Well laid out content and easy to follow. This was my first course with Janets and I’m more than satisfied! XXX
Francesca Martin
Amazing course! Being a professional in this field for 5 years I can tell what skills you need to become a good child-care specialist and this course contains very informative contents. If you are a beginner I would suggest you to take level 1 course first. This one is for mid-level practitioners and those who have completed level 1 earlier.
Laura McDonald
