Nothing was too much trouble to help my daughter settle in and overcome her fear of other children. She now loves playing and meeting new friends. Diane has a knack of assessing what each child needs and encouraging them to develop and grow. The children always go out everyday and no day is the same. My daughter has complex special needs and every single need is met at Little Explorers. All the children have different dietary requirements especially my daughter who has food allergies, but always have a nutritious healthy diet whilst there.
I highly recommend this child minder.
