Lisa has looked after both my daughters since they were 10 months and 1 year old respectively (they are now aged 9 and 5). They both still love going to her house, and we all consider Lisa to be part of our family. She looks after her children in a loving, friendly environment and gives them so much to do and so many wonderful experiences. In short, she is the mother I wish I had time to be. I would recommend her in an instant to anyone who wants their child to be cared for in a non-nursery, 'non-sterile' setting.
