Charlotte has been looking after our little boy for some time now and she has been fantastic.
Always helpful and supportive and excellent at keeping in touch with us whenever she has any concerns or questions about our son. Also brilliant at keeping updated with more formal/practical information.
My son really has taken to Charlotte and enjoyed spending time with her. She took him out to mead open farm, baby groups and the zoo many times and always sent us lots of beautiful pictures to let us know what he had been up to. I was always guaranteed my son would have a good nights sleep after a fun filled day with Charlotte.
I can not recommend her enough and I know my son will miss her lots.
