Chelsie is simply fantastic. Our little girl has been going to Chelsie’s for nearly a year now and she has thrived since the moment she stepped through The Little Orange House door. Chelsie made returning to work for me so much easier than I had anticipated as I have never had to worry about my daughter whilst she is in Chelsie’s extremely capable hands. They always seem to be getting up to a wide range of engaging activities and we love the Montessori, child led, approach Chelsie uses. Our little girl has also made great friends with the other children she mixes with at Chelsie’s. For a child who is not even 2 yet, still asking for her little friends and Chelsie after 2 months of COVID19 lockdown (in place at the time of writing) is testament to the strong bonds she has formed there. Thank you Chelsie.

Our little boy has been with Chelsie for nearly 2 years now and we couldn’t be happier with the care he is receiving. She’s always got a fun activity planned for all the kids or a fun day out, I don’t know how she does it with being so organised but I can feel rest assured when at work that he is having the best time. She’s incredibly professional and knowledgeable and has had a huge impact on how we parent at home too, before Chelsie we had no idea about Montessori and it’s now an approach we’ve really embraced at home! We’ve really lucked out finding her, the childcare setting she offers is so unique to our local area too. Safe to say anyone would be lucky to have Chelsie look after their little ones!

Chelsie has looked after our first little girl whose now 4, for about 2 years now. I admit I am a nervous, first time parent and leaving R with someone I didn’t know terrified me!
I’ve always felt at ease with Chelsie, she’s more like family than a childcarer to us now and has made a potentially difficult time for us much easier. We are lucky enough to have her helping with our new addition in the summer too! I don’t know how she does it but I hope to have her in our lives for the foreseeable future!
100% recommendation from us!
