Its cold. Well the Wind makes it really cold. Today Buttercup Lane Childminders have been to the park again. Picking some more conkers and acorns.
We then went for a run through the leaves on the ground.

Two new fantastic customers reviews for us here – Thank you so much for your kind words. We already know that we have the most rewarding job in the world and reading your kind letters and words just make us feel ultra special. Karl and Lia xx

Luca today is your first Birthday
A very special one
A nice kind of day
For treats and lots of fun.
From the time you get up
Till you go Night night
Hope your first Birthday
Is a special delight.
From all your friends at Buttercup Lane Childminders in East Ardsley

Little Archie was 2 Years old this week and how time has flown.

Sorry the birthday message is a little late – but here is special poem just for Archie . ( found this on the internet so I cant take the credit )

Off comes the lid of the special tin
The special tin with biscuits in
Biscuit time with a hot cup of tea
Just the one will do me.

There’s my favourite the Custard Cream
I bet it tastes just like a dream
My tummy feels in the hunger zone
That Ginger Nut looks so alone.

Look at that – Archies has nabbed the Shortbread
I’m so disappointed I’m seeing red
Talking of red there’s a Jammy Dodger face
It looks so inviting I’ll give it a taste.

Dunkable biscuits are being passed around
It’s like a lucky dip at the lost and found
You’ve got to know how long to dunk
Just a second too long and your biscuits sunk.

Archie has eaten at least four
He’s just picked up a Hob Nob that fell on the floor
I think I saw him but I’m not too sure
Anyway if it’s o.k. for him, I’ll try one more.

Look at the pretty pattern on the plate
I’ll just grab a Garibaldi before it’s too late
The Malted Milk looks very nice
Just for today my diet I’ll sacrifice.

That Jaffa cake needs clearing up
My left hand feels empty and I’m on my second cup
I’m glad Luca ate the last Fig Roll
He’s off to the loo at a very fast stroll.

I’ve watched ‘Scott and Bailey’ it must be fate
I’m now trying to guess who’s nearly emptied the plate
Funny how the crumbs always leave a trail
The mess on the Kids’ chins are the telling tale.

Biscuits I must confess are the food that we love
A gift for my taste buds from Heaven above
Well I might as well finish with the last Butter Crunch
They’re ever so thin and won’t spoil my lunch.

We have had a fantastic April and here at Buttercup Lane Childminders we welcome “Baby Raine” to our extended child care family.

We are getting quite a lot of interest for September so please if your thinking about using a childminder in East Ardsley make that call sooner rather than later as contracts and numbers are filling up fast. Even if we at Buttercup Lane Childminders cant accommodate you we have links in the community that will be able to help. So please make that call today.

We are also broadening our pick up and drop off services this september to include BlackGates Primary school… contracts permitting so watch this space for further details.

Spring looks as though it has finally arrived and we have been able to visit lots of places of interest already. Nostell Priory, Hemsworth Water Park, Holmfirth, Halifax, Leeds Observation Wheel (OWL) as well as the East Coast of Yorkshire.

We have also now started to offer 24 hour / 7 days a week childcare. Please enquire early.

Child minders in East Ardsley Buttercup Lane have signed up another customer – we welcome Kai to our family. Three boys in the space of one week and another to come. Finally lots of boys to mix with all the girls.

Even with the building world that is going on at the minute this is still a fantastic day out for everyone. Raine had a lovely day looking for all the butterflies and MeerKats. Follow the link to see the Leeds City Council Attraction – Its well worth the visit and the entrance fee. Today was very busy though as its school holidays.

Its Sophie’s Birthday on the 22nd so everyone is wishing her a very happy birthday and we hope she gets everything she wishes for, although I don’t think One Direction have ever heard of East Ardsley so we dont think they are coming to help blow out all her birthday candles.
