Sam was my first ever childminder for my son ages 18 months. Sam looked after him for one week and really was great about reassuring me about his wellbeing, as a nervous first time mum. She also gives great advice on sleeping, eating and his milestones.

Her home is very clean, comfortable and so many toys! My son immediately was playing and having a great time during a settling in day. I also felt Sam was the right person to have as my childminder as soon as I met her.

Sam took him out everyday and had some great outings, including the farm on his last day.

Sam sent me lovely photos throughout the day, to show he was well and happy. She also had very lovely family they were so welcoming and friendly.

I highly reccomend Sam. Especially if its your first time leaving your child.
