Wonderful childcare

My son has been looked after by Sarah and Paul one day a week since he was a baby, and three days a week since he was 11 months (he is now 20 months) and is positively thriving in their care.

I love the environment that Sarah and Paul have created. It is welcoming and friendly and they seem to know how to bring out the best in all of the different children.

Six children feels like the perfect number and the fact that they are a range of ages means that they seem to be constantly learning from each other. It is lovely to watch how they interact and their relationships develop.

The consistency of having the same two caregivers and same children being there every day makes it a secure and dependable place for the children to be. This dependability means that the children are able to encounter all of the different activities they participate in (and there are many), with confidence.

They seem to have struck the perfect balance between routine and predictability on the one hand, with new experiences, adventure, and taking the children out of their comfort zone, on the other.

Having the same children also means that Sarah and Paul really know the children well and can tailor things to suit their different personalities.

For my son their house is like 'a home from home'. This means that when he went there for an overnight stay he wasn't the least bit fazed.

Sarah and Paul clearly love what they do and have years of experience on which to draw. I would highly recommend them.
