Heather is very caring and understanding with My Son Frankie and other children. Have met in her care. Heather always welcomes Frankie not her home and often takes him for walks in the woods, which he loves. Frankie is more than happy at Heather's home and loves the toy room. Frankie also does picture painting and crafts which he loves to show me.
