My daughter was 1 when she went to Marv's and she quickly grew close to Marv and would not want leave when I came to pick her up, she would ask on regular occasions if she could go to Marv's on weekends. My daughters vocabulary enhanced a lot while being with Marv and she loved the regular outings that Marv would take her on.
At the end of day when I would her pick up, Marv would have documented what activities she got up to, new things she had learnt and what my daughter had eat through out the day which made me feel involved in my daughters day while I was away.
Nana Marv is a lovely childminder and would defiantly recommend her to anyone that would like a homely, loving and educational environment for their little one.
