LO has been going to Sarah since January 2014 at 10 months. She loves it there, always happy to go in and always have a fantastic time there. Returning to work full time has only been possible because of how much LO loves it at Sarah.
She learns such a lot from Sarah, counting, singing, colours, social skills... Everything I wanted her to learn! In fact, I think Sarah did a much better job than I would have done myself if I had chosen to be a stay at home mum.
Sarah is also very flexible and easy to work with.
