Lena’s Little Comfort: Love and Adventure

Lena's Little Comfort truly lives up to its name—it's a godsend for any parent seeking exceptional care for their little ones. As a first-time parent navigating the daunting world of childcare options, I knew I wanted something more personalised and flexible than a traditional nursery. Lena have exceeded all expectations since day one.

From the initial meeting, their genuine love and dedication to the children shone through. My son started attending at just four months old, and the transition back to work was seamless thanks to their unwavering support and the user-friendly app that kept me updated on his daily activities.

But what truly sets Lena's Little Comfort apart is the enriching environment they provide. As my son has grown from a newborn to an adventurous toddler, Lena have nurtured his development in ways I couldn't have imagined. From learning to count and recognise colours to exploring the wonders of the natural world through forest club outings and hands-on experiences like watching caterpillars transform into butterflies, every day is an adventure.

Their commitment to holistic learning extends beyond the classroom, with cultural celebrations, trips to the library, and even fruit and veg picking excursions that not only educate but also instill a sense of wonder and curiosity in the children.

And let's not forget the food—every meal freshly prepared and home-cooked on-site, ensuring that not only are the children well-fed, but they also develop healthy eating habits from a young age.

In summary, Lena's Little Comfort goes above and beyond to provide a nurturing, stimulating environment where children can thrive. With Lena at the helm, I have complete peace of mind knowing that my son is not only well cared for but also receiving the best possible start in life. If you're looking for childcare that feels like an extension of your own family, look no further than Lena's Little Comfort.

BEST CHILDCARE PROVIDER

Lena is an absolute God send, could have asked for anyone better.

From the day my little bubba started he has been doing exceptionally well. He enjoys activities that allow him to interact and engage with other children daily, with up-to-date facilities that contribute to his growth and development.
Lena has shown and continues to show great support when it comes to the little ones hitting their milestones and the fact that she keeps parents updated throughout the day helps ease your fears, especially if its your first time leaving your little one.
Lena provides healthy snacks which is great! And all the children enjoy her food.
Everyday my little one is learning something new and it shows.

Leans Little Comfort maintains a good rapport with people of all ages which help foster connecting with parents and inspire them to put forth their best effort in contributing to the success and growth of the service.

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!

God sent

My now 3 year old son has been with Lena since he was 19 months old. After a bad experience with a nursery, I didn’t know what to do with my son as he has no siblings or cousins so I was worried about his social skills. Lena has been a God sent and my son LOVES her as do I. My son has developed so much since being with her.

She has taught him age appropriate skills as well as basic academic skills. His speech has improved so much.

She takes the kids out on most days to play groups, parks, shopping trips and more and during the holidays she takes them to the cinema, museums, leisure centres, farms; the list is endless. There are children of different age range who love and adore my son as a younger brother. I couldn’t ask for more.

I would highly recommend Lena to anyone. I know my son is in safe hands with her.

Thank you Lena for being such an important part of our lives.

Childminder that I will truely recommend

My daughter has been coming to Lena since she was one years of age, and I could honestly say that I am so glad that I chose her to look after my daughter. She is the kindest lady and my daughter adores her. There as sometimes I pick her up and she doesn't want to leave as she is having such a good time. My daughter always has stories of the activities they do in the week, and the activities are never the same. This week my daughter was excited that she went to wacky warehouse and the cinema, where she had a good time. My daughter has progressed a long way in her speech and social skills. I am glad I made the right choice!

Thank you Mrs Forbes, I only did my job.
Thanks

my little one loves lena!

Lena treats my daughter like family. she provides a flexible service at a reasonable rate. my daughter comes home with plenty of stories about her adventures with Lena from attending local play groups, trips to the cinema and days at the park. there are a range of age groups at Lena's which i believe has helped my little girl integrate with other children and improve her social skills.
I found it really hard going back to work at the end of maternity leave but since we started at Lena's I've been able to concentrate on my job, knowing that my baby is well cared for.

Best Childminder Ever

Just want to say Lena is an outstanding lady with enormous passion for children. Her home is very clean, tidy with lots of activities suitable for every age.
She is very kind and keeps my boys engaged the whole time they are under her care. She doesn’t just do fun activities but incorporate basic learning into play.

My boys love her so much that they refuse to go home every evening and want to come on the weekend.
So if you are looking for a warm and loving homely environment for your kid(s) give Lena a call and you’ll be glad you did.

Keep up the good work Lena.
