My son has been going to Cheryl since 2017. We are so pleased we found her through childcare.co.uk. Having just moved to the area and not knowing any local childcare providers we didn't know where to start. My son was 16 months old, had never been left with anyone else before and was quite clingy. Cheryl instantly made us feel we had made the right choice. She has such a caring manner it is clear she wants the best for every child in her care. We felt that her setting was like home from home. She prepares lovely creative activities for the children, she has a wonderful garden where our son is in his element and she is often taking them on great trips out. He loves going to Cheryl and wants to go there even if we are just driving by!
She provide us with lots of feedback on his progress, not just formally, but also through a learning journal, the pictures she sends & feedback day to day and even a monthly newsletter.
Cheryl goes out of her way to support us as a family too. Being new to the area, Cheryl gave us lots of ideas of activities & places to go as a family. We can rely on her 100% and she always does her best to help us out on unscheduled days. Our son (and us) see her as part of the family and are so grateful for her role in bringing up our special boy.
