa and auntie Ann they are a great team!

Philippa is a wonderful childminder and my son absolutely adores her.
She is very flexible and always willing to help out and go the extra mile.
He's been on so many days out with Philippa - chester zoo, Cheshire show, play barns, farms to name a few which is always nice.
I get so many compliments on how polite and well behaved my son is and a lot of that credit goes to Philippa.

Philippa is an amazing childminder! She has taken care of my little boy for two years now, and when he started with Pippa, he was a shy and unsure in new situations. Now he is a happy, secure, confident three year old who is ready to start pre-school.

Philippa is kind and caring but quietly professional and structured in the care she provides. The three little boys she currently cares for are full of energy and fun, and Pippa ensures they are stimulated and have a great day, every day, through a variety of outings each morning, such as playgroup, farm tots, and craft days at the playbarn. Each afternoon is filled with activities like gardening, baking, crafts and imaginative play. Every festival is celebrated, from Christmas to Chinese New Year and Australia Day, with crafts or foods relevant to the occasion. My little boy comes home with all manner of crafts and tasty treats!

Philippa also takes the children on outings regularly to the park or playbarn, but also to Chester Zoo, the Cheshire Show and 'Monkey World'! They have a much more varied and interesting time than being in a nursery setting, but have the benefits of playing with lots of other children at playgroups etc.

Pippa is extremely flexible and accommodating, which is very important as working parents. We have never had a single worry or problem in the whole two years we have known Pippa, and are happy that our precious baby girl will also be joining Pippa and the gang soon!

Pippa and her lovely family have become part of our extended family and I can't recommend her highly enough!
