My little one has just moved on from Seeds to Stars, he loved it there! The staff were really lovely and looked after him so much and knew him well, he didn’t want to leave when we picked him up! Communication was great and we got lots of info on the App showing what he had been up to through the day, what he had eaten, toileting and progress updates. Really happy with the care given, would recommend.
