I have just recently started using this childminder, and I have been put at ease from day one . My daughter is so happy to come here and it is like being at home, she is made to feel part of the family by everyone in the house. I acn never get my daughter to leave because she is so happy there. Asking Days Of Fun to be my childminder is the best decision I have ever made, and there is fun in Days Of Fun. Thank you

Our 2yr old little girl has been going to Sarah now since September. Being new to the area and not knowing anyone in Ludgershall, Sarah was one of only 2 childminders we looked at and to be honest once we had met her we really didn't need to meet any others.
She is so genuinely interested and involved with the children, immediately interacted with Mia and the downstairs part of her house (inside and out) seems almost entirely devoted to children with different play areas and an unbelievable amount of activity 'stuff' - quite apart from all the outings she takes the children on!
Sarah's whole family and set up couldn't be more suited to childminding - we have complete confidence in her (just slightly worried that Mia has more fun at Sarah's than she does at home!).
The last thing to say is that Sarah's flexibility is second to none - nothing is too much trouble and quite honestly I just don't know how she does it.
A big big thank you Sarah!

Thank you
Our 17 month old son has been coming to Sarah for about 4 months now and we could not be happier, she is absolutely wonderful. It is a joy to see Luke get so excited when we get into her road and run straight in without an issue at all, although it does make hometime a bit tricky because he doesn't want to leave! Sarahs home has 3 separate play rooms/areas and they are constantly out and about too, so there is always something to do. I would recommend Sarah 10000000000%, her dedication and genuine affection for all of her childminding children is outstanding. We will be verysad to leave her on our next posting :( xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

My 2 children started coming to Sarah after issues with a previous childminder and she was brilliant right from the start, Sarah put my 3 year old at ease right from the start of the transition and even wanted to know what activities she enjoyed at the previous CM so she could help her feel settled! Sarah is so focused on the children and everything she does is for them right down to the amazing play area shes had built in the garden! During the holidays there wasn't a day that she didn't have activities planned! Sarah is by far the best childminder I have come across and I genuinely couldn't recommend her enough!! My kids love her if you want a Childminder that is 100% focused on whats best for your children then Sarah is for you!!!!

My little girls have been going to Sarah for a few months now and love it, from the minute we turn into the road my 2 yr old gets all excited and getting her to leave isn't easy :)
We also have Sarah's daughter as our babysitter and so I can say between them they offer a all round service.
