Amazing!

My little girl started with Karen in June 2021 when she was 13 months old. After looking for the right person for a while, I was starting to lose hope until I found Karen. After a few meetings in the park and for walks, I knew Karen was the right person.
 
Karen takes the children out on regular trips to national trust parks, farms, the zoo and I’m updated at regular points during the day with photos and messages about how she is doing. Activities Karen prepares for the children in her care are educational and ensure the children are continuously learning and developing in their skills.
 
Karen sends regular newsletters and updates with what activities the children will participate in during the upcoming term, information about any local events and links to activities we can do in our home setting to enhance early learning. Every six months, I am sent a curriculum assessment checkpoint based on A’s skills at that time. These are extremely useful in understanding where she sits developmentally and to ensure she is hitting all her milestones, which I would be completely unaware of otherwise.

A was with Karen for over 2 years, we were all very sad to leave Karen’s setting when she started pre-school, but so happy baby 2 will be joining Karen’s setting in the next couple of months. The care Karen shows the children is clear to see, A runs into her setting every time she attends! I’d recommend Karen wholeheartedly.
