Our second daughter has just finished a wonderful year with Angie and has now moved on to pre-school, joining her big sister, who was also lucky enough to be cared for by Angie when she was younger.

This time around, there was never any question about who we wanted to look after our daughter. We knew from experience just how caring, trustworthy and dedicated Angie is, and we wouldn't have considered anyone else.

Our daughter absolutely thrived in Angie's care and genuinely loved every day she spent with her. Angie creates such a warm, nurturing environment and has been an incredible support to us as a family, especially through the ups and downs of potty training, which she handled with endless patience and encouragement.

What has always stood out is how much Angie truly cares about the children she looks after. From exciting outings and new experiences like Safari Stu, trips to the garden centre and picnics in the park, to the thoughtful activities she plans each day, she makes learning fun and memorable. She is also deeply invested in the children's development and has kept us regularly updated on our daughter's progress throughout her time with her.

We have loved receiving the beautiful handmade gifts Angie creates with the children throughout the year. Most of all, I will treasure the photo books she puts together, filled with special memories from our daughter's time in her care.

We are so grateful for everything Angie has done for both of our girls over the years. I genuinely cannot recommend her highly enough.
