“Just a note to say a huge thank you to you Mrs Eaton, and all your team for looking after our son so well during his two and a half years at Little Sweethearts. He has had a wonderful time, made many special friends, and learned an enormous amount. We, as parents, could not have been happier with his first experience of school life.”
