Sarah first came to babysit for my children when my daughter (then 3) was going through a stage where she didn't want to be left. Sarah immediately put her at ease and after her first visit my daughter was asking when Sarah would be back!! She even has a special book she will only read with Sarah! Sarah has also put the kids to bed when needed. Sarah has been babysitting for us for a couple of years now, I highly recommend her.

I have had my two children now 5 and 7 looked after by Sarah for 2 years and it is with sadness that we're having to change as the school situation will change in September. I would recommend Sarah to anybody looking for someone caring and trustworthy to look after your little ones. Our children will definitely miss her!

We needed childcare when our son was less than a year old and Sarah was a fantastic help. Consistent, timely and he loved her. He always came back healthy, happy and well rested. A big thanks to Sarah for all her help
