### null review (5/5)

It was a bit nerve-wracking for us since it’s our first time living outside Korea, but I’m really glad my kids are settling in so well at the kindergarten. Nirmala generally understands children really well and handles them brilliantly, so even if it’s your first time at kindergarten, I’m sure they’ll settle in just fine. And also, the teachers are super friendly and full of energy, and I really appreciate how well they’re looking after them.

I’m so grateful to the amazing team at Minnows! My son had a tough time at his previous daycare and I was nervous about moving him, but the teachers here made the transition so smooth. They welcomed him with open arms, took the time to get to know him, and created such a calm and supportive environment. He has settled in beautifully and now looks forward to going every day. I can’t thank the staff enough for their patience, kindness and dedication, they’ve made such a difference for our family. Highly recommend!

Our daughter started at Minnows earlier this year and it has been a really positive experience. She has grown in confidence over this time and I put that down to the caring and nurturing environment that Nirmala and the other wonderful teachers have created.
