Sara is not only a fantastic childminder she has become a family friend. Any children in her care are lucky as they are given lots of opportunities to try different things, and celebrate lots of different events. Sara supported us through family changes and a world pandemic. She goes the extra mile and I would have no hesitation recommending her to anyone.

Our eldest daughter has been going to Sara's for 7 and a half years, and our youngest for a year now and the care she provides goes above and beyond any other childcare setting we have ever experience. Sara creates a home from home for the children so they are always excited to go to be in her care! Sara puts on activities for the children for all occasions which they thoroughly enjoy and talk about continuously after. The days out she does with the children are beyond our expectations and are both engaging, educational and enjoyable for children of all ages. We couldnt wish for a better person to look after our children and they have both thrived in her care. The caring nature she has towards every child individually is second to none, and she takes the time to learn every single childs likes and tailors activities towards these too! We will never be able to thank Sara enough for all she does for our children.

We have had the pleasure of Sara being our childminder for over 8 years now, with all three of our children joining her from around one years old. Sara is a fantastic childminder who offers excellent activities and experiences across all of the areas of learning. Her bungalow is set up brilliantly for the children and the environment she provides is stimulating, purposeful and extremely well resourced. It has a lovely homely feeling to it too, like a home from home for the children. All three of ours have thrived within the care of Sara, she knows them all as individuals and has had a big impact on their learning and development. Sara’s communication with parents is excellent, the learning stories she produces and writes in each time they attend are fantastic. They make such lovely keepsakes too of their time and progress there! Our older two have ‘graduated’ now, so only attend before and after school now, but they both have probably around 20 learning story books each which showcase their learning journey with Sara before joining school. They love looking back on their days with Sara and all the fun and adventures they enjoyed whilst learning so too. As a family we couldn’t praise Sara more, we are beyond grateful for all she has done and continues to do for our three and would recommend her without reservation to anyone looking for a childminder.
