My Experience
I have over 20 years of experience working in childcare and am Level 3 qualified. My experience includes working in nurseries, as a nanny and as a childminder, giving me a broad understanding of children's individual needs. As a mum of two children aged 4 and 8, I have the unique perspective of seeing things from both a parent's and childcare professional's point of view. I understand the importance of providing a warm, nurturing environment where children can learn, play and thrive. I have experience caring for children of all ages, including newborns, and have supported children with additional needs.

Our daughter Orla has been with Sarah for the past couple of years and she absolutely loves it. Sarah is kind, warm and nurturing, and always has the children doing interesting activities from baking and crafting to tasks that strengthen their motor skills and learning. She also takes them for fun days out to the farm, playgroups and soft play so they spend plenty of time both inside and outside the house.
Her own children are also so sweet with Orla and fun to be around, and the space they spend most of their day in is large, bright and inviting, and functions like a lovely space you'd expect in a nursery.
Orla has thrived in Sarah's care, her character feels really nurtured and embraced and I know we'll all be sad when the day comes that she has to leave to go off to big school!
I can't recommend Sarah enough, she's rated Outstanding by Ofsted for very good reason and will take such wonderful care of your little one.

My daughter has been with Sarah since September 2025 and she is thriving! Her speech and overall development has come along so well since starting. I get regular pictures and videos of what my daughter gets up to while she is there and as always she is having so much fun, always laughing and smiling. Sarah is always so helpful, her communication and response time with enquiries are amazing. I highly recommend Sarah and her services I will definitely use her again with my other children.
