My daughter has attended Smile and Shine for almost 2 years now and she will be leaving due to starting school in September.
I can only say positive things about the time she has spent in Mani's setting with Mani and the fantastic staff she has working alongside her. The setting is amazing with a lovely large garden and lots of toys, games and books to suit every child. Olivia has developed into a happy and confident little girl who is more than ready to start school and this is definitely down to her learning experiences with Mani. Olivia enjoys all the activities that are provided and she is challenged to keep developing her learning in areas such as writing, reading and number. Children often go on local trips such as the park, other childminding settings and to a residential care home, which are so enjoyable for all the children. Olivia has such good relationships with staff and children in the setting, she settled in almost immediately when starting the nursery at the age of 2. She looks forward to every day at nursery and at the end of the day I receive thorough updates about the day. I could not have asked for better care for Olivia.
Olivia says "I will miss the nursery when I go to school and everyone".
