Sam has looked after my little boy for almost 18 months. Despite the challenges of the pandemic and the multiple lockdowns we had, Sam was always accommodating and flexible, and still ensured the children had a variety of activities to do both in her setting and trips outside. My son was shy and anxious when starting with Sam, but she was always welcoming and reassuring and he soon settled. Now he looks forward to going to see her and all of the friends he’s made. Sam encourages activities to aid development, and it’s clear to see the progress our son has made during his time with her. He enjoyed regular trips to a variety of places and had lots of social interaction with other childminders and their children. We are so sad to be leaving, but are unfortunately relocating out of the area. Highly recommend Sam!
