Sarah is truly a wonderful wonderful person. My child has been with her for 2 years and I have just started my baby with her too. Both boys have learned so much in her care and are very happy to be dropped off and when I pick them up. She is so caring and nurturing and the boys do a lot of learning too. With her nursery experience, Sarah teaches them first sounds for reading as well as mark making skills to set them up for when they start school. They do a lot of singing and counting and often come home with a new song to teach us. I can’t thank Sarah enough for what she’s done for us as a family, I would wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone interested in choosing a childminder in the area. 😊

We had an amazing experience with Sarah. My son completely loved spending the day in her care and when I picked him up he was very happy.
Sarah is very friendly and helpful and answered all my questions. She also sent me updates during the day which was amazing as it was the first time my son was staying with her.
I will definitely send my son back again and would highly recommend her.

Sarah is the most amazing childminder, when my son started to go to her home, he did not want to go but with no time she gain his trust and he loved going to "Sarah's house". He was everyday asking "today we go to Sarah's house?" because he loved going there.
Sarah is very organize and always have different activities ready for the kids. Every day she sends an update of all the activities' they do as well as (sometimes) some pictures, which is very reassuring. She always goes above and beyond to make sure children have fun along with there learning. I am so grateful that we found Sarah!!!

Sarah has had my son since he was 10 months old .As a nervous first -time parent returning to work ,I was worried about leaving him with someone new but my son took to Sarah straight away and it has been as easy leaving him with her as it would be leaving him with part of family .Sarah is great , extremely flexible helpful with fantastic manner with children .She arranges appropriate developmental activities and has a wonderful selection of toys ,she make sure to get the children outside in her garden at least once per day when the weather allowed and also she prepares varied nutritionally balanced meal .
I could not ask for better and would highly recommend her .
Thank you for everything we will miss you !

After visiting many (if not all!) nurseries and childminders around NW London, it was just when I met Sarah that my anxiety about leaving my baby disappeared. I have known her already for a few years as both of my kids attended her settling and I can’t recommend her highly enough. My son was with her since he was 11 months is leaving soon to start nursery-school.
Sarah is very profesional and dedicated, she always goes above and beyond to make sure that the children are happy. She is very experienced with children and she shows her ability to help the little ones navigating their different challenges.
In addition to providing dedicated care, I love that she sets her settling as a little nursery with many different play areas and toys that she changes regularly. Therefore the children will find here a very stimulating environment. She also has a garden that she uses regularly with planned activities and toys for the children.
She provides home made food, a very clean environment and daily updates to parents. The communication with her is always fluent and easy.
Finding Sarah was definitely a blessing for our family and we can’t thank her enough.

Sarah and her team have been amazing for us and our little boy. It was quite nerve racking as a parent leaving your child with someone for the 1st time but from day 1 we have been able to see the care that our son has had and his amazing progress since being there.
Our son is always happy to be dropped off and runs inside for his daily adventures. He has opportunities to paint, play, explore, read, sing and anything he is interested in. Sarah’s experience is really obvious as soon as you meet her. Our little boy loves going there daily and has learnt so much. Sarah is so lovely and so supportive, we definitely made the right choice!
We can’t thank Sarah, Hannah and Patricia enough.

Having moved in the area 18 months ago, we were very lucky to find a warm, loving home for our little one at Sarah's. Sarah and her team have been nothing short of amazing. She took on our little one from when he was a shy boy, and he left a confident & kind young boy ready for the next chapter in his short-lived life. From the daily midday updates to the end of day verbal update, Sarah's consistency and devotion are truly admirable. Whether you're a first-time parent or not, we can not recommend Sarah enough to put your mind at ease and rest assured that your little one is surrounded by nothing but love and care from the get go!. Thank you Sarah, Hannah and Patricia!! We were truly blessed to have found you xxx
