Soar Childcare - Marion Walker
What parents say about us!
We feel Marion provides a fantastic environment that is both highly nurturing and stimulating for our little girl. They provide a unique environment that is both homely but with all the developmental benefits that a nursery could offer. Marion always provides developmentally appropriate activities for the children to explore both indoors and outdoors that are sensory, playful and usually with a theme, guided by the children. Marion always provides lovely meals and snacks for the children and we have observed significant improvement our little girls' eating since she has been there.
We feel that our children flourished in the time spent with Marion.
-Hannah and Seb
Our kids have been with Marion for three and half years now and it feels like home from home for us all now. The level of care and attention exceeds our expectations and is of an exceptionally high standard. The children are respected and encouraged to express their views and share their experiences. We have seen their confidence grow in the time they have been with Marion and Graeme and we can honestly say that they have helped to mould them into the wonderful people they are.
The setting is comfortable, bright, clean and energising. Both our children are always fascinated to see how the room has been setup when topic change and enjoy taking part in shaping changes to the room. They are eager to get involved and explore as soon as they arrive...We feel incredibly lucky to find something that fits in with our lives and yet is the best environment for our children. - Tanvi and Jonathan
Marion has always helped celebrate the diversity of the setting and it is great to hear our daughter talk about how "we are all different" in her general monologues at home. Marion is kind enough to ask us whether there are specific areas of learning we would like to focus on for our child and has really helped in the development of her "road sense." We also really admire Marion's inequity and imagination with the setting and their ability to turn a large box into a pirate ship for the children. We believe that her setting is the best that our kids can get at this stage in their development.

As a primary school teacher myself, I find it inspiring how Marion adapted their home to cater for the needs of the children they care for. They send weekly plans which are imaginative, informative and fun. Our children love the activities and regularly bring home lovely creations. I am able to support and encourage learning and activities to contribute to those planned as I am informed of the plans in advance. Both of our children love Marion dearly and I greatly appreciate being able to go to work and not have any concerns about the welfare of my children. They provide a home from home setting with a very good balance of Early Years elements, their care is second to none and we could not give them a higher recommendation.
