Albie has been with Melissa since he was age 1 for two days a week. I looked at a number of settings before deciding that the best option for both of us was Melissa. The reasons for me picking Melissa was firstly I loved the way Mel interacted with Albie & myself and the way she opens up her home for him. Albie to start with was a very challenging little boy and I felt Melissa supported him and his feelings well & helped support me with a few behaviour issues he had.

Albie enjoys going to melissas and he has come on so much with his development since being there. Melissa has shaped him as much as I have into the wonderful, happy & confident little boy he has become and a few techniques she uses I have copied at home.

Albie, Chester & Teddy have now started at pre school together and it is so nice to see how their friendships have grown.

I have absolutely no concerns regarding Melissa, her home or Albies development. I can honestly say sending Albie to melissas has been one of the best decisions I have made and when I drop him off it’s a huge relief that I can go to work knowing Albie is happy.
