Christine looked after my 2 girls for almost 6 years while we lived in Leeds. Christine and her family were very warm and our initial anxiety of leaving our tiny first born with a ‘stranger’ disappeared within the first week. She is an absolute gem of a person who truly loves the children she nurtures in her home. Christine not only provides amazing toys and nutritious meals, she makes sure the children are out of the house for playgroups, walks outdoors and fun activities in her huge back garden. Discipline, manners, empathy and patience is something my girls picked up from being in Christine’s home in their crucial early years. As new parents, we learnt a lot from Christine and I credit her early positive parenting skills for the wonderful young ladies my girls have become.
