My son went to nursery for a year before he went to paulines. He didnt take to nursery and was just really unhappy. Since going to paulines he has really come out of his shell and is so happy to go every morning. Its in fact the only way i can get him into bed. She cares for him really well and im never nervous or worried when he is there. I cant fault her and would definatly recommend.
