Amanda and her four lovely assistants have looked after our 16 month old little boy since September. Our son is really settled and is very eager to go to Amanda for a cuddle in the morning when we drop him off. This is a huge weight off our mind because, until he was one, he was only used to being looked after by my husband and myself. We are very pleased he settled so well and so quickly. Amanda and her team provide a varied day of activities including lots of arts and crafts, nursery rhymes, baking, walks out etc. Our son has brought home some lovely pieces of art which are great keepsakes (e.g. foot and handprint Santa and reindeer picture at Christmas). The home cooked food smells delicious and is nicely balanced -we think the meals are great value for money. Amanda has also been very flexible with the days we take our son to childcare (we do 3 days one week and 2 the next on a rota) -this is a massive plus for us. Another important point is that Amanda and her team ensure the children all act with respect towards each other, reminding them about sharing, using good manners and teaching them about personal space etc. Overall we are very happy with the way that our son is cared for by Amanda and her assistants and are pleased to pick up a (usually) happy smiling boy at the end of the day.
