Our shy little guy comes out of his shell here

Reviewed

Fiona came highly recommended to us by a friend. Our baby was 10 months when we first left him with Fiona's. We're very much attachment parenting and I was so worried about how he would nap or go without breastfeeding. Obviously Fiona has magical powers as he sleeps there by himself, the thought of which he would never entertain at home, haha! He's a pretty shy guy but he absolutely adores Fiona, her husband and daughters and after a few minutes of settling will tell them all about himself. He hasn't been for 2 weeks now due to holidays and every day he talked about them all. He always has a great time there and sometimes I feel bad for him not going more often because he really thrives there whereas at home it's just his boring old parents, haha!!! Fiona supported us using cloth nappies - in fact, she did them up better than myself! We're now potty training and there was never any pressure or questioning of what we're doing how, she just ran with it. I have no idea where she takes the energy from but it seems boundless. We will miss her and her family hugely and tears will be shed! If you think your child will benefit from a small family environment, you won't find any better! Wish we could take them all with us to Canada!
