I could not recommend Sandra enough. My little girl has been attending Sandra’s since she was 9 months old, she has come on in leaps and bounds learning lots of new things each day. My daughter comes home with all sorts of different crafts things each day which she is eager to show me! She has now just turned 3 and can write her name!! Sandra has so much patience with the children and also caring with them too. My daughter loves going to Sandra’s and is so excited to go!!
