Parents must carry out their own checks and references on childcare providers to ensure that they are completely happy before enaging in the use of their services.
Prudence is just one of a kind. You really don’t meet many people so dedicated to their job. My daughter has absolutely loved it there from the age of five months, all the way until she turned two. Prudence has this unique ability to treat children with so much kindness and respect and they respond to her beautifully.
Every day she organises different activities and makes an effort to give the kids opportunity to spend As much time outside as she can.
I highly recommend.

awww, thank you so much Marta ♥️
Prudence at Little Eden has been a godsend for our family. From her endless energy to her thoughtful outings, she's made every day an adventure for our 2-year-old son.
Her care goes above and beyond—we'll never forget the time she delivered our son home during the chaos of welcoming our second baby.
Little Eden is a paradise for kids, with a spotless setting and a garden our son adores exploring.
Prudence keeps us in the loop with daily updates and adorable photos, giving us peace of mind while we're apart.
But what truly sets Prudence apart is her dedication to our son's growth. Through practical skills and child-led play, she's helped shape him into a confident little explorer.
We can't recommend Prudence and Little Eden enough—they've become like family to us.

My daughter absolutely loves it here, her face lights up in the morning when she arrives. Prudence is always thinking up imaginative activities to do with the children and taking them to fun places. Really recommend!
