Our daughter joined the Big Family coming from another childminder at 2 years and only stayed for about 6 months as we moved out of London and our experience of the childcare setting has been extraordinary. Our daughter settled in very well thanks to the established routine Iara and Bruno put in place. An array of arts, crafts and play outdoor is organised and activities are geared towards the child's interest. There is a lot of creativity and organisation happening in a loving and 'home from home' setting. Iara and Bruno were able to understand so much of our daughter in such a short time and were genuinely intersted in giving her the best of what they could offer. Our daughter was a fan of Iara and Bruno's food, even if we didn't follow a vegan diet at home. We loved that our daughter was able to pick up some words in Brazilian Portuguese and that Bruno could understand some French books we brought from home. Communication with us was easy (daily chat, updates through an app plus an electronic newsletter), expectations were always very clear. When our daughter moved to anoher setting in a different own, Iara and Bruno produced a full report for this new setting, showing age-appropriate skills our daughter had achieved. After a few year, we're still in touch with Iara and Bruno, have visited a few times and share news of our daughter growing up. I would highly recommend the Big Family setting, Iara and Bruno give their best, all the time!
