We started using Ijeoma in August during the summer holidays, and we have been happy with the care she provided for our daughter.
From the beginning, our daughter settled in so well and genuinely enjoyed her time there. She would look forward to going and, on quite a few occasions, would even cry when we came to pick her up because she didn’t want to leave. That really reassured us that she was happy, comfortable and enjoying herself in her care.
Ijeoma was warm, caring and attentive towards her, and we really appreciated the kindness and care she showed her. We felt comfortable leaving our daughter in her care and would highly recommend her to other parents
