My Daughter has been going to Mel's little explorers for over 14 months now, since she was 6 months .
I was really apprehensive about putting her in childcare as any 1st time parents would be but it's the best thing we did.
I am really happy with the care and service Melisa provides and now my son has started too and he is 6 months old.
As a family we definately recommend Mel's little explorers .
