My daughter Isla (smiler!) has been with Phillipa for 2.5 years since she was 10 months old and I honestly couldn’t have imagined anyone else looking after her in this time.

Isla was so very happy and settled in Phillipa’s care straight away. She was genuinely excited to see her each morning, she adored the other children who all got on amazingly, she had tons of fun and couldn’t wait to tell me what she has been doing that day.

Phillipa was always thinking and introducing new things to do and experience and taking the children on regular adventures. She kept us updated throughout the day sending regular pictures and videos of what they’re up to, what activities have been planned, what Isla learned that day, funny/cute things that happened and I because of this I felt like I was a constant part of Isla’s experiences and could talk to her about it afterwards.

I believe that with the help of Phillipa, Isla’s development progressed extremely well and she was learning something new all the time.
Having the developmental reviews and ‘next steps’ really helped me, as a first time parent, understand the natural next steps in Islas development and how I could continue to help her progress at home.

As much as Isla is a well behaved child, I trusted Phillipa to help promote what is right and wrong, boundaries, manners and to always be kind to others. Phillipa was always supportive and I felt I could and still can ask her opinion on anything.

Isla is starting a new nursery in September which I feel is the natural progressive next step for her now her older friends are starting school. Phillipa has been very supportive and especially with Isla, encouraging her to be brave about the changes to come.

We are all very sad their time has come to an end (this isn’t goodbye) and I couldn’t recommend Phillipa enough to any parent who is looking for a caring and nurturing setting for their child.

Thank you always ❤️
