More than the best!

My little boy joined starter sessions late 2019 aged 10 months and has thrived and developed leaps and bounds ever since.
Upon first visit all the children within the setting appeared happy and content they all were confident in sharing what they was going and showed they felt safe
and happy with both Shay and Petina. This is part of what sold us to the setting. Shay and Petina have the same child lead / forest schools approach we have at home. Both Petina and Shay have a lovely bond with my son and I know all his needs are more than met. They have supported his learning and responded to his development ques the efforts they have put into his general learning, speech and language have enabled him to talk clearly with confidence, he's able to confidently count to ten and sometimes past 10 and recognise shapes at aged 2. He's got a wonderful understanding of the world around him and shows an interest in it. Activities are always engaging and children centred with fun and learning in mind.
The trips out are always enjoyed by the children and the bond/ friendship all the children have for one another is lovely to see at pick ups and drop offs.
Rugrats is a lovely homely personal approach to childcare and have supported and help to shape my son into a polite and caring little boy.
Not to mention Shay and Petina are full of knowledgeable information on child development to help support the children at home with sleep, potty training and behaviours. They're also supportive to the parents and are always there as fantastic emotional support. Two of the kindest ladies I've ever met.
