We've never met you - why would we leave our child with you?
Good point! Firstly we would encourage you to come and visit us before you commit to anything, this gives you a chance to make sure we are a 'good fit' for you and your child, and for you to see the spaces we use for each program. Secondly, I can share with you details of the families I am currently working with, so you can contact them and ask them any questions you may have.

Does the monthly charge change from month to month?
No, at the beginning of the year, we work out how many days you will be coming and divide the amount by 10 (the number of months of the year the program runs for). This means you will pay the same fee every month.

Do you have animals in the house?
Yes, we have two cats. The cats are older and tend to hide whenever the children are in the house. They are generally the focus of a lot of excitement if they show themselves.

What if my child has allergies?
We are not a peanut free household. We keep HoL utensils and cutlery separate from the general household. We can talk about your concerns if your child came to HoL. My main concern is that there is often only one person in the house with the children (me), so if a child has an allergic reaction, I have to make sure the other four children are safe, before I focus on the child with the allergic reaction.
