I have a good relationship with the parents ensuring they are fully informed of their child's achievements and daily activities, as well as keeping in line with parents' wishes and feelings. All regulatory documentation is well recorded. I provide stimulating play activities, nutritious snacks and meals.

I have a fully enclosed garden available for outside play which has slide, trampoline, sand pit and various other toys.

My daughter has been with Sarah for almost two years now, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she receives.
Sarah provides such a nurturing, friendly and welcoming home environment where my daughter is always happy, settled and loved.
As a parent, knowing that your child is safe, happy and genuinely cared for is everything, and Sarah gives us that peace of mind every single day. I drop my daughter off each morning knowing she is going to be well looked after, surrounded by warmth, kindness and love.
We are so grateful to have found Sarah and feel incredibly lucky that my little girl has had such a wonderful person to care for her. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any family looking for a caring, trustworthy and loving childminder.
