Sue has been childminding for my little boy foe the past 15 months, in this time she has helped him develop from a 9 month old baby to fun, outgoing, confident and bubbly toddler. Sue and her family have been consistently warm and welcoming and the family dog has become a most trusted and loved friend of my little guy. In his time at Sues, J has been on daily outings, enjoyed her expansive garden and in addition to playing with the wide variety of toys she provides, he has engaged in a wide range of play activities including play dough, painting, collage. We love looking though his observations and photos to see all of the exciting things and mile stones he has reached during his time with her. Sue is a warm and caring child minder who has a calm and consistent manner with little ones, she has been attentive and sensitive to J's needs, giving him plenty of cuddles when needed and supporting myself and my husband with her advice and experience. Sue really has been a god send and made returning to work as a new mum much easier than I anticipated, it is with tremendous sadness that we are moving on due to changes in personal circumstances.
