We've been with Melissa since 2018 (5 years), first with our son and now our youngest daughter who attends four days a week. Since day one, she helped put us at ease and both our children soon settled in.

Melissa is a wonderful and naturally generous person who is always caring for others. She creates varied and educational play to help build children up gradually to more formal educational settings and even gave advice on schools and next step development for our son when he was at the right age.

Her setting is close to Crystal Palace park, so there are regular trips there, as well as further afield to add variety with prior notice (particularly in summer months).

Her cooking is to be a very high standard, is varied, healthy and delicious and has really helped both children expand their food horizons.

Her setting is always clean and tidy with outdoor space.

We couldn't recommend Melissa more and are so happy we found her and her wonderful family.
