My son has been with Sam since he was 6 months old. I think only she could have persevered with the tough time he gave her settling in. She tried all she could including baby slings and extra cuddles. It worked like a charm.

Since then, I have seen him grow more and more independent and confident. He loves sharing and has learnt to be empathetic with his peers.

I have had occasions where I was running late and Sam is always ready to accomodate, above and beyond her duties to make my life easier. I now don't know how I could have managed without her these past 7 years.

Sadly I have to say goodbye to her due to relocation. We have become more like family friends and likely to stay in touch for a long time to come.
