Sarah Wi

Outstanding Childminder

Our little girl has been with Sarah almost 2 years now and she absolutely loves going there. First of all, the communication is outstanding. All parents are given ‘home link books’ where you will find an overview of your child’s day, so you never get to worry that you won’t know if your child had a nap or ate lunch. All health concerns are flagged immediately via a phone. Sarah also prepares very detailed developmental reports for children. For example, we found it useful when our little girl had a review with a health visitor as we were given Sarah’s notes along with pictures. The health visitor was very impressed and it was reassuring to know that our observations as parents match Sarah’s. Secondly, you will find evidence of continuous development as Sarah does a lot of online trainings and that proves that she really wants to be the best at her job. Third, every day is different for the kids as they do so much there – arts & crafts, baking, fancy dress, water painting etc. Every activity teaches the kids something. For example, the kids would build towers out of Lego Duplo blocks but at the same time they would also recognise the colours and name them. Sarah also provides a lot of healthy snacks for the kids – plenty of fruits and vegetables. There is this lovely family atmosphere in Sarah’s house and you can really feel it. Oh, I almost forgot! Sarah has a dog named Milo and the kids adore him. He is very friendly and loves kids. Finally, Sarah has been granted an ‘outstanding’ rating from Ofsted and I can definitely see where that came from as she very dedicated and hard-working.

Everything we hoped for

As new parents, stepping into the world of childcare was quite daunting, but after some searching we found Sarah and everything has been easy ever since. Our little boy started in September 2021 and he truly loves being with her. After our most recent holiday, the excitement he showed to be going back was lovely to see. The best thing is, we feel like the feeling is reciprocated. We can see Sarah makes the children part of her home and her heart, and how our little boy is growing and learning every day. We can see that there is a clear plan and are often surprised with what he is learning at such a young age, whether it be crafts, new words he comes out with or even baking skills all before he’s 2! At first I missed our son every time I left him and was worried he would miss us too. Now when I drop him off, he stands at the door waving and I know he’s going to have a good day, that he’s happy and safe and that I have nothing to worry about. We are so glad to have found you, thank you so much.

Sarah is absolutely amazing!

Sarah has been looking after my little girl since August 2020 and she has been absolutely wonderful. She is very caring, always smiling and very creative. I remember when I was looking for a childminder I came across her profile and there was a review titled 'Mummy away from my Mummy' and this is what initially made me contact her. It's so true! I know that my daughter is in good hands while I'm at work. I also feel excited for my daughter when she goes there because I know she will have fun. The communication with parents is also outstanding. I also love the fact that children play outside when the weather is nice and the garden has so many toys for children to explore (there was even a bouncy castle in the summer and sledge in the winter). Sarah loves doing arts and crafts with children and we received so many wonderful keepsakes, especially over Christmas. I would recommend 100%!

Mummy away from mummy

My son started with Sarah when I returned to work after maternity leave in 2016, he was about 8 months old at this time. When looking for childcare, I think you are looking for a gut feeling about a person and I had that feeling immediately with Sarah and was lucky enough to secure a place. My main concern was that I wanted my son to be in a home environment where he could have a ‘Mummy away from Mummy’ and he has such a wonderful relationship with Sarah that this is definitely the case.
The care, love and development opportunities that he receives from Sarah are wonderful. She is also very creative with the children she cares for and that works out brilliant for my little artist in the making.
Whenever there is a problem of any kind, Sarah will speak to me about it at the first opportunity- communication is outstanding.
Also, she has taught my son a special way to put his coat on that impresses everyone that witnesses it! Aside from that, he is developing and learning brilliantly with the support and care of Sarah.
