------------------------------------------------------------
Both of my children attended Butterflies Childminding and I am so grateful that I found them. what they do with the children goes above and beyond my expectations. both of the children have been so happy in their care and often don't want to go home. They have both finished so confidently and been ready for school and I am so pleased with their child care and development along the way. I would highly recommend Butterflies to anyone looking for outstanding childcare. - Anon
I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and love our child has received from Ellie and her team over the past three to four years. From day one, it was evident that Ellie was more than just a childminder; she is an educator and offers a wealth of knowledge having been doing this for many years. I feel her team became an integral part of our son's well-being and development.
Their professionalism, patience, and genuine affection for children create a nurturing environment where our son has thrived. Every day, he came home with stories of fun activities, learning adventures, and new friendships. Ellie and her team not only ensured his safety but also his emotional well-being, providing a warm and loving atmosphere that felt like a second home for our son.
Their dedication to each child's individual needs, coupled with open communication with us as parents, gave us peace of mind knowing our son was in the best hands possible. We've watched our son grow and develop under her guidance, and we're forever grateful for the positive impact they've had on his life.
In summary, Ellie and her team are not just another childcare provider; they are a true gem in the realm of early childhood education. We wholeheartedly recommend Ellie to any parent seeking exceptional care for their child and should we have another child we would be seeking a placement with her.
As an organisation, we are passionate about contributing to the environment; we have completed several programmes demonstrating our commitment to addressing climate change.
We reduce our carbon footprint by making simple swaps, such as using water wipes instead of baby wipes and opting for recycled toilet rolls and tissues rather than their bleached counterparts.
The setting is powered by solar panels, allowing us to operate free from electricity throughout the day. Our carbon footprint is now reduced to 9 tonnes, significantly lower than the average small business in the UK, which produces around 15 tonnes.
Setting manager Elaina has completed a qualification in Business Environmental Sustainability, and together with her team, they look at new and innovative ways to reduce their carbon footfall.
The setting promotes recycling, reusing and repurposing and is proud to share the importance of their impact within the community with children.
