A friend of mine shared Rita’s profile on social media at a time where we were just starting to consider the thought of childcare. After meeting I instantly trusted her and knew my son would be supported and looked after in the way that worked for us. He settled almost instantly, wanders in now without even a look back and brings home little phrases and things he’s learned from Rita’s. His language has improved massively and overall he just loves it there. Thank you Rita and Chloe for all that you do.

My daughter moved to Rita’s after previous setting closed and she settled in straight away. Growing smiles has a great purpose built setting with a wonderful outdoor provision. Both Rita and Chloe are welcoming and caring and my child is happy to go each day.

My two children have been cared for by Rita since she started Growing Smiles. One of my children was struggling to settle at our previous childcare setting but within a couple of weeks she was settled at Rita’s which made me feel much more at ease. Both my children have flourished in confidence, they are always excited to tell me about their day and at weekends they even ask me if they are going to Rita’s! The set up is brilliant and the activities are innovative. My children are learning lots too and often come home having learnt new skills or facts. I couldn’t fault Rita and her assistant Chloe at all, I highly recommend their childcare services!
