My son has been with Lesley since he was around 8 months old. He is now 3.5 and we are moving away, but we will never forget Lesley. She is so warm and friendly, and we instantly felt at ease. She loves her children and looks after them so well - it feels more like a family home. My son has learnt so much from being with her. Lesley takes the children to do lots of different activities and they always have lots of adventures. She keeps in touch with us through the day with lots of pictures and updates. On the rare occasion my son was a bit upset going in (only about 3 times ever) she gave him lots of extra cuddles and within minutes he was fine - and she sent pictures to prove it! Lesley was also able to be flexible once he started a bit of preschool. She is always happy to work with us for any changes or if we're running late. We will always be grateful to Lesley for giving our son the best start in life. I would give her six stars if I could!

Oh thank you so much, your son was a gorgeous little boy to look after and such a character in every way, he is a treasure and will not be forgotten, hope to see you all again soon, he is already being missed . Sending hugs snd kisses 🥰🥰🥰

As a parent finding the right person to entrust with the care of your child 5 days/ week is not an easy task. But we have been incredibly lucky to have found such a person in Lesley. Her caring, loving and affectionate nature has created a safe and nurturing environment for our daughter for the past 3 years. Her love for children is evident in every interaction. Everyone who has ever met Lesley knows how much she looks after the children and doesn't spend her time chating away with other childminders while children are neglected ( I've seen so much of this around West Wickham and it makes furious). Without her support and the piece of mind that my daughter is in safe hands I would have not been able to return to work full time and I would have not been where I am today.
A heartfelt thanks to Lesley for her unwavering dedication and affection. I highly recommend her services to any parent in need of reliable and loving childcare!

Thank you so much put a tear in my eye, Freya will be deeply missed from a very shy sensitive toddler to now a growing confident little girl🥰🥰. Look forward to having her when required school holidays, she is kind helpful and caring to the younger children and full of fun and laughter, adorable little girl I was so lucky to look after 🥰🥰🥰

I am so happy my 1 year old is with Lesley. I trust completely that she is providing a safe, warm, fun and loving environment, providing my little one with the positive experiences and care that will shape her for the rest of her life. Your child will get lots of hugs and care with Lesley and it makes my life easier knowing there's nothing I have to worry about.

More practically, Lesley is flexible, happy to accommodate dietary requirements, and has great communication - sharing updates and photos on the fun things they get up to.

Lesley looked after both my children for 6 years, she is incredibly caring and goes above and beyond to make sure all the children are happy. My children have always been happy to go to Lesley’s and we will miss her now they are moving on to secondary school.

I am really lucky that Lesley is my son chilminder. He is really happy with her and feel safe which is the most important for me.
From first day he like to be take care by her and he likes very much her friendly dog and atmosphere in home.
She always listen to my son and knows what he likes.
My daughter can wait to go to her and I hope she will go in September.
I am really happy with Lesley she is very nice person and children loves her.

Our little one (2 years old) has been with Lesley for almost a year now and he absolutely loves it. Settling in was easy and he'd often run in and not look back! Lesley has such a wonderful relationship with our child, she always makes him laugh and smile! She keeps us updated with photos throughout the day which I love! Knowing my little one is getting a good run about during the day is great and there are always different toys and activities being offered. Lesley offers our child a home away from home and we couldn't be happier. Would definitely recommend!

Lesley has been looking after my 3 year old since she was 6months old and now also has my youngest who is 9 months and they love her and Bella the dog. When I ask my 3 year old who’s house do you like going round, Lesley’s is the first one mentioned. My husband and I get regular updates throughout the day which we love. She is wonderful, caring and kind and an amazing childminder, she is like part of the family.

Lesley is our daughter’s childminder and is brilliant. She is warm, friendly and caring. Lesley is great at entertaining children and always makes sure they have fun and fresh air. She was recommended to me by a friend who had noticed how great she is at interacting with children when out and about locally and we totally agree.

Lesley is a great and attentive childminder and a lovely person. She offers a warm and welcoming home away from home environment and our son was with her for a year before we moved away from the area. She takes such good care of the children in her care and send us regular updates and pictures of what they are up to. She makes sure they get out and about even in bad weather so they get plenty of fresh air.

She is great to communicate with and is always flexible and kind. We are so happy to have found such a great start for our son as he moved away from full time care at home when we were both back at work. Highly recommend her if you are looking for childcare.

Our son (20 months old) has been with Lesley for a few months now and we couldn't be happier with our choice in childminder. More importantly, he loves it there and she is terrific with him; her caring nature really shines through. He is excited to go there and doesn't always want to leave! We completely trust her and love that she takes him out and about and into nature (and previously toddler groups). She is a flexible and lovely person and we are so pleased that our son has a home away from home. She cooks healthy meals and provides healthy snacks. He also loves the dog, sometimes all he talks about!
