About Me
I have have 5 grown up children and 14 grandchildren and have been a childminder for over 30 yrs. I provide a happy safe, secure and creative environment with out door actives everyday. I have many friends who are childminders and we all get together to explore our world most days.
Our outdoor activities are all included in the fees. This includes many soft play sessions, playgroups and outings to Aldingbourne Country Farm, Staunton Farm, Amberley Museum and the Weald & Downland Museum.
I also arrange a special outing at the end of each term, e.g. Marwell Zoo, again within the fees.
We have recently had our Ofsted inspection and been awarded ‘good’ overall and ‘outstanding’ for professionalism, attitude and engagement.

To Sharon and the Team,
From the bottom of my heart, I want to say thank you for the wonderful care you have given to our child. With you, she truly found a second home—full of warmth, love, and learning.
You have cared for her not just with professionalism, but with the tenderness and patience of a mother. Every time I dropped her off, I did so with peace of mind, knowing she was in safe and loving hands. Your setting has always felt inclusive and nurturing, giving each child—regardless of background or ability—equal care and opportunities to grow.
It’s been a joy watching our child flourish under your care. The values, friendships, and memories she’s gained will stay with her forever. She will always miss you and the amazing team that made her early years so special.
Thank you for being such a beautiful part of her childhood. We will forever be grateful.
With love and heartfelt gratitude,
Christine.

Hi Christine,
It has been an absolute pleasure looking after your daughter in our childminding setting. Watching her grow and flourish everyday, making friends with our other children has been wonderful to watch.
They have been a great team and little family together.
We want to thank you for your fabulous review.
We really appreciate your kind words and thoughts.
We will miss her very much
We wish you and your daughter great happiness in your new adventures.
Dear Sharon,
I just wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt thank you for everything you do for Edna. Knowing she is in your loving and capable hands each day gives me such peace of mind. It truly means the world to me.
I can see how much Edna enjoys her time with you-from the fun activities to the little stories/rhymes she excitedly shares when she gets home. It’s clear she feels safe, happy, and loved, and that is everything a mother could ask for.
Your kindness, patience, and dedication don’t go unnoticed, and I feel so grateful to have you in our lives.
Thank you for being such a wonderful part of Edna’s world.
With love and appreciation,
Christine

Sharon is an excellent, professional and caring childminder as she's really kind and has provided a wonderful, safe and nurturing environment for my daughter and other children.She is everything I prayed for while I was searching for a childminder. Indeed she is a blessing in ourselves. Sharon has looked after my daughter way back when she was a baby. And It’s visible that my daughter is well looked after because many people give good compliments about my daughter’s behaviours. I must say that my daughter has gained a lot of skills and very confident in whatever she does. I highly recommend Sharon to be your childminder and you won’t regret. ABIG THANK YOU SHARON FOR YOUR HARD WORK TOWARD MY DAUGHTER.

Thank you Christine for your kinds words
It’s always a pleasure spending time with your daughter and I really appreciate your support
I have been using Sharon for a while now, she is so amazing and provides the best care for my daughters! I have notice a big change in my daughter’s confidence, and being more open to trying new things and exploring. She has also provided her with good academic skills and learning new things! She is the most amazing childminder and provides a very safe and caring environment for my daughters. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a childminder.
