Sarah

Wonderful childminders

My son was 10 months old when he started full time hours with Sarah and Beth and he settled straight away with them and he looked forward to being dropped off each morning and used to be desperate to stay when he was collected.Sarah was always incredibly flexible,would have my son for additional hours and sometimes at short notice and she would use an app to keep us updated to his naps etc.
My son had a good routine and used to eat very well with Sarah, he came on in leaps and bounds with his social development and language skills.Sarah would always try to get the children outside in the good weather whether it was the park or the garden which my son loved.We had a change of circumstances and moved out of the area and it was such a sad day when my son went for his last day with Sarah and Beth 😢 I could not recommend them both highly enough!

Amazing!!!!!

Sarah is amazing with my son. 5 stars is not enough! I would 100% recommend Sarah and her daughter, Beth. They are very flexible and accomodating especially if you have a busy work schedule. My son enjoys attending the childcare setting. He looks forward to playing with other children there and he is always delighted to see Sarah every week. I have recommended Sarah to other family and friends and I will continue to sing her praises as she has been amazing in looking after my son whilst I attend full time work. My son has learnt a lot whilst attending this setting and I can really see a massive improvement in his learning and development. He is much more vocal and singing different songs, he can count numbers up to 20 and knows the letters of the alphabet alongside colours (for reference he is 3).
Sarah will put your mind at rest and your child will enjoy being in her company. The flexibility of hours she offers is incredible for working parents.
Thank you Sarah for being a part of my sons journey :)

Couldn’t recommend Sarah enough ❤️

Sarah has been my sons childminder for around a year and a half now and I must say he absolutely loves her! He’s not long turned 3 and is always so thrilled when I tell him he’s going to Sarah’s house. The love he has for Sarah and the love Sarah has for each and every one of the children in her care is amazing and she treats them ALL as if they were her own children! My sons communication has come on leaps and bounds since being in Sarah’s care what has helped this is that fact that Sarah looks after many children of all different ages, from babies to school children which has been great for my sons development. She’s also so very helpful and accommodating and will always try her hardest to work around her children’s families needs, she will often also have a space for my daughter who’s 8 during the school holidays who also loves being in her care. We are so great full to have such an amazing childminder who my son treats and loves just like his own family. Thank you Sarah for everything! We 10000000% would recommend you to anyone!

Apologise but not recommend

My son when attending was 3 years old.He did not spend with Sarah too long time, maybe around 3-4 weeks all together.Sarah has said me she will have to terminate him, as he is very naughty and pushing other kids, but there was no chance from her side to help us deal with this problem.In my opinion, teacher should be able to help, especially when we did not noticed this problem before.My son was going to nursery in my old area before and he is going also to different nursery now. In new place he is around 7 weeks and no one complaint about his behavior. Ladies said many times he is very energetic and has a moods, but he is only baby, learning everything.Unfortunately, we do not recommend.

Amazing childminder

We have used Sarah for 4 years for our 30 hours childcare.

Amazing Childminders are hard to find and we were blessed to find Sarah. It's home from home for my two toddlers and they are part of the whole family. Even Sarah's parents are known as Nan and grandad. They absolutely love going and look forward to there days there.

Sarah has been so flexible with us and helped us out at short notice when needed and her ratios allowed. When I went into labour with my son she even offered to collect my older children for me. She provides excellent care and support for myself and my children. My 2 year old has suspected Austim and Sarah has been so helpful and supportive giving advice and finding help for us.

She has been accommodating to my childrens needs and dislikes. She has an amazing range of toys and garden toys for them. She has a lovely home and her husband and older children and brilliant with my children. My daughter loves it when her husband finishes work early and she gets to play with him. They do many activities and days out when there.

Also what I like is the communication If I'm worried or anxious about how the day is going I can message and sarah will send pictures and updates. I also get photos weekly of what they have been doing.

If I ever need childcare in the future I wouldn't hesitate to use Sarah again

My little boy felt like part of the family.

We was very impressed with the wrap around care Sarah was able to offer us, and loved the family and home setting she offers.

Sarah was very accommodating and flexible to our needs, unfortunately our circumstances changed (2020!) but Sarah would be the first person I would contact if we needed childcare again.

My son adores Sarah and his face always lights up when he sees her on the school run, we feel we have gained a genuine and caring friend as well as a childminder.

Amazing childminder

She took great care of my baby girl when she was just 4months old. Her pick up and drop off service was very helpful. She’s a lovely genuine person. I would definitely recommend her to all moms out there.

A lovely caring professional

Sarah looked after my son for a year before he progressed into school nursery. She is extremely friendly and caring. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a childminder.
