Our daughter has blossomed at this setting.

From the onset of engaging with Danielle we were put at ease and no question was too much for her to answer, especially as leaving your young child with someone else for the first time can be a daunting and worrying experience for any parent.
The induction process was informative and flexible to both ours and Danielle’s needs in terms of how long and when our 1 year old daughter could come and try out her new setting.
Danielle is very flexible, if we have needed to change a day or a time this has always been accommodated.
The environment at Danielle's is always clean and tidy and upon arrival there are always toys/learning equipment set up ready to use, giving a well organised and welcoming feeling. There are a variety of resources available to explore which are age and stage appropriate.
Our daughter also comes home with fabulous home learning activities. We have lovely reading books, the anytime bear and story sacks.
Her approach to caring for our daughter complements our parenting well and she respects our personal philosophies.
There is no doubt in the time spent at Danielle's that our daughter has built confidence and self-awareness whilst also developing in terms of personal, social and emotional skills and has formed positive relationships with the other children there.
Our daughter loves going to Danielle's each day and normally runs into the house with a massive smile and hugs for everyone which to us says everything about the environment that Danielle creates.
We feel fortunate that there was a place for our daughter at Danielle's and now, as our daughter approaches transition into school we cannot highlight enough the positive influence Danielle has had on both our daughter and ourselves as parents and we are convinced that our daughter owes much of her development and happiness to Danielle's presence and her lovely setting.
