Honestly she really is the best! My daughter loves going to Maria’s, she really has grew in confidence, interacting / playing with all the other children, even her speech has come along as she’s talking / having conversations with other children.
I definitely would highly recommend Maria, she’s very caring, lovely and just makes it so much easier when I drop my daughter off as I know she’s happy!
