We found Sally, Nigel and Janice 4 years ago now and I can honestly say choosing the Ark for our boys has been the best decision we made for their childcare!

We found Sally while I was on maternity leave with my second son after being disappointed by a previous inflexible nursery setting with my eldest.

Sally and the Ark couldn’t have been more different. They are incredibly supportive and caring of every child, taking the time to really get to know them and understand what motivates each child and setting up the setting each day with activities specifically designed to appeal to the children attending each day.

They were great at helping us settle in our eldest (who settled incredibly quickly!) and then welcomed our youngest into the Ark family when he was 10 months old. I loved seeing our boys together in one setting and playing with all different age groups.

When our eldest left for school, the youngest didn’t even bat an eyelid because of the really strong bonds he’d formed with the other children and with Sally, Nigel and Janice. They have both absolutely loved going to the Ark and I can honestly say I’ve never worried about either of the children while they’ve been at Ark knowing they will be incredibly well looked after, supported and loved.

Both boys have thrived being with Sally, Nigel and Janice and I only wish they continued the Ark into primary school!
