Unique Home away from Home

Reviewed

Our daughter has been part of the Big Family from 10 months to age 3 and this has been a truly wonderful experience.
As a mother, but also a psychotherapist by profession and aware of the importance of attachment during these first crucial years, I could not think of a more appropriate environment. This setting is truly unique for London.
What sets it apart is the genuine abundance of love and passion these professionals have for children. They work so hard and yet they manage to have fun each and every day. Our daughter truly benefited from the structures and routines they put in place, while in the same time having lots of laughter and developing a sense for music (Bruno’s high point), arts (I think this is Iara’s skill), reading, wonder for nature and all abilities who make her the wonderful person she became.
She absolutely loved the food, which took a lot of pressure away from us and home cooked meals, and with other parents we were joking that she came cleaner at the end of the day than she was originally dropped off :)
Finally, communication with us parents was excellent, we developed a sense of community and felt that we were part of the family as well. We miss them dearly and will be forever grateful.
