My daughter was 13 months old when she started with Sue (was meant to be when she was younger but was postponed due to lockdown). I visited Sue when my daughter was 5 months old and had an initial meeting. I instantly felt at home and immediately warmed to her and the setting. Sue was warm and friendly, and the room was colourful with lots of toys and resources. I snapped Sue up immediately and looked forward to my daughter starting.

She has a great time at Sue's. It really is a home from home, and that's what I love about it. I get daily updates and can text Sue any time night or day and she'll be there to reply. My daughter feels at home there and loves the rest of her family too, as well as the animals! She loves all the activities that Sue does with her - colouring, painting, drawing, baking - as well as playing in her large garden with the multiple play activities and mud kitchen. I really feel comfortable and confident leaving my daughter in Sue's care while back at work.

Sue also provides nutritious meals and snacks which my daughter loves. The toys and playroom are deep cleaned regularly to ensure high levels of hygiene and cleanliness.

Unfortunately we have moved to a new area, which means my daughter will be leaving Sue's excellent childcare setting shortly which we're heartbroken about. I will miss Sue and her family as much as my daughter will. I know I won't find anyone so friendly, amazing and easy to talk to to look after my daughter. If I could, I'd bring her with me! I'm sure she'll be hearing from me for tips and guidance along the way!

Anyone thinking of Sue to mind their children should have absolutely no hesitation, your children would be so lucky!
