Samantha childminder's Reviews

Highly reccomend

Samantha was very reliable, and had terrific communication which gave us assurance in working with her. She would go above and beyond in assisting mum and baby and took the time out of her day to show mum local mum and baby activities. She was great with baby too, it was nice for mum to come back to paint-work that Sam had done with fourth month old at the time.

We would work with Samantha again without hesitation and highly recommend her to all parents.

Thank you Sam for all your work and time !

Brilliant - my son loves her.

Sam is brilliant; my son very quickly took to her (he doesn't like everyone!) and leans to her for cuddles when I drop him off. After only a few weeks he was desperate to be off playing with her and the other kids within minutes of arriving! My son has come on leaps on and bounds with his development and is very, very happy there. I'd be happy to recommend Sam to anyone.

very happy

My little one has been with Sam for 3 months and we are thoroughly impressed with the care she is providing. We have a folder of his progress and daily activities including a log of his food etc. that we take home each day to read. So far he's been swimming, water and farm park, rain walks and picnic at the park. Sam also teaches seasonal events from around the world and different cultures.

Sam works with her husband Steven and assistant Nat which I like as that means there's always an adults eyes to watch the little ones no matter who's doing what. The extra adult(s) also means Sam can look after more children which drew me to her as we were wanting our little one bringing on more and we know being around other children will do that. Her two kids are very friendly and playful with Robert so when other children have left for the day he always has someone to play with.

Her home is very child friendly and full of toys, posters and drawings which I like. Her garden is split into four sections a patio, large lawn area, allotment and chicken coop. She does plenty of activities throughout the day and uploads photos for us to see what he gets up to. Robert comes home every day tired out from all the play and activities.

We plan on using Sam for the foreseeable future and would highly recommend her.

Thank you. We love having your little boy and we really appreciate the lovely review.

Highly recommended!

We dropped our little 5 month old at Samantha’s home and were extremely pleased by the way she took care of her.
The home was clean, full of toys and the atmosphere was welcoming.
Samantha has all the qualifications needed for childcare, including the paediatric life support course for the rare eventuality.
Her husband is also a chef, so no worries about the quality of the food offered.

After picking up our daughter, we were even given to our surprise and delight a sort of progress chart with clearly marked activities.
I wholeheartedly recommend Samantha, who would look after your loved one(s) with the utmost care and affection.

Thank you. Your little girl was a treasure and we loved every minute of caring for her

Would Recommend Without Hesitation

Sam has been looking after my 14 month old little boy for the last month and I am so lucky we found her. Zayn seems to be really happy, Sam picks him up from nursery, gives him dinner and he plays with her daughter and son while waiting for me to collect him. He has really come on - trying to feed himself on his own and he chats away to himself and Sam has been brilliant at encouraging him. Out of the people I interviewed to look after my little boy, Sam was by far the most approachable when it came to asking questions, about how my son would be looked after and showing us around her home. She is great at maintaining our routine and I would be happy to answer any questions a parent might have, please feel free to ask Sam for my number to call me. Kayt Huggett
