Corinne has been looking after my son for just under 2 years. After spending 2 months at a nursery where he was really not happy, she made him feel right at home.
Corinne has a really lovely manner with all the children in her care. She always comes across as kind, patient, and calm when interacting with them. This shows in the way the children are happy and well behaved when they are with her.
Since my son has been going to Corinne’s I’ve been reassured that I made the correct childcare choice. He’s so happy with her and really loves all the activities that are carried out during the week. I have been impressed by the variety of toys that are available and that the children don’t play with just gender stereotype toys. My son is always keen to chat about his day and what they have done. On occasion, he is so keen to get there, that he runs off into the house without looking back!
I’ve really seen my son progress since he has spent time with Corinne and the other children in her care. It is wonderful to read the diary reports, that Corinne puts together daily, and see how they are overcoming obstacles and learning new and interesting things through play.
Whenever I arrive to drop off or collect, I have seen all the children happy and safely engaged.
While I provide food for my son, Corinne can prepare food in the setting. If collection time has been at the same time as dinner time, the food has looked and smelt very tasty, and the children all sit together to eat.
All in all I would recommend Corinne, wholeheartedly, to look after anyone's child. She is able to give me the confidence that my son is in a safe and nurturing environment, while enabling him to have freedom of expression and play.
