Sara and her team are wonderful. I highly recommend them. My little girl adores seeing them all, and she is so happy and content when I pick her up. Sara, over the months has offered me lots of useful tips and words of reassurance on development ( i am a first time Mum and my husband works abroad, so on my own a lot!). I get loads of lovely updates and they are very patient with my constant and largely unnecessary text asking if she is ok! Sara offers a loving home and loads of fun. I feel very at ease on drop off and my daughter adores seeing Sara. They are fab!!

My two children aged 3 and 18months have been cared for by Sara for the last 8 months. We find that Sara's broad experience of caring for children of different ages and needs enable her to provide the perfect balance between structured learning and a home environment. Both children settled very quickly and very much look forward to their time spent with Sara. Great flexibility is offered to suit our working patterns which is great. Sara's husband Simon is also registered to help with the children, this is great as it means the older children don't miss out on trips out and about while younger children might stay at home to nap. The kids are always taken to local groups and trips out which gives them a really varied experience. We love the level of detail we get with regards to what the children have been doing/learning. Sara provides diary sheets of what they have done/eaten/slept/behaved etc and there are photos of their art work, trips out and just playing in the house.
We recommend Sara very highly if you are looking for a childminder that provides a wonderful learning environment with all the love and care of a home from home.
