How do I begin to express what Karen has done for our now 2 year old. Our daughter joined Karen when she had just turned 1, a year ago. She settled in so soon and made friends, but most importantly, bonded so well with Karen! Karen is so loving, caring and treats our girl as her own, trust me. You cannot fake that kind of love and care, it is real and so natural! She looks after her so well. Oh and my, the growth we've seen and the attention she gets - such a huge difference from the care she gets at nursery on the other 2 days. Our girl has grown up to be a smart and confident little lady who loves going to Karen's and even talks at it at home. There's so many activities, singing, dancing, playing. Never a dull moment. Karen takes good care of her and is very focussed on her development and keeping track of it. The communication is brilliant during pickup and we get pictures throughout the day. Karen also works with another childminder friend of hers, Angela, and all the children mix together a couple of times a week so there is more to do and learn. Our little girl has been with Karen a year not and has grown so much, I cannot wait to see what the future brings. We love you Karen! xx
