Sarah is fantastic. My little girl went to her before starting nursery and Sarah definitely helped bring her out of her shell! Kind,caring and always there for advice,as well as always putting the kids first. Would certainly reccommend! X

Thank you very much for your lovely review I was very lucky to look after your little princess
Sarah is an amazing child minder and now friend. She is so caring and maternal with the children. My little boy sometimes likes going with Sarah more than me, lol. She is a warm and inviting lady who loves her job and the children she cares for. She always helps whenever I need her even at short notice. I wouldn't leave my little one with anyone else now. xx

Thank you for your lovely review and I so glad we have become such good friends Addison is a joy to have and is like part of the family
Sarah is a lovely lady who I’d now be lost without! She has been very flexible and accommodating with my sons hours and treats him like one of her own. He loves going to her house which puts me at ease when leaving him as I know he enjoys it so much. There are plenty of toys and educational games to keep him busy and Sarah also takes him out to baby and toddler groups which is great! She keeps me updated with his record book to let me know what he’s been up to throughout the day. Thankyou Sarah :-)

Thank you for your kind words I feel like we have known you all a lot longer than we have and Bobbie has settled in so well and is a lovely little boy
Sarah is a fantastic lady with a heart of gold. She welcomed my son into her home and treats him like one of the family.
Collection from school was a major issue when my son started as no afterschool clubs or extended hours were offered. Pickups have been such a great bonus for our family as it's meant I can still work a full day, but remain happy in knowing he'll be greeted with a loving smile.
Lovely, relaxed setting. Plenty of toys, games and activities to keep my son busy. The daily record is great and keeps me up to date with everything I need to know.
Don't know where we'd be without her!
