My daughter has been cared for very attentively by Sarah. She keeps parents informed about their child’s sleep, food and activities and is really professional and organised. She takes the children on regular outings to playgroups, parks and activities such as Bounce and Rhyme, and my 15 month old clearly adores her. We have been very grateful for being able to leave our daughter for the first time in such caring hands.

Sarah is amazing person.My daughter loved spending time with her. Sarah looked after my daughter since she was 9 months old until She left for nursery at 3. Sarah is professional. They spend a lot of time outside, visited National Trust places, farms, parks or playgroups. When they stay at home Sarah always prepare a lot of activites, crafts, water play and other. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for childcare.

Our son has been going to Sarah two days a week since September 22 and he is absolutely thriving!
We couldn’t recommend Sarah more, she is attentive, kind, trusting and all round just such a wonderful person - I know when I drop my little boy off he is in such safe hands. I particularly love getting updates about his day via the app 🥰 Sarah takes him and the other children out to the park, playgroups, etc and I just think it’s great that they get out and see the world and meet other people.
As a first time mum I often feel like I’m winging it (aren’t we all?!) but I always feel like I can ask Sarah any question about parenting, she’s full of handy advice and tips 😊

Sarah, is a warm and genuine person who looks after the children in care excellently. Our daughter has been with Sarah since she was 10 months old and we have been so pleased with the diligent and outstanding care she has provided her. Having to go back to work full time meant we needed to find a suitable setting for our daughter earlier than planned and how lucky we were to find Sarah. She has put us at ease every step of the way. Her communication with parents is excellent. Our daughter had some wobbles settling in and Sarah handled it so well, she now happily walks through the door waving goodbye. Sarah's purpose built playroom is great and always looks like lots of fun has been had at pick up. Our daughter also attends so many activities with Sarah, from playgroups, to gym, to exciting adventures at castles! We can't recommend Sarah highly enough and we will be ever so sorry for our daughter to leave her when the time comes.

Sarah is a brilliant childminder. My son attended for two years from the age of one, and only left when covid restrictions meant he was not able to combine time with Sarah and pre school. He thrived with Sarah, who was able to combine activities like trips to the park and toddler groups with activities in the play room and garden. I would recommend her to anyone.

Sarah has provided childcare for my two children for over 4 years and I can’t think of a better place for them to thrive. Sarah provides a caring, fun, safe and reliable home from home. I have always trusted my children will have happy full days balancing their individual needs alongside my wishes. Sarah has been extremely flexible over the years, never once taking a single day off and always being extremely professional. My children have thrived in her care and have been supported to experience a range of different activities. Sarah had gone out of her way to attend music and forest school groups with the children to enrich their day. Having experienced other childcare providers myself both professionally and personally I would without doubt recommend Sarah.

Sarah is a wonderful child minder, very attentive and my son loves going there. We are sad that he will shortly be leaving to go to school but he has been with Sarah for a long time and is very happy there. I would recommend Sarah to anyone and wish our son could stay there. Sarah is go taking the children to playgroups, walks, park outings and my son always comes home happy and has come on leaps and bounds learning.

Sarah looked after my daughter for at least 18 months and was brilliant. Great with my daughter and my daughter loved her and was always happy to go. She misses Sarah and her family since we stopped needing a child minder. Great communication and very professional. I would definitely recommend to anyone.

When I was looking for a childminder I wanted a home-from-home environment with someone my son could really get to know. I found everything I wanted and more with Sarah. She has the most loving, supportive home and gives each child the individual attention they need. My 1 year old son absolutely loves going to her and always has the best time! She has supported his development both physically and socially and gives him a wide range of experiences. Sarah is a really lovely person and her home is stimulating, fun and happy, what more could you ask for!!

My daughter has been with Sarah since September 2013 and is loving every minute of being with her and her family. So much so that she tells me the night before which toys she would like to take with her and what she wants to wear to go Sarah's.
Whilst my daughter has been with Sarah she is now potty trained and this was at the age of two and she has learnt sign language which is helping with her speach and communication development.
As a teacher myself I would highly recommend Sarah as Childminder.
