My son attended A Home to Grow full time from Dec 2011 up to June 2013, and we could not have been happier with his care. I was working long hours and it was such a weight off my mind to know that he really felt he had a home from home at their house.
Lydia and Dale are incredibly gifted with children, they follow the Early Years curriculum in a really creative way. Even at less than 2 my son was desperate to tell me about all the things they'd taught him, and got so much enjoyment out of his 'learning time'. They are really imaginitive and never seem to run out of fresh ideas. Despite the very long days and hard work that they put it, they never seemed to get the slightest bit impatient. All the children adore them and behave well as a result.
Lydia's own daughters are also a great testament to how well their approach works; they are kind, impeccably mannered, helpful girls who are great role models for the younger ones.
We have sadly moved out of the area now but if I could have taken them with us I would have done! I don't think they charge enough for a service which is twice as good as I've had at the two highly rated private nurseries that I've used both before and after. I would recommend them to anybody.
