I’m so pleased we found Sofia and James! From the moment we met them we felt like they were the perfect pair to look after our son Lockie. You can tell they’re amazing parents themselves and love what they do. Their space is perfectly equipped with lots of toys and educational decor, and Lockie loves the swing in the garden! They plan lovely activities with him too and I know he’s getting a really good amount of attention.
It’s hard having to leave him all day, but I feel he’s in really safe hands with Sofia and James.

I met with so many childminders before finding Sofia and James but no one was the right fit. When I first went to meet them, the way they interacted with my daughter and built a rapport with her so quickly put me at ease straight away and I knew they were the people I would trust with my child. I’m happy to say that I’ve never regretted that decision. They are professional, caring, flexible, and reliable. I couldn’t say enough good things about them!
The main thing to say is that my daughter thrived with them. Sofia and James understood her and cared about her as an individual and knew how to support her to develop and shine. I always felt they worked with us, and supported what we were trying to do at home, so she had consistency.
James and Fia have backgrounds in teaching and early years. This really comes across in the way they communicate with the children and understands their needs. They also put so much work into making their setting really tailored to young children, working on different themes and skills as appropriate to the children in their setting. They are clearly passionate about their work and it is more than ‘just a job’ to them.
Fia and James always prepared home cooked food so I knew that she was eating well when she was there which was important to me.
I really couldn’t recommend them enough and I’m so grateful for the way they took care of my daughter.

My son was with Fia and James for about 3 years and was very happy. I love the level of structure they brought to each day and themes for each term which featured in the activities they would do with the children.
It is a happy and inclusive setting and we were very grateful for Atti’s time with them.

I don’t know where we would’ve been these past few years without Sofia and James. Their support, kindness and knowledge and experience have been immeasurable. It brings such comfort and reassurance to know that Susie ☺ is being looked after and nurtured by two lovely people (parents themselves) who care for her educational, social and personal development.
You can tell the Sofia and James genuinely love their work. They are flexible and responsive and always willing to help us out if we have to switch hours around or ask for extra hours. Really helpful for two busy working parents juggling a lot.
I honestly can’t recommend them enough.
But most important of all, Susie loves her Childminders and that tells us everything.

My son and daughter has been with Sofia and James from a young age. They absolutely loved being looked after by them. They always happy and excited to be spending the day with them and loves seeing all Theirs friends there. Sofia and James have provided a very caring, supportive and fun home environment. Their communication has always been excellent, with both children and parents, the children have a wide variety of activities during the day including plenty of time outside, and the food they provide is very healthy and varied. I definitely be continuing with Sofia and James. I highly recommend Them for anyone looking for top quality, reliable, caring childminding

I genuinely don’t know where we would be without James and Fia. They started looking after our little boy 3 years ago when I went back to work and then subsequently, our 2nd son a year later. Now both boys are at school, but still go in the holidays. From day one, they were so kind and welcoming and understanding to our needs as a family. For us, a huge benefit is how flexible they are. Due to the nature of my shifts, the days are always changing, but they have always been accommodating and understanding. The boys absolutely love going to Fia and James and have learnt so much from them both and they somehow get them both eating everything put in front of them!!!
Thank you so much James and Fia.. we are forever grateful for what you have given our boys in their early years xx

Sofia and James are excellent childminders. They are caring, reliable, and always happy to help. They communicate clearly and give their very best to the children. Our little girl has been with them since she was 9 months old. She's now 3 and continues to be excited everytime she goes in to see Fia and James. When she comes home after a day with them she says things like 'I love Fia and James'.
We are really delighted with them and feel very blessed to have them in our community. We highly recommend them and cannot rate them enough.

Our boy has been with Sofia and James for a year now, since he was one. He absolutely loves his time with them both, and loves playing with the friends he has made.
I cannot rate Sofia and James highly enough - they helped our son settle in the early days, they provide him with a creative learning environment, feed him healthy homemade food, and take him on trips with his friends to local activities on a regular basis.
Sofia and James provide regular updates on activities and development, and are flexible and willing to help with any particular things that we're working on at home (e.g. colours or counting). I occasionally have to change my working days, and Sofia and James have been more than willing to switch around childcare days when they have availability. I couldn't ask for more from childminders, thank you both!

I have found Sofia through this website and I could not recommende s better person to take care of my 13 (now) old years son.
I have been using sofia.s services for 4 years now during the day (after school. School holidays) and also when I need some time to go out. She is attentive, sweet, supportive and very responsible. My son loves going there :)

I would highly recommend Sofia to any parent who is hesitant in leaving their child with a minder- as Sofia quickly reassures you with her bubbly, confident and caring nature. She has become such a valued part of my daughters development, helping with feeding, potty training, speech and learning through lots of play (my daughter is always coming home with crafts she has made!). Sofia has been incredibly reliable, honest, and I can't praise and thank her enough. Rest assured that your child will grow and develop key skills, in Sofia's care Thank you :-)
