Maria (not forgetting Louis and her lovely family!) cared for our daughter from 10 months through to 3 years, and in that time, she and her family provided a warm, supportive, and loving environment. They treat each child as a unique individual and made them feel truly part of the family.
She helped to guide our daughter through key milestones, physical, emotional, and mental, with care and attentiveness. (Even when behaviour went through tricky stages!)
Maria and Louis take the children out most days (as weather allowed), so there was a lot more experiences and opportunities than simply homebased care.
Her impact on our daughter's early years can't be understated, and though we had to move on due to a job change, we’ll always be grateful for the role she played in shaping those formative years. I hope that our daughter left as much of an imprint on her, as she did for us.
