I honestly cannot recommend Trina highly enough. As a mum, I was incredibly nervous about putting George into childcare for the first time. My intention was for Trina to be a stepping stone towards nursery, helping George get used to being around other children and spending time away from me. Little did I know just how much she would come to mean to both of us.

From the moment I met Trina, I knew she was the right person. Her kindness, gentle and reassuring nature, and the immediate love and warmth she showed George put me at ease straight away, even when he was feeling nervous himself.

Throughout his time with her, I was constantly kept updated with lovely photos and messages, and I always knew he was happy, settled and cared for. Trina made me feel so comfortable that I genuinely reached a point where I would sometimes forget George was even at childcare!

Towards the end, collecting him became a challenge in itself, as he would quite literally shut the door in my face and run off because he didn’t want to leave! I think that says absolutely everything about how happy he was there.

Trina is clearly so passionate about what she does, and the love, patience and dedication she puts into caring for the children is second to none. I will always be grateful for the reassurance she gave me as a first-time mum and, most importantly, for the wonderful care she gave George. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better.
