Christine looked after my daughter Emma for a month between my other childcare arrangements and then for 5 months when I returned to work from maternity leave. Emma always looked forward to go to her, making life a lot easy for me. Emma loved the activities/parties (Halloween etc) arranged by Christine and the frequent park visits. My husband works long hours in London and I have to juggle between my family with two young children and a full-time work. Christine was very flexible with the hours and did her best to accommodate our needs, including giving Emma warm home-cooked tea (this was much appreciated as Emma has multiple allergies). Emma learned to play nicely with the other children at Christine's setting and was always happy when I picked her up.
