My children have been cared for by Belinda for nearly 4 years. My daughter can be shy, but she settled really well and has always been happy and excited to go to Belinda’s. She treats the children like they are members of her family, and her daughter is so lovely with the children too.

Belinda is very active so they do a lot of outdoor activities as well as playgroups, crafts and meeting friends. I like that my children are in a home based setting while I’m working and they can do some day-to-day things like popping to the shops or helping with baking.

Belinda is very reliable and tends to have smaller groups of children, so I know that my children are getting individual attention when they need it, while also being able to play with others. They have made lovely friends at Belinda’s and we’ll all be sad to leave when my daughter starts full time school in September.
