An outstanding childcare provided by Laura. Daily updates, 100% attention, homemade food, regular trips to farms, playgrounds, parks, even beaches and gym tots, weekly swimming lessons - all included in the price. Laura, her mum and her family will provide the best enviroment for your child and every day will be filled with entertainment, laughs, plays, learning and also cuddles if needed. My son was so happy at Laura's place and was talking about her even at home. He still misses her and all his friends. Would recommend this Childcare to everyone - the best one in the area. Thank you so much for everything.
