My son A has been going to Erica since he was 11 months old (now nearly 3 years).

I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is warm, caring, enthusiastic, reliable and A absolutely loves going there. Her house is very clean and equipped with a range of toys and learning aids to stimulate babies and children. The garden is also very well equipped with trampoline/water table etc to entertain the children. They go on regular outings to local parks, playgroups and libraries as well.

Since starting with Erica I noticed that my son developed in a range of ways - in terms of eating, table manners, communication and language. At a review I had mentioned to Erica that A wasn’t particularly keen on physical activity and she took this on board. A few months later I noticed a significant improvement in his ability and confidence on climbing frames/ladders at the playground. She really makes the effort to get to know each child individually and encourage their development.

The food provided is always varied and A (having been a very picky eater) often talks about wanting foods/snacks that he has eaten at Erica’s house.

Overall we are delighted that we chose to send A to such a warm and nurturing environment.
