2014 update
Well, it's now 2014 and we have been with Sue for nearly 9 years now.
Since my last comment our son has developed a long term health.condition, which we have all struggled to manage and come to terms with. I'm certain many child minders would have felt that the responsibility would be too much. This was not the case with Sue. She has actively been involved with managing his care and health needs, and received training from the nurses relating to managing his health and medication. Since his diagnosis, Sue has been a real rock of support, and has kept us up to date when there has been any problems relating to his condition.
I would highly recommend Sue as a childminder.
