Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
8 January 2020
A nurturing environment and diverse learning experiences characterize this childcare setting. The childminder provides a calm and supportive atmosphere, helping children express themselves successfully. Regular visits to local amenities enrich children's understanding of the world. Strong safeguarding practices and good-quality teaching support children's development. While communication with parents is effective, language use with younger children during activities like storytelling could be improved.

From Ms Sharon to Aunty...

5 stars

Sharon is very professional and friendly. She became Aunty Sharon to us due to her great care of our daughter who went from crying at drop off to not wanting to be picked up from her.
She was also very helpful with giving us (new parents), vital advise for raising and caring for out child. She also maintains a very proactive approach with the kids with very regular days out and activities.
I would say you would be lucky to have her mind your child.

Wonderful childcare you can trust

5 stars

Our little girl was looked after by Sharon from a relatively young age of 8 months old, and I couldn’t have been happier or have greater peace of mind with the level of care she received. She’s helped develop our daughter into a happy, confident and sociable 20 month old. Sharon takes meticulous care over all the children she minds and she became like a family member for our little girl. Really recommend!

Thank you so much we miss you all very much x

Wonderful childminder

5 stars

Sharon is a wonderful childminder and my little boy loves her setting, and my mind is fully at ease when he is with Sharon. Sharons setting is very impressive with plenty of space and centres around the children she cares for. My little boy attended a private nursery before school and I wish we had found Sharon sooner as I know he would of been better suited Sharons setting, he has come on lots since being with Sharon and in her setting.

Wonderful cildminder

5 stars

Sharon is the best child minder I've used for my children. My mind is fully at rest when my children are in her care. She provides professional but friendly care and her family are very welcoming. As well as great care both my children have also improved academically and also grown in confidence. I would highly recommended Sharon to anyone looking for a child minder.
