My daughter, Mabel, started her childcare experience with Chrisse at 16 months. I was worried as Mabel was quite clingy but from the moment she set foot inside that door my little girl was settled. Chrissie is just wonderful, children love her and parents are reassured by her. Mabel stayed with Chrissie until she was 3 and went to pre school. Chrissie prepared her so well and Mabel loved her 'Chrissie days' so much. She came on so well in her care, could recognise her name, feed herself, use the toilet and enjoy many craft activities. She grew in confidence and really thrived. We were all so sad when it was time to leave, Chrissie not only supported Mabel but me too. Whenever I questioned my parenting decisions she was there to reassure me and give me advice. I know that Chrissie will in be in our lives forever, she has been such an important part of Mabel's early years and I will be forever grateful.
