The team have been so lovely and really looked after my daughter. They have been really accommodating and helped me continue to breastfeed as well as settle my daughter into a new routine. She had a bit of a tough time getting used to nursery but now goes in with a smile and waves me off. She was poorly in her first week and they acted promptly to tell me and helped her settle her back in as she recovered from an ear infection.
