I would not recommend this childminder due to the fact, that my nephew was visably distressed and upset whenever we picked him up or brought him home.
When walking by the street, he would get upset and say "Not Sarah's" & we would have to reassure him many of times that he would not be going that day.
When he was home, he would comment that Sarah was 'naughty' & shouted 'BED'. This caused my nephew problems for my sister to settle him at night times because of his experience within this childminders setting.
There was constant times where the childminder would send him home, saying he is 'not well' or 'poorly' and referring it to as he got 'man flu' when he is only 2 years old.
Also my sister had a message of Sarah within half an hour of my nephew being dropped off with a threatening message saying 'You need to pick you're son up or I'm ringing social services'.
My sister how now had to pull my nephew away from this situation with immediate effect because of the consequences around her son.

What a shame you feel this way after I took care of your nephew for nearly 2 years I wish him all the best for his future.
Children cannot attend my setting if they are poorly as I have a duty of care to them and other children in my setting.
I would only contact Social services if I had safeguarding concerns and this is not the platform to discuss this.
