Tina has cared for my Daughter since she was 8 months old, after I was left in a situation where I had no choice but to return to work, upon being left as a single parent. At this time, I was very upset at the prospect of leaving my little girl as a baby and very apprehensive about putting her into childcare. After reading what felt like a million profiles, I found Tina on this site and went to visit her and the facilities. Straight away I felt comfortable and Tina's honest, to the point, whilst also caring attitude was a perfect match for what I needed. I wanted someone who would enforce the rules I would want to make for my child and give the love that I would too. I started care in August 2012 and my daughter is now at Nursery School and thanks to Tina, Sara and Katie ... She is polite, friendly and very sociable, confident and keen to learn. She absolutely loves it when she is there and I am never worried about leaving her. They have been flexible way beyond their requirements and have been invaluable to me in my situation as my dad has a terminal illness too, which means I often need care at quite short notice to accommodate his hospital appointments and it is never a problem. I Never thought I would entrust anyone to care for my 'world' but Tina, Sara and Katie I can honesty say, I would trust implicitly with my Daughter. I can't fault them, brilliant childcare and lovely ladies to boot. Abbee has learned so much with them way beyond what I ever expected her to learn pre-school years, their activities, learning, projects and mealtime are all equally Fabulous.... And to make this even better we get the photo albums and progress reports each term to see everything which is lovely too, seeing my little girl in action for the moments I would otherwise miss. All occasions are catered for appropriately, children's birthdays, easter, Halloween, Christmas, there is always a fun day for the children to look forward to and throughout the year she comes home with many things she has made... I especially love the Mother's Day cards! In the summer months it is all about the garden.... A brilliant and safe area that they all love.... And the food, the menu certainly beats my menu for lunches, I've even contemplated booking myself a place just for the food! I'm sure my daughter now prefers them to me .... She certainly listens to them more and when it comes to discipline ... They have definitely helped me with a few issues there. My little girl will always be a part of their 'family' which is exactly how we have been made to feel and in turn, they will always be my only childcare facility and more importantly friends to me and my daughter for life. I am quite sure my daughter will still be visiting in High School! I can't thank them or recommend highly enough! Wonderful. Vicky & Abbee x
