I found Marcelle through this site and I'm so pleased I did, she takes care of my young son who started at 6mths and is now 10mths.
From the beginning she has been very reassuring and caring towards us both, mindful of how I might feel leaving him, she would send me photos during the day of what he was doing, which I loved receiving and continue to get.
My son is happy and content to be left with Marcelle and she clearly loves to take care of him. Marcelle enjoys taking the children in her care outside to parks, forest walks, strawberry picking etc.... I like the fact he is experiencing new things when I can't be with him.
I will soon be returning to my 2nd job and he will be spending more time with Marcelle, I have no doubt he'll continue to thrive in her care.
