Ella started going to Sarah's when she was 11mo, she is now 2yo and I can't recommend Sarah's Play Days enough.

Sarah not only looks after children in her care, she encourages development (physical, emotional and intellectual) and constantly teaches them through play - which is 100% inline with my approach.

The kids are singing, dancing, listening to stories, visiting various places, climbing, jumping, drawing, painting and playing with amazing choice of toys (all very clean and in working condition). They are also getting involved in baking, gardening and whatever Sarah has planned for them each week.

The setting includes two spacious rooms within the house (with an access to separate art corner) and beautiful garden with beach house, climbing frame, mud kitchen, maze and many more. Sarah really looks after the place and makes sure that there is a great variety of equipment constantly investing in more and more pieces.

Home made meals are well balanced and look amazing - we get to see the meals and also what children were up to during the day on photos Sarah and Frances publish on BabyDays App and Facebook group. We also get a Daily Note summarising activities and achievements of the day.

What's also important to me, having my family so far way, is the fact that I can always ask Sarah a question and seek her advice - it my be toddler related, but not necessarily.

I had an opportunity to spend some time with Sarah and the children and I was very impressed with the way children speak to each other, play and just look after one and another.

When I leave my daughter in the morning with Sarah and Frances I know she is in good hands and I can focus on my day at work - and that's just a blessing.
