Fabulous childminder and great service to parents

Reviewed

Our daughter has been in Sami's care for just under a year. Sami's been great from the beginning and has made the settling in as easy as possible for both our daughter and us. She is passionate about looking after children, her environment is a safe and fun place to be with always new toys and activities, including social and informative ones that follow the EYFS guidance. Sami has got a large living room with a great range of toys as well as a lovely and sunny garden with outdoor toys, and even a paddling pool in the summer, which our daughter loved. She also takes them on walks to local NT parks, trips to town, and even music and gymnastics classes which is fantastic and almost a nanny service!

Sami writes a blog narrating what the children have been up to and including loads of great pictures just proving how happy they are. Our daughter has very well developped and gain self confidence whilst being looked after by Sami, and really seems to appreciate the home from home environment. Children within Sami's care have developped good sharing habits, care and respect for each other.

As parents, we really appreciated the trusting relationship we had with Sami, her sense of initiatives, and flexibility when we have needed earlier drop offs or late pick ups. Our daughter and us also got to know Sami's lovely family who have warmly welcomed us.

We feel very lucky to have found Sami and regret having to change childcare arrangements. She really is great for both children and parents, genuinely cares about the children she looks after and always keeps them entertained, happy and safe and we would strongly recommend her to other parents.
