Sasha
Childminder in Hassocks
My Summary
About Me
I have a 21 year old son. 10 years child minding. In my own time I like to run over the South Downs, play the guitar, draw portraits, jigsaws and love outdoor life.
My Experience
10 years of experience. I believe routine, love and fun are the most important things.
I take children to Washbrook Farm for fun. Parks, nature reserves.
At home we read stories, painting, playing, musical instruments at home.
I send parents photos and updates during the day.
I love looking after the children. It is a wonderful bonding experience. It is lovely to see their faces glow with joy, laughter and watch them develop along their path with me. They develop strong bonds with the other children in my setting.

We have been with Sasha since 2018, and she has cared for all three of our children. They have all been incredibly happy with her, both in full-day care and before and after-school care.
Sasha provides a warm, caring, and nurturing environment where the children feel safe, supported, and have so much fun. She plans a fantastic variety of activities, including crafts, music, trips to Washbrooks Farm, walks in the woods, visits to Ditchling Common, and lots of different play parks.
Our youngest starts school this September, but will continue with Sasha for before and after-school care because we know she'll be in the best hands.
We are so grateful for everything Sasha has done for our family over the years and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful childminder.

Both of my children went to Sasha from 1 year old and have thrived in her warm and loving setting.
She’s a brilliant childminder, the children respect her and enjoy their time with her. She often takes them out on trips to Washbrooks farm or Ditchling common and I love how much time they spend outside in nature.
Sasha does a lot of creative activities with them too, drawing, painting etc and they love playing with all the musical instruments.
Sasha’s home is a safe and nurturing setting that feels like a home away from home for the kids.
Sasha now also drops off and collects my eldest son from school once a week which is really useful as a working parent. At 6 years old he still loves his time with Sasha.
We are all so pleased to have found Sasha I would recommend her to anyone who wants a nurturing setting that encourages independence and being in nature!
