Shelley has looked after both of my children, a boy and a girl, and has done a fantastic job at helping them become kind, confident, playful kids. She is warm and welcoming, funny and light-hearted which is what you need after a long day. I chose Shelley as she has a great setting with great toys and activities to stimulate and develop their little brains. I love the fact that she can put 2 little ones in her car and be free to go wherever she wants. All those outdoor trips you just don’t get with a nursery. I wanted my kids to feel like they were at home where they had loads of time in the garden, able to be themselves but also with some structure and routine, and never bored. Shelley has a great reputation with the local mums and play groups. She is so professional and takes immense pride in providing an excellent service. She is organised, structured, and could hold a conversation at the same time as keeping tabs on what the kids are doing around her. Shelley’s youngest boy is a gentle boy, and her eldest boy has been so lovely with my eldest boy and has really looked out for him, because my son was so small for his age, so he was very protective of him. The confidence my kids gained and the exposure to so many activities, environments and experiences has definitely had a direct impact on their happiness and overall well-roundedness.
