Sian has been really brilliant with our little boy who will turn 2 in the summer. Our previous childminder unfortunately moved away from the area and she recommended Sian to us highly, as they used to work together and attended the playgroups together. For this reason we didn't hesitate to go with Sian which proved to be a great decision.

Our boy doesn't talk much yet, but we could see that he returned each day in a cheerful mood and obviously had a good time. Sian has great facilities including lots of space in the house as well as a garden area (which we don't have access to living in a flat) and she was very good checking things like sunscreen.

As I am working during the week I really appreciated Sian's reliability as there were almost no days a schedule needed to be changed and she gave lots of advance notice about things. It's an excellent location with easy parking and I was also able to cycle along dedicated cycle paths from Bushey to Carpender's Park which the boy enjoyed and was a safe way to deliver and pick him up.

I am sure our boy will miss being at Sian's, however we will be moving ourselves soon over the summer. We highly recommend Sian to anyone who is looking in this area.
