We chose Andy and Sarah as our childminders after visiting their home and feeling as though our daughter would be welcomed as part of their family. A specific appeal was that Andy and Sarah are a couple with their own grown up children. It is important to us for our daughter to see both males and females as caregivers, and so we felt it was very special and quite unusual to find Andy and Sarah.
Our daughter has been with them since 13 months. She settled well, because Sarah and Andy took the time to respect our routine and requests for her care. We have since had another daughter and have already made arrangements for her to start with Andy and Sarah after having such a positive experience.
Andy and Sarah are always in regular contact and are very approachable, flexible, kind, fair, trustworthy and, importantly, very fun!
