Incredible learning environment

Shekel is the most incredible childminder and our daughter adored going from 8 months old. The learning and engagement level is more like a pre-school, and it was so clear how much she was learning and developing so much faster with Shekel. The one to one learning, small group activities, and whiteboard sessions, combined with the extra activities like pony rides and harrbeeps really do make the care level outstanding. Shekel and all the staff are so loving and wonderful, and sometimes when I went to do pick up my baby didn’t want to leave because she loved Shekel so much. All the updates provided were brilliant for seeing her development, and knowing how she had been all day every day was really helpful. We also loved that she celebrated every culture there, and the birthday parties for each child were mind blowing with how special they were. I couldn’t recommend The Learning Tree more, and anyone who manages to get a space for their child will be so lucky. We miss everyone at Learning Tree so much, and are eternally grateful to Shekel for giving our daughter the best care and start to her education.
