I’m extremely happy with the care that Helen has provided for my daughter Emmy (21 months) and I feel so lucky to have found her. After meeting with several other childminders, I knew as soon as I met Helen that she was the right one. She is bubbly and outgoing, and clearly loves her work, providing a very professional service.

I was naturally anxious about parting with Emmy but when I dropped her off for the first full day I felt very relaxed and completely at ease that Helen was providing the best care for my daughter and since then I’ve had no concerns whatsoever. Emmy is a very happy little girl, and comfortable in Helen’s environment. She has progressed very quickly whilst being with Helen.

Helen has a dedicated playroom with an amazing array of toys to keep the children engaged. They regularly attend playgroups so that they can interact with other children, and there are always a variety of activities on offer. Helen provides me with a detailed diary everyday which has been especially important to me. It means I know exactly what Emmy has been up to in my absence – this has also helped the transition with leaving her almost fulltime. Helen makes notes of any observations meaning I’m always fully informed. I often receive photos, which is lovely – Helen’s attention to detail is second to none.

Whenever I arrive to collect Emmy she always has a smile on her face and has never been desperate to leave, I think this demonstrates how secure she is with Helen. I hope Emmy can continue with Helen for a long time to come as no childminder could now live up to my expectations set by Helen - she really does go the extra mile.

I would absolutely recommend Helen as a great and trustworthy childminder; any little one would be lucky to have her!

Alice has been at Helen’s Little Angels for over 16 months now. The level of care and professionalism is second to none. Helen is approachable, caring and lots of fun. Her attention to detail on a professional level is also unrivaled. Alice settled in immediately and I have been filled with confidence in what Helen does with the children and how they are treated. I am very pleased with the level of consistent care shown by Helen. Helen provides daily reports for each child, detailing activities undertaken, meal time information, even down to nappy changes! Alice is extremely happy and loves her time at Helen’s Little Angels. Helen is undoubtedly the best Childminder in the area!

Our daughter Madison has been going to Helen's Little Angels since Sept 2010.

Helen is the best childcare provider that we have ever come across, she is very caring and considerate and the children are at the heart of everything she does. Madison has always enjoyed going to Helen's and always looks forward to going there, so much so that when I come to collect her she complains!

We feel that Helen has excellent knowledge on how to get the best out of all the children in her care, and provides a very entertaining and stimulating environment for them all.

As a Working Mum, I had always struggled to find reliable childcare which had impacted on my work, but since Madison has been coming to Helen's, I've been under a lot less pressure at work as in Helen we have a Fantastic yet reliable Chilminder who always goes out of her way to help not only the Children but also their parents.

Helen genuinely cares very much about all the children in her care, and strives to achieve the very best for them, and always looks to build on her knowledge and experience by undergoing various Childminding courses and currently an Early Years Diploma.

We would be more than happy to recommend Helen to anyone who is looking for childcare, as she is very reliable, flexible and will always help out if she can.
