My daughter started at Kelley's just after her 1st birthday, as I returned to work. From the start Kelley was great - reassuring all my fears at leaving my clingy baby with someone else. Following a couple of meetings we agreed a settling in timetable that I was happy with that would have us settled before I started work. And it worked! I was able to return to work without worry.

Four years later my daughter is now in year 1 at school. Kelley helped prepare her for first for nursery, during which Kelley was able to adapt her routines to continue looking after my daughter, and then for a change to school. Once we started school we had to say goodbye to Kelley as our school didn't fit with pre-existing school runs. But we still return to Kelley during school holidays, and at short notice snow days etc. My daughter steps back in as if she was never away.

My daughter settled into Kelley's easily, and, over the years has really felt part of the family there. She enjoys the activities there and looks forward to returning there in holidays. Kelley is great at keeping me updated, and also offering advice and support from her years of experience when I have needed it.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Kelley to anyone looking for childcare.
