I found Sam on here, after visiting a few different childminders in the area we decided to go with Sam because our little girl instantly took a liking to Sam. My daughter is 2.5 years old and has never been away from me or my husband as we have always managed the childcare between us. We now have another baby on the way and our little girl will be due to start nursery next year so we thought it was time for her to start having some playtime with other children. Our little girl settled in to Sams house very quickly and has grown to trust Sam very quickly. Sam shows our little girl care and love when we are not there and comforts her if she is having a little wobble about being away from us. She always bounces out at the end of the day with endless tales of what her and the other children have been up to during the day. Sam also provides us with a summary at the end of each session to let us know how she has got on. I am very happy that we found Sam and I hope for our little girl to keep being with Sam until she joins full time school/ nursery. Hopefully even start our next child with her when the time comes. Thank you Sam you have really helped our little girl (and mummy) cope with this new part of life.
