Mary Poppins ! Absolutely outstanding

Mischelle cared for my three children for nearly ten years. Over that time she has definitely become part of our family. We chose Mischelle due to her warm and friendly personality and how welcoming she was. Mischelle's care and love enabled our first daughter to grow and flourish, she loved her time with Mischelle, we also met her husband and daughter and we became like extended family. Our daughter loved the trips out and went to a variety of places, which gave her opportunities she may not have had. When our next daughter was born, our lives changed forever as she was born with rare cardiac defects that cannot be repaired, she was in hospital for just under one year. It's hard to put into words really how supportive Mischelle was to us as a family. When our daughter did get home she required care above and beyond that of a nanny or childminder, yet Mischelle learnt how to care for her, meet her needs, medication and gastrostomy feeding and medication, she did this without question. Her continued care of our first daughter and then our second was outstanding. Our daughter was always included in the activities ane had experiences we were told would never happen. If Mischelle hadn't taken on these needs our lives would have been very different. Our daughter went onto have further surgery to improve her quality of life and Mischelle never faultered, we owe her everything. Our third daughter was born the following year and slipped straight into the same routine as the others. They all have a creative flair, which I firmly believe is down to the craft activities Mischelled provided, their favourite colour is purple and everything has to sparkle ( like Mischelle) Mischelle and her family are firmly part of all our lives and will continue to remain very much part of our extended family. All our daughters are now settled into school. They are happy, confident, creative girls who continue to achieve their individual success. Mischelle has loved, nurtured and provided outstanding opportunities and experiences for our daughters, as parents, Mischelle has gone above and beyond her role. Our girls continue to talk about her and her family often and she's given our family a bright future.
