Our daughter has been with Emma since she was just 10 months old (she is now nearly 3). Whilst being a home-from-home, the environment that Emma creates is also one of fun, learning, play and creativity. The house is immaculate, safe, secure and spacious, with a big garden for plenty of outdoor play when the weather permits.

Emma encourages the children in her care to be confident and social – going out every day, to different parks, playgroups, shops and libraries. Emma’s family is also very supportive and our daughter adores her children, who clearly enjoy spending time with the kids.

Emma is incredibly thoughtful and organised and always has time to discuss the development of your child. Being first-time parents, we have found Emma to be the font of all knowledge about how to get through various hurdles, from diet to naps, ailments and potty-training (the list goes on) – giving us far more confidence as parents.
