Both our daughters, now 2 and 4yrs old, have been with Amy for 4days a week since they were 11months old. It is hard to summarise in a few paragraphs just how wonderful Amy is and how much of a positive impact she has had on all of our lives.

Amy provides a calm, caring, creative and loving environment for the children she cares for which has allowed our children to thrive. Amy is so skilled, qualified and experienced in early years care and has such understanding, compassion and interest in all areas of children's development.

Her homely, loving environment has been wonderful and hugely beneficial for our children. They both feel so happy, secure and known in her care. When I go to work and leave my children with Amy I can do with complete confidence as I know that they are not just being looked after but are being truly nurtured.

Amy works closely with us to alter routines, encourage positive behaviours and increase our girls confidence. We enjoy reading about the events of their day in the daily updates, not only because they have such great experiences and adventures in her home/ the park/ the woods but also because in these communications it is clear that their little personalities and idiosyncrasies are known and nourished by Amy.

Being lucky enough to have Amy in our children's lives is truly a blessing. She provides so much more than childcare. I can wholeheartedly say that I couldn't be happier and couldn't recommend her more strongly. She is one of a kind and absolute excellence.
