Sam is truly an exceptional childminder. Her setting is nurturing and really encourages creative and outdoor play, and she offers a variety of nutritious meals. Unfortunately for me, her setting was always completely full (with good reason) when I needed full-time childcare, but I was lucky enough to get a spot for her to collect my daughter after school as she settled into reception. Sam has a very gentle style, and settling in was a breeze. It was a great comfort knowing my daughter would be going to Sam's 'home away from home' and she made some great friends there. She also convinced my completely 'beige' diet child to try some fruit, veg, and curry that she would never eat with me, so I was very impressed! Sam's communication was excellent and thoughtful - setting up a group chat with me and my husband so we could both be in the loop. She's very organised! I also know others who have used her setting for years and speak so highly of her. I can't recommend her highly enough.
