Thank you so much ,he is a lovely boy,
How the last 4 years have flown.
I have been using Sally for just over a year and a half now. As a mother to a miracle daughter I was very nervous about leaving her. I went to visit Sally to discuss our requirements and to see the surroundings. I needn’t have been nervous at all. Sally was very understanding of my nerves being a first time mum, she never made me feel silly about any questions I had. Everything was so clean and friendly and well organised. My daughter loves going to Sally’s I get updates during the day as to what activities she is doing which is lovely to see. My daughter has learnt so much from being with Sally. She has tried lots of new foods that I would never have thought about giving my daughter. She loves taking the other children to school and often talks about them. It’s lovely to know she is so happy.

Thank you very much, she is a lovely little girl 😄
I have been using Sally as my child minder for over a year now and can honestly say I wouldn't feel comfortable leaving my daughter with anyone else. She provides a lovely caring and fun environment and has never let me down. My daughter loves going with Sally and they have a great vapour together. Would highly recommend!!!!!
