Very lucky to have had Stephen (and his wife Jean) looking after my youngest from one year until starting school. They provide such a warm and caring environment. Stephen is kind, great at really getting down and playing with the children, and has the amazing ability to create a home environment that's calm, despite having several children in it!

Stephen will often take the children out on adventures (fire station, woods, the zoo, walks etc) and does lots of creative play too.

I've seen how he encourages older ones to show care and consideration towards little ones, and in doing so, creates a compassionate family environment for the children to thrive in.

Stephen and Jean are two very special people. We were so lucky to have had them in our son's life.
