We honestly can’t thank Little Hearts enough for everything they have done for Oliver. ❤️
As a mum, trusting someone else to look after your little boy was something I found incredibly hard. Leaving Oliver in someone else’s care was a huge step for me, but from the very beginning, Little Hearts have made us feel so reassured, supported and completely at ease.
Watching how much Oliver has grown and developed since being there has been amazing. He has come on so much in such a short space of time, and honestly feels like a completely different little boy. His confidence has grown, he’s become so much more independent, and it’s lovely seeing how happy and settled he is.
Knowing that he is genuinely cared for, loved and looked after while he’s there means absolutely everything to me. I couldn’t be happier with the care he receives, and I’m so grateful to everyone at Little Hearts for helping Oliver flourish. ❤️
Thank you for giving me the reassurance every mum needs and, most importantly, for helping my little boy become the amazing little person he is today. 🥰
