My daughter was cared for by Maxine for a year before she started preschool. Maxine is a very calm and caring person. She supported my daughter brilliantly through the translations of having a new baby brother and starting preschool,and I feel that because of Maxine’s support my daughter was able to deal with these positively.

Maxine works hard to built positive relationships with both children and their families which she cares for, this meant that we were able to share information and deal with any issues consistently.

Maxine took my daughter to a wide range of groups and this helped her to build her confidence with both other children and adults. Maxine would often plan activities that followed my daughters interests and would feed these back to me at the end of each day through face to face discussion and daily emails. I would look forward to the daily emails and seeing and hearing what our daughter had done.

Maxine is very professional in her approach and I always felt happy and confident to leave my daughter with her.
