Our daughter started going with Lauren when she was 11 months old and stayed until 3 years old. We would have left her under Lauren's care for much longer, maybe until Reception, if we hadn't had to move abroad for work reasons. Lauren is a very loving, nice and thoughtful person with children and our daughter adores her. She literaly wanted to go and be with her every single day (even on the weekends!) and during all this time she has been a super happy baby/girl with Lauren. The activities Lauren offers are always funny and stimulating (going to parks, playgrounds, todlers groups... and crafting, baking, dancing, and loads of reading), and that included special visits to Alton Towers, Manchester aquarium, farms and other similar trips to learn about animals and the nature. From all of these activities, we have being receiving photos and reports in a diary on a daily basis, so communication between parents and the carer has been always great, and she's also quite flexible regarding timetables, which has been great. The meals Lauren offers are very varied and healthy (and I am extremely picky about my children's food!) and the snacks are plenty and nutricious as well (loads of fruit always available). Lauren is likewise very respectful with the parents and she has always wanted to be engaged with our home languages and cultures in order to understand better our daughter. Our child has also improved her English very fast because of being with Lauren. On top of that, Lauren has even built an excellent relationship with my son (who is at school age) just by him coming with me sometimes to pick his sister up. Lauren's family has been also a great environment for her, including Friday the dog, and she loves them all. I highly recommend Lauren for every parent without any doubt.
