Our son (now 2) has been with Sacha for nearly a year and a half and we’ve been beyond happy. Sacha is passionate about what she does and truly loves the children. She takes them out for fun activities (the farm, play groups, rhyme time, the park, the clock club, even the zoo!) every day and supports them both emotionally and in their cognitive and physical development. Our son LOVES Sacha and is always saying her name, even when he’s not with her. We're devastated to be moving and leaving her setting. Highly recommend!

Both my kids have now spent their early years with Sacha and I feel so lucky! Sacha is incredibly dedicated and takes pride doing the right thing by the kids in her care. She is fully focused on the kids at all times (not looking at a phone like some childminders I'm afraid to say!)
She has supported us as parents as well as our kids development.
Sacha has brought so much fun to our kids lives; as well as setting them up for forest school and now school. I miss her in our daily lives now!

My daughter went to Sasha when she was 9 months to just over 2yrs old and I couldn’t have coped without her! I was nervous and anxious and she immediately put us at ease with her nurturing, kind and professional way of working. My daughter has thrived and grown in her care as she was excellently cared for

Overall
Our little boy started with Sacha when he was 16 months, until 3yrs. She helped us to feel at ease about leaving him. He settled in straight away, we think due to Sacha taking the time to understand us and our sons needs before he started. My son has thrived since being with Sacha, from the variety of activities and experiences she plans. Including local stay and plays, the park for forest play, outings to the city farm and the zoo, trips to the library, the market and trips on the train! Helping him have a good understanding of the world around him. There's just no time to get bored!
Sacha provides such a friendly and caring setting, with lots of educational activities and age appropriate activities/toys.
We were lucky to find Sacha when we did. Aside from childcare, she has advised us on other issues as well like sleep, and behavioural matters.
Our son has loved being "at Sacha house" and will miss her so much.

My daughter started with Sacha when she was 10 months old. I was initially nervous to leave her but Sacha in incredibly friendly and my daughter loves her from the start. Sacha took the settling period very seriously and helped my daughter (and I!) adjust to being left full time; starting with us hanging out together at her setting. Sacha is professional and offers great advice as my daughter has progressed through different phases (help with weaning, sleep etc). My daughter loves seeing Sacha and her friends everyday and I can see huge growth in her development since being with Sacha. I know she is not only cared for with her physical needs, but hugely supported in her emotional needs aswell. I couldn’t be more pleased to have found Sacha :)
