Carmela has been an absolute godsend!
She has been looking after both of our children for the past 6.5 years. My son (now seven and at school) still absolutely loves going to see her, which is testament to her inspired approach to childcare. Still caring for my daughter, aged four, she provides an amazing welcoming environment where nothing is too much trouble, the children are allowed to play as they wish and are shown as much love and compassion as though they were her own children.
Together with her husband Simon, she encourages the children to try new things by learning through play, including cooking, dancing, learning about road safety, reading and writing, painting, messy play, singing and generally having lots of fun! Particular highlights for both my children have been the regular trips out and about, down to the river to learn about nature, and to other group activities including beach visits, Monkey Gym and Twinkletoes. The trips involving bus rides are the best!
We are so grateful to Carmela for the love and care she has shown our children, and could not have picked, nor wished for, a better person to have looked after our babies for all of these years.
