Ros15's Reviews

EXCEED A STANDARD!!!

I can’t find the best word to describe Ros and her family. Jun, my 15m old son, started with Ros from when he was 12m. We’ve been searching through different CMs around the area but we both knew that Ros was the one at our first visit to her place. Many of CMs welcome you and try to give the info about how well they run the daily programme but Ros, she greeted my son first and try to engage with him. We didn't even needed trial days as my son loved being with Ros from the first day. Since then, I am noticing my son's enormous developments - both physical and intellectual. Combination of indoor and outdoor activities, exposure to new things, there is no time for being bored. Ros provide the settings where kids learn from playing - this was what I preferred especially for my son who's under 3. I was concerned about him not able to speak if he's not being treated well but I am laughing at it now. He doesn't even look back and wants to stay at Ros's when he drop him off every morning.

Ros cares not only about your child but the whole family. She's been great to us and we felt like we are now part of her family.

I really appreciate Ros, Lily and Jasmine for everything they've done for our family.

Oh Sunny! Jun remains a special part of our lives & Luke I told you, there’s no escape! You’re family now 😆 We miss you all!

Wonderfully warm & friendly, a home away from home

My son started with Ros when he was 10 months old as I had to go back to work. He settled in straight away and after a few days I could see he was incredibly happy there and thoroughly enjoyed his days. Ros is a wonderful childminder, always keeps me updated throughout the day which is especially nice when at work. They do lots of fun activities, different play groups and my son comes home very much ready for bed!

I can't recommend Ros highly enough, I saw at least 10 different childminders and Ros was the only one I felt my son would be safe and happy with. She has a wonderful home where children can play and learn, my sons development has definitely improved since he started with Ros.

If your children are anything like mine, they won't want to come home at the end of the day because they have such a good time! You will definitely get peace of mind if you have Ros mind your children. A* from us :)

Warmhearted setting perfect for nursery children

My son is at Hillcross nursery which he loves but was not happy with the wrap-around provider. I found Ros through a parent at the school who said she had been a nursery teacher there and had got on very well with her son. The current nursery teachers also spoke very highly of her as a past colleague. My son started wrap-around care with Ros two days a week and quickly felt at home and exhibited much better behaviour at home as well, saying that he preferred Ros to the previous provider. Ros is very warmhearted and fun, coming up with a lot of different activities from long park walks exploring the local wildlife to a whole range of indoor activities from writing mini books to making their own play dough. I think particularly because he is at the nursery she used to work at and she knows that setting very well she is very good at matching the nursery's activities and the stage he is at. My son is very happy there and loves Ros, he has already expressed disappointment at leaving her once he goes to full-time school so there may have to be a very drawn-out leaving process! Ros does express clear but fair boundaries for my son and he seems to respond well to these too. We are very happy with this setting and with Ros and would recommend her to any other parents seeking a childminder. Only 4 stars for food as we send lunch ourselves but Seth loves breakfast with her and enjoys snacktimes! A great setting.
