We first met Kirsty when looking to move out eldest daughter (then 11 months) into a smaller childcare placement as she was really struggling to settle in nursery. We noticed an immediate change in her when she started at Kirsty's 3 days a week, later 4 days. She developed so much more quickly there and became much more confident and we could see how much happier she was to be in a smaller group setting with a practitioner who really knew and understood her. E stayed with Kirsty until she was 3 and a half. We then enrolled my youngest daughter. We will be very sad to leave Kirsty when she starts preschool as she's been such a huge part of our lives for years.

We cannot recommend Kirsten enough. We loved that she took our children out to groups through the week, rather than them being stuck inside all day, and they got to experience new things and meet other children too. Kirsten was always happy to help advise us on anything from sleep to behavioural stuff and we found she was brilliant at getting the girls into a routine quickly which they thrived in.

We'll be so sad to say goodbye to this chapter, but just know your child will be in amazing hands.
