We chose Mary after reading such good reviews online and having her referred from another mum. Any concerns I had about leaving my then-9-month-old baby with her were very quickly dispelled. My son is now almost 2 years old: we've been with Mary for over a year...and we literally couldn't be happier! Mary is amazing, from the days out, to the wonderful home-cooked food, to weaning advice, to her flexibility and her help in ensuring our son develops in the right way. He has come on leaps and bounds since being with Mary, and he absolutely loves her and her three boys. He seems to have adopted them as a second family!! All in all, I couldn't be happier and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mary. We never want to leave!! We are more than happy to chat to any parents thinking about using Mary to tell them in person just how brilliant she is.
