More than we could've wanted for our children.

Reviewed

Vitalija previously looked after my eldest son, and has since looked after my youngest for the past 3 years. There is no-one else we would have chosen for our second son as we were so grateful for everything she offered to our first.

Vitalija is full of energy and enthusiasm and it is always obvious just how much she cares about the children she is looking after. She takes them in like they are her own family and is as excited about their achievements and celebrations as the parents. The group of children she cares for become like a little family and watching their bond grow is wonderful. Every day Vitalija creates activities and tasks for the children to challenge them, whilst having fun both in and out of the home. They play outside in all weather's, and the garden at her home is great - with play equipment, water play, mud kitchen, plants etc. She also cooks a huge variety of fresh meals which have taken my son out of his comfort zone, but have become some of his favourites. Saying this, she is always accommodating through the occasional fussy stage!
Overall, the care she offers is outstanding, and I have never once doubted that my son is having the best day in her care. The videos and photos we receive throughout the day fully support this and are a great way to treasure memories too.

We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have our children under Vitalijas care, and accepted into her home like family, for the last 6 years. She is now a friend who's advice and knowledge we fully welcome and respect. She will always hold a special place in our family's heart and we will be so sad to see our son's time with her end - any families that choose Vitalija in the future are incredibly lucky!
