About Me
Sassi's Scalliwags webpage will enable you to see some of the memories we are making, have a look and let us know if you'd like to join in by messaging or calling.
I have three children, aged 28, 27 and 24, 3 grandchildren and my husband, Neil. Also 4 adorable dogs who love everyone.
Our home is warm and welcoming to new and old families who visit.
I began childminding to be at home raising my children, but have had immense joy caring for other children at the same time, extending our family unit.
While adhering to the regulations set by Ofsted and following Early Years Development Areas, we have fun making memories. Doing crafts, exploring our world around us and building relationships. Photos can be seen on our website Sassi's Scalliwags.
Neil, my husband works within my setting as my assistant and has his first aid training, dbs and is an asset to our setting.
He is registered with Ofsted.
I provide term time only and full year contracts, funded places with a minimum 2 day attendance.

A while of weeks ago our regular childminder was faced with a very sudden emergency, which directly affected her ability to provide child care services for a short, but undefined period. As we are both working parents and haven't got any family here, we had to find a temporary child care for our baby within a matter of two days. I phoned many local childminders, most of them had no vacancies for such a young child (under 1), some of them were not interested due to the 'temporary' aspect of the contract. And then I've found Sarah, who was happy to offer our son a place on weekly basis until he could get back to his childminder. Our son enjoyed his time at Sarah's very much, he had good naps, ate all his food and every day he seemed happy and rested when I picked him up. I would highly recommend Sarah to anyone who is looking for a good childminder in the Lansfield or Woodcross area.

My son really enjoy's his time with Sarah. Sarah allows the children to be creative and they are able to express themselves. My son loved Sarah's husband Neil as he builds a good relationship with the children.
