What parents have to say about Karen Humble

Andrea EcclesI have known Karen for 17 years and when I had my children, and returned to work, I wanted to be able to leave my children with someone who I felt comfortable with and knew I could trust. Karen has taught my children lots of educational skills, ranging from maths and English and learning through play activities. She has taken them out on day trips to white post farm, twin lakes and Alton towers. She has also taken them bowling. Karen is a very down to earth person who I know I can approach at any occasion for advice and both my children look up to her and respect her for the help she has given them. Karen is very passionate, professional, polite and friendly. I couldn’t have asked for anything more as I knew I could go to work and Know that my children where 100% safe and happy.

Kellie HartzerI have known Karen Humble for about 2 years, after she was recommended to me from a family member. I have 2 children age 4.5 and 9 who enjoy going round, with the amount of toys and other activities they get involved in. I found her to be very flexible and very reliable at a very reasonable price. Karen is always happy, friendly and willing to help. I would recommend Karen to anyone.

Lisa HallDue to change of hours at work I needed to find child care for my son for mornings and school holidays. I saw Karen’s advert which was displayed in the local nursery. My son felt very comfortable and enjoyed his first visit. Karen always kept my son busy with various activities and enjoyable outings. Karen has always been reliable and supportive when ever I needed her service. I would gladly recommend Karen’s Child minding service for a fun, enjoyable time for your Children.

Teresa GlennI met Karen about a year ago when I found a job and was looking for childcare for my daughter Louise, then 10. On first meeting I found Karen to be polite, friendly, courteous & very professional. After the initial meeting I decided to use Karen’s services as a childminder. As it was my first time leaving my daughter with anyone other than a family member I was a little apprehensive about how it would work. After the first week, both my daughter and I knew we’d made the right decision. My daughter settled in well and enjoyed many of the activities Karen had to offer. Karen’s encouragement of my daughter to do homework and additional learning activities was a great help in my daughters development, as I had struggled in the past to get her to do any. Louise was given a choice of a wide variety of activities including painting, baking, outdoor activities and day trips in the school holidays. Louise has been to twin lakes, American adventure, bowling and more, she loved them all.I found Karen to be easily approachable and she gave me some good advice relating to my daughter, which I have now implemented at home, and it’s been very useful. On the whole Karen was everything I was looking for in a childminder and would highly recommend her.

Zuzana NiklovaThis little report is not only for parents, who are deciding about what childminder to trust with their children, but also to tell Karen, how much she means to us and how much we admire and value her being part of our life… I was in desperate situation when I first contacted Karen, whose ad i found on Gumtree. From stress, panic and chaos I suddenly felt calmed and relaxed just after her first reply… When i first visited her and her family, I knew straight away, that my baby is going to be safe and happy. The welcoming smile and pleasant presentation, meeting her husband and children…made us feel like at home. Outdoors activities, plays, games, reading, drawing, practical examples, toddler groups, gardening, healthy eating, learning manners and fair play….are just few examples of what “Karen`s Children” do and get occupied with…Karen is very smart, positive, loving and caring person. She respects and accepts other people’s privileges, ways and opinions and herself has, for me, very healthy attitude to teaching, progressing and dealing with children. She is not only childminder to us…she is a friend, a person I trust and respect….
I can hardly imagine my baby’s world without Karen and her familyNB: This client has been with me since March 2008
