Sally looks after both my children - my 4 year old daughter and 20 month old son. She picks up and drops off my eldest at school.

From the moment we met her, Micheal, Sophie and the rest of the family, we have been put at ease.

Sally has a kind, trustworthy, professional manner. She really is fantastic!

Our children really enjoy their time at Sally’s. They especially enjoy playing with the incredible array of toys and soft play, Sally has at the back of her home. She has turned her home into an oasis of play and sun for young kids.

Sally really cares about the children’s well-being too. She (pre-Covid) took the kids out regularly for planned activities and for outdoor play; gives the kids a hot, filling and healthy meal everyday, and keeps us up to date throughout with what the children are doing or if there are any updates.

Sally has been so thoughtful in acknowledging special days like birthdays and holidays for us (my daughter just turned 4 and got a cake, candle, card and present).

Sally has also been flexible and able to accommodate my eldest for days during school holidays and unexpectedly after I had a bad accident and surgery and was unable walk.

I visited more than 10 local childcare settings before finding Sally. We had just moved to Kingston and had come from another great childminder. I was looking for a loving, home away from home setting and Sally fit the bill. Sally’s ability to interact and care for children has greatly impressed me and I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending her to any family seeking childcare.
