My son has been with Sam when he was 18 months until he went to reception this year and we've been so sad not being able to have our "Sam's day"! Sam is an amazing and adorable person who will look after your child like if it was hers. My children loved to go with her. She's so creative, patient, careful and artistic! Every time there were new fun and educational activities for Tom. Sam planned lots of days out as well. And her Hygge environment is so friendly and educative too. I can't recommend her enough. I knew every time I left my son to Sam that he'll spend an amazing day, that he'll be safe and happy. Tom spoke his first English (we're French) with Sam and had lots of fun doing pre-school activities ;)
Sam is a rare gem I'm the educational system and you can leave your children with her eyes closed.

Our two children (2 and 4.5) have been going to Sam’s for just over a year and there aren’t enough positive things we can say. She plans amazing days for the kids combining education and fun, she looks after them as if they were her own. They love her (we only have to mention it’s a ‘Sam day’ to our youngest and she gets her shoes out and can’t wait to go). We are going to be very sad to not send the kids to Sam anymore as we are moving to another county, but we haven’t yet given up hope of persuading her to move too! Be in no doubt, if your children are minded by Sam they will have a very happy and educational time.

My 3 year old son has been attending childcare with Samantha since September 5 days a week after nursery in the afternoons. He has loved every moment and can't wait to go the following day. Samantha has been reliable and offers a great service where I have seen great progress in my son's special needs. The environment offers great opportunities for growth and development not only academically but socially too.
I would highly recommend her to everyone as a reliable, professional organisation who will go beyond 'the norm'.

My 3 year old son has been going to Samantha since September to be dropped off at nursery 3 times a week. He loves going in the mornings and is always telling me the things he’s got up to even in the short amount of time he is there. Couldn’t have asked for anyone better.

My son attends Samantha's childcare on iset days ect.... He suffered from a young age with stranger and separation anxiety but you would never think this when he's at Sam's.
Sam always promotes independence in a caring environment, my son has blossomed and now attends nursery with great confidence due to His experience here with Sam.

My daughter has been looked after by Sam for a while now and I can not be happier !! My daughter struggles with separation anxiety and doesn’t deal with new things well Sam has worked really hard with my daughter and the difference in her is amazing !! My daughter loves her time with Sam and all the amazing activities she does there would highly recommend Sam and will definitely use Sam in the future !!.

Sam looked after my 3 year old Tuesday mornings and dropped her to school the other 4 days.
My daughter doesn't settle easily with strangers but from the first visit she seemed very comfortable and settled very quickly into Sam's care.
Sam is a kind and caring childminder, she always notices the little things and takes extra care in ensuring the children are having fun and educated at the same time.
I cannot fault Sam's care and will go back to her if I am in need again
Highly recommended!

My son has to to Samantha one time and that one time he had all good to say about her. She observed things about him that no other childminder ever has. It’s almost like she has known him his whole life and knows how to relate to his needs. I would recommend Sam anytime to anyone. Great service wanting me to return.

We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a caring and attentive child-minder for our twin daughters. Samantha and her family have made them feel so welcome in their home over the past year. When we collect them our girls are always full of stories about the fun and exciting activities they have got up to that day - Samantha is full of great ideas as to how to make learning fun. As a Doctor my working hours can be quite unpredictable and Samantha has always been flexible and happy to help whenever she can. With twins it was important to us to have a child-minder who would recognise our girls as individuals and Samantha quickly identified the differing aspects of their personalities and knew how to bring out the best in each of our children. Our girls have become more confident, independent (and less fussy-eaters!) thanks to Samantha's involvement in their lives.
