Rosie has been looking after our daughter Eloise for the last few years (from 6 months, to 3 and a half years old). Eloise sees Rosie, and the other children that Rosie looks after, as her extended family. She clearly loves going there. Rosie has nurtured Eloise into a lovely young girl - confident, inquisitive, polite and happy. Rosie has done a wonderful job of teaching her everything that she should know for every level of age she has passed through, and much much more. There is a lovely balance of indoors and outdoors activity, learning through play, and an environment of real warmth and love. Rosie takes great interest in Eloise's own family, which Eloise loves, so they can chat about what Eloise does in the evenings, on the weekends, and on holiday, whether that's with her parents, her cousins, her grandparents, or Beatrice the cat. We have just had another daughter arrive, and would love for Rosie to look after her too!
