I have used this provider for more than 6 months

Moj syn jest najmlodszym z naszych dzieci i jedynym chlopcem, czytaj rozpieszczony. Uwielbia przedszkole, gdzie ma kolegow, zabawki i duzo sie uczy. Widzimy z mezem duze zmiany: jest bardziej samodzileny, wraca do domu usmiechniety, ma duzo energi, wiekszy zasob slow, zainteresowanie cyframi, literami, pyta co tutaj pisze itp. Jestesmy bardzo zadowoleni.
