Our daughter has had such a great time there and we are so sad to have to leave as we are moving. Little Engineers have been wonderful right from the start. We were so nervous (as many parents are) when our daughter started, just shy of her 1st birthday. However she settled in amazingly quickly and without any trouble whatsoever (special thanks to lovely Kinnari in the baby room who's an absolute angel!!). It was a difficult time during the first lockdown when parents couldn't attend the settling-in sessions, but our daughter just went through the door with a smile on her face. Since then, she has learnt and grown so much, and really thrived in the setting. Thank you, Little Engineers, for all you have done for our daughter.
