Our daughter has been with Maisie for the last 6 months and we truly could not have hoped for a more nurturing, thoughtful start for her.

Our daughter settled with Maisie instantly, which says so much about the warm and welcoming environment she creates. Her setting is beautifully planned out with meaningful activities every day, and she clearly puts a huge amount of thought into the resources, play opportunities and overall atmosphere for the children. The children also go out daily on lovely outings to places such as Little Farmers and Ocean Adventurers, which our daughter has absolutely loved.

Maisie communicates so well throughout the day and sends daily photographs and updates, which has always been so reassuring and special to receive. She provides wonderful healthy, varied meals and our daughter has eaten so many lovely foods while with her.

What has stood out most to us is how well Maisie reads each child individually. She always seems to know when our daughter needs extra cuddles and reassurance, or when to encourage her independence and creativity instead. Our daughter has come on leaps and bounds developmentally during her time there.

Maisie has also been an incredibly kind and supportive person to us as a family during some difficult periods, and we will always be grateful for the care, warmth and thoughtfulness she showed us all.

We are so sad to be leaving and will miss her hugely. I would recommend her wholeheartedly to any family looking for a nurturing, intentional and child-centred environment for their little one.
