Happy Parent and Child

My daughter has been attending Lenas little comfort since she was 14 months and i am very pleased with how she has flourished since being there. Lena has a warming energy and positive aura, creating a welcoming feeling which has helped with settling Cici in. This made my decision to send cici soo much easier! My daughter instantly settled in and felt comfortable, relaxed and did not cry - which is always reassuring.
Lena's approach with the kids is very hands on, she takes them park, playgroup, library and other little outings which has helped Cici's development. She doesn't shy to the activities Lena plans, I believe this is because Lena has always taught cici not to be afraid to try anything, which I am very grateful for. Lena keeps you updated and informed with the progression of your child and gives advice to continue practices at home to help develop with consistency.

Being a mum of 2, working full time it can get tricky sometimes finding the balance between work, home life, school work aswell as the preschool curriculum but this is made easier with Lena. She follows the preschool curriculum but adds her own twist to help Cici in a unique way to develop and achieve goals. The growth of my daughter has been amazing to watch over the last year, her confident and approach to learning new things has really excelled.

Having sent my other child to a private nursery, I can really see the benefits in development from having a excellent childminder having a smaller ratio giving more attention and methods based on the development. This has given Cici a really good start to her early years of development. Some of the things my daughter learned early on were to hold a pencil correctly, recognise letters and call them out whilst we're reading her a book. She is able to communicate very well, good at relationship building as well as being independent. I could go on but those are some of the things that have amazed me.

I would honestly recommend Lenas little comfort to everyone as Lena has met all my expectations and more! She has built a very family friendly environment. Her premises is always kept safe clean and welcoming, the quality of Lenas little comfort is exceptional.
It's always hard to find a childminder/nursery you can trust with your little one but I can reassure you, if you choose Lena's little comfort you wouldn't be disappointed.

Thank you 'Lena's little comfort" for all you have done!
