Samantha is a wonderful childminder. She is caring and very relaxed which made the transition from maternity leave to work so much easier for me. My daughter loves going to Samantha's house and gets excited everytime we get near to her house. Samantha makes her feel part of the family and I know she is loved and cared for like one of her own. Samantha will be flexible when she can. We are only leaving as we are moving out of the area and I just hope we can find someone as caring as Samantha.

Samantha has looked after my little girl and she’s been super amazing. She settled into the setting with ease. My little one attended lots of outings to the garden centre and playgroups, did lots of baking, art and craft just to name a few activities. Samantha is very accommodating and provided me with such piece of mind as a full time working mom. My little one enjoyed her time spend with Samantha and her family and to this day still asks if she’ll be going to Sam even though she’s moved on. I love the fact the Samantha uses daily dairies to keep parents informed of their little ones daily activities. I would definitely recommend Samantha. A super and amazing mom and childminder.

Sam Child-minded my little boy for a couple of years and I can honestly say she is amazing! She has a lovely nature and will go out of her way to accommodate. She has 3 lovely children who are also amazing with others that come into there home, I could not have asked for a nicer person to look after my child and to this day they still have a lovely relationship even though he has progressed on.

Sam has been looking after my 3 year old for 2 years now and she is nothing short of fantastic.
She is so calm, kind natured and caring, it is very clear that she loves children and looking after them.
She has 3 wonderful kids who are fantastic with my daughter too.
Sam is flexible and goes out of her way to help if she can.
My daughter and I really can’t thank her enough for all she does for us.
Anybody having Sam as their childminder is extremely lucky. You can rest assured that your little ones are in the very best hands and will love spending time with her.
