What Parents Say About Us
We were fortunate to meet Marielle at our eldest daughter’s nursery, where she quickly became her safe haven and best friend. I cannot praise Marielle’s professionalism enough, nor describe just how much our girls truly adore her.
She has a natural gift for building deep, unique connections with children. In addition, she is exceptionally organised, reliable, and simply a natural when it comes to caring for kids. We feel so grateful to have met her and to still have her looking after our youngest now.
Marielle always goes above and beyond for the children in her care. Alongside her strong professional and educational background, her warm and cheerful personality immediately puts you at ease. I wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend her.

Meet Marielle
At Étoile, my heart lies in creating a nurturing environment where your little ones feel safe, valued and celebrated. With warmth, positive energy and a love for imaginative play, my passion lies in encouraging your child’s emotional well-being and beautiful individuality to shine through in their formative early years.
As a Psychology student at Bath Spa University, I bring a thoughtful, holistic approach to childcare. My recent 8-month placement at New York University as a child linguistics research assistant enriched my understanding of early year development and cognitive processes.
A highlight of my experience was presenting my early years language development thesis at a conference, focusing on children of all abilities and learning types. This experience helped shape my attachment-based philosophy, prioritising a safe, supportive environment tailored to your child’s self-expression and curiosity.
