We have had a wonderful experience.

We were first introduced to Reena through our neighbor here in Great Park, whose child had been in her care. They couldn’t speak highly enough of her, and after meeting Reena ourselves, we immediately understood why. From the moment we walked in, her setting felt like a true home-from-home. There was an instant sense of warmth and ease, and we just knew our son would be happy there.

Since starting with Reena, we haven’t had a single moment of doubt. Our son settled in so quickly it felt less like a transition and more like he had simply found a second home.

Reena’s care goes far beyond the basics. She has been remarkably attentive and flexible with his dietary needs - he can be quite particular with food - and her patience and understanding have meant the world to us.

What’s been most beautiful to witness is the change in him. He absolutely adores his time with Reena, whether at home or out on activities. He was naturally quite shy before, but with her gentle encouragement he has truly come out of his shell. Seeing his confidence blossom has been one of the greatest gifts.

As a neurodiversity consultant with my husband working as a college lecturer, our schedules are demanding. For me personally, after years as a stay-at-home mum to my older children, returning from Dubai and rebuilding my business has been a huge transition. Knowing our son is not just looked after, but genuinely cherished by Reena, has given us complete peace of mind. It’s allowed me to focus on my work with confidence, knowing he is safe, happy, and thriving.

We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Reena. She is exceptional, and we recommend her with our whole hearts.
