Reviews
Lucy Bennett
“Since we've only been with Alma a short time, her impact is amazing! Our son loves her creative weekly themes and is obsessed with the fish tank. We’ve seen a huge boost in his independent play and speech—he’s using so many more words! The photo updates and app notes totally put our minds at ease. She is a wonderful, trustworthy professional who truly cares about a child’s individual growth.”
Vicky Scott
“Our two kids adore going to Alma’s… Our big boy runs happily in and the baby (who had never been left with anybody else) reaches out for Alma. Alma follows a gentle parenting approach and is responsive to our children’s needs. She also prepares lovely themed set-ups and activities to engage them. It is clear that Alma loves children and she provides a happy, safe home from home. Thank you.”
Lauren Tarzi
“I am so happy we found this childminder as our child was struggling with behaviour and couldn’t express himself. Alma was super friendly, learning sign language, and quickly made a plan with 1:1 flashcards, reading, and singing. He went from almost mute to holding conversations in six months. Her home is a home away from home, full of toys, outdoor fun, walks, and activities.”
Jim McCormack
“Parker has been with Alma since early 2025 and we’ve seen huge improvements in his development, from behaviour to speech. Alma encourages and guides him every step. Her environment is full of comfort, play, and laughter. Parker comes home with stories and always asks if he’ll see Auntie Alma tomorrow—nowhere feels more fitting for him than with Jason and Alma.”
