Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
8 June 2023
This early years setting provides a nurturing environment where children enjoy learning through exploration and real-world experiences. Warm relationships encourage engagement in planned activities, including allotment visits for hands-on learning. Communication skills are well-supported through constant interaction and basic sign language. Physical development and imagination are effectively promoted. While safeguarding arrangements are effective, there is room for improvement in professional development to further enhance teaching quality.

Fantastic childminder :)

5 stars

Sarah has been looking after my daughter Freya (18months old) for about 6 months now. I've always been a bit anxious about leaving Freya with anyone new as she is very very clingy, but I have had absolutely no problems/issues with this whilst Sarah has been looking after her. Freya goes to Sarah with ease (which then makes me feel at ease) and comes back full of beans with a smile from ear to ear :)
Communication with Sarah is excellent. Always replies straight away to any messages. She lets me know straight away if Freya isn't herself, running a temperature, etc etc..
Over all I'm 110% happy with the care that Freya is receiving from Sarah, and would very very highly recommend her!
