My husband and I moved to Milton Keynes last year just before the birth of our daughter. The move to a new town, no immediate family & friends around and both our work places in London meant long hours away from the baby once my maternity leave ended. Also, our daughter has severe eczema. Finding the right childcare was therefore our most pressing concern.
All that concern was put to rest when we met Carole and her lovely family. Right from our very first meeting with Carole to our daughter's first settling in day, everything was so smooth and the interaction professional yet so friendly - we knew it was the right decision. Mehiera took to Carole almost instantly (and so did we!) and has settled like a dream. Mehiera is 14 months old and has been going to Carole's for the last two months. It definitely seems longer than that.

Carole is brilliant with the children. She is a natural at comprehending the children's needs and is so loving, so giving. I'm always met with the sight of happy children across different age groups. Carole's husband, Dave and their two daughters are equally wonderful and engaged. The Culver home provides not only a safe and warm environment but also a fun, stimulating one that encourages children to explore and interact. Mehiera is a spirited child and Carole nurtures that spirit- we have noticed so much development and confidence in just two months.
In this short time, we have also seen nasty eczema flare-ups, diet restrictions and Carole has been on top of it all. In fact, the Culver family has ensured special attention during those times. I know Carole is genuinely concerned and takes such great care of Mehiera- offering advice and even offering to maintain a food diary. As a parent who is particularly worried about their child in this regard, there is no greater reassurance. ?

Carole goes out of her way and is genuinely invested in the wellbeing of the children in her care. She is everything we'd hoped for and more, and cannot recommend her enough.
