Our little boy started with Julie and Gemma when he was 9 months old. I was naturally a little anxious about the shift from maternity leave to going back to work and my baby going into childcare. All I can say is that I needn’t have worried! The settling in sessions went well and our son settled in very quickly. The days are fun, varied and creative with lots of outdoor play, art, baking and trips out. I feel like there is a genuine affection and a lovely connection between our son and both Julie and Gemma. He goes in happily every time and I know he will be safe and cared for; I don’t think you can ask for more than that!
