Our baby was only 8 months old when he began with Suzie. Initially we were quite apprehensive about him beginning in a setting as he was very dependant on us at home. However the slot was available and we really wanted him to be with a childminder for a range of reasons.

Our son instantly settled with Suzie and there was never any tears from day one. We’d be lucky for a wave goodbye! Suzie has created such a warm and loving home setting that it is clear the children thoroughly love their time there. There a real love between both Suzie and the children as well as amongst the children.

Suzie was amazing at taking them on so many adventures and mixing with a host of different children from different settings. They would often visit different parks, Rutland Water, Burghley and so on. This has enormously helped with our son to be confident in a range of settings. Suzie has also been very dependable over the past 2 years and has been a real constant in our lives.

He has thoroughly enjoyed his time with Suzie and the only reason is to move to begin a pre school alongside his older sister. I will however not miss pick ups when it was a real battle to try and get him to leave to come home!! He just loved being there amongst his peers and friends too much.

Thank you again Suzie.
