Lydia looked after my baby from when she was 3 months old. It was hard for me to have someone else care for my baby when she was so young but Lydia was amazing with her. I saw my daughter make excellent progress with her development and routines due to the consistent and varied stimulation Lydia provided. As a first time mum, she offered a lot of support and offered me excellent advice when I asked for it, which really helped me. What is most evident is Lydia's care and passion for children as she always wants to make sure parents and the children are happy. She is always very flexible when required. She always kept me updated throughout the day about how my daughter was doing which made me feel at ease. My daughter honestly thrived in her care and if we hadn't moved far away from where Lydia is, she would still be caring for my daughter now.
