Hollie joined our family in October 2017 when our son was just over a year and half. Personally it was a very difficult time as our search for Hollie was prompted by family illness. Our son had only ever been cared for by immediate family and so the need to find someone that could become part of our family and care for him at home was our aim. I met a number of people before Hollie and no one felt quite right. When Hollie arrived she was full of warmth and our son was immediately at ease, a breath of fresh air.

Hollie has a unique way of being; she is wholeheartedly child led, playful, creative and caring. She delivers intuitive care with limit setting that is clear, safe and with explanation.
She remains connected throughout the day sending photos and updates which are priceless. She adapts to our busy household, rarely phased by comings and goings.

Hollie uses positive praise to introduce and encourage independence skills; toilet training, getting dressed, nose blowing and hand washing for example. We’ve seen such progress in our son as a result of such high quality 1:1 care. Plus the added bonus of Hollie’s daughter leading by example. Our son absolutely adores her and always looked forward to her joining at the end of the school day.

Hollie was with our family for two years however Hollie and her daughter remain very much part of our world. She is quite simply the best!
