I knew Sally from working at a local school, and despite not having any children when I first met her, I always knew when the day came Sally would be my ‘go-to’. Her warm and bubbly personality made her incredibly easy to get along with and we’d enjoy chats about our travels.

I had my daughted, Matilda, in lockdown and despite not having met many people/or other children in her lifetime she instantly warmed to Sally and the other children in Sally’s care.
I was put at ease immediately.

Sally and her daughter, Amber, provided a wholesome and engaging learning environment, from making trips to the allotment and showing the children basic gardening skills, to exploring various craft activities, including silk painting (a skill from Sally’s pre-childminding days). It was enriching and so enjoyable for Matilda.

Matilda’s character has been shaped and moulded by these two lovely ladies, I feel very privileged that she has had such wonderful humans as her early role models.

I consider Sally a friend now, and although Matilda has started school and I no longer use Sally’s childminding service, we still enjoy having our chats about our travels, and many other things!
If the time comes that I ever have another baby, there would be no hesitation in my mind which childminder I would be using.

The fives stars aren’t enough! Sally really is the best of the best!
