Thoroughly recommend Sue!

Sue has cared for my son from the age of 9months for three days a week and daughter before and after school, since May 2021.

Since day one both children look forward to and ask for ‘Sue days’ during the week. She is always welcoming, warm and friendly. She is reliable and flexible in times when we’ve made slight changes to the childcare. The children feel safe and secure in her care and I am confident that Sue puts their needs first.

Sue has a wide selection of toys and recourses for the children to play and engage with, and a large garden area for them to play in the warmer months. She provides a wide range of activities and has endless amounts of arts and crafts that she uses with the children. With my son in particular, Sue incorporates daily creating, making, experimenting with different media, counting/number work and fine motor activities. If there are any celebrations or world wide events taking place she will go above and beyond to put these into context for the children, providing engaging activities that will help them to understand the event and tailor it to their age. These are all areas that will support him in working towards some of the key Early Learning Goals.

Sue takes my son to weekly playgroups and sometimes Forest schools which he absolutely loves. He will always bring a craft back with him and will clearly articulate what he did and who he saw. These sessions have really helped to develop my sons confidence around adults and children as he can be quite shy in new situations or around unfamiliar people. During times when Sue has cared for both children for the day she has taken them for days out to the beach and has taken them to visit farms. Sue also provides sufficient exercise for my son that is appropriate for his age and little legs, mostly in the form of nature/dog walks and park visits.

We cannot recommend Sue enough. She has supported our children to grow and develop into confident, happy and kind little people.
