We placed our second child with Michelle, just before his first birthday. This was an easy decision for us after having such an amazing experience with Michelle, first time around with our first child. Handing your child over doesn’t get easier however Michelle was amazing and helped our son quickly settle. There were lots of tears to begin with but Michelle was great and now he runs to the door and can’t wait to go off on adventures with Michelle and the other children in her care.

Michelle provides lots of rich activities and they are always off on adventures. My son attends a variety of toddler groups, is taken regularly on outings to the park as well as soft play. We feel the varied activities have enabled him to develop his gross and fine motor skills as well as providing a variety of opportunities for my son to socialise with a wide range of children in different settings which has really supported his communication and social skills.

Our communication with Michelle is second to none, she regularly updates us with development milestones and shares pictures so we know how he is getting on.

Michelle has greatly supported us as a family and always goes above and beyond to help us out if we are a bit stuck. Michelle shows so much care and love for our son, she feels like a big part of our family. She looks after our son like one of her own and I am forever grateful. Our son is safe, happy and developing well in her care, he adores Michelle and her family.
