There aren’t enough words to properly describe how amazing Sophie has been as our childminder over the past 9 months.

From the very beginning, she has been warm, kind, and genuinely caring, and we have always felt completely confident leaving our son in her care. She creates such a nurturing and happy environment, and it is clear how much she truly cares for the children she looks after.

Sophie does so many varied and engaging activities with them, always keeping things fun, stimulating, and age-appropriate. We have been especially impressed with how much she has helped our son develop his understanding of colours and numbers during his time with her. It has been wonderful to see his confidence grow.

She also provides consistently lovely, nutritious, and tasty meals, which he always enjoys.

We are only saying goodbye because we are relocating to the US; otherwise, we would have loved for our son to stay with her much longer. We feel very lucky to have had her as part of his early years, and we cannot recommend her highly enough to any family looking for exceptional childcare.
