Sophie has looked after all of my children (up to Y6) in before- and after-school care, and during school holidays for over a year now. They have always been happy to go to Sophie's home and often come home with stories of fun they have had and interesting craft projects! She works to hard make sure that all those in her care feel safe and get along happily together; for example Sophie and the children work together on 'house rules' so that everyone knows where the boundaries are.

I have always found Sophie to be a pleasant and kind person with a lovely, friendly manner. Her children are also happy and polite, which I take to be a positive reflection of her parenting skills. I have always been very happy to send my children to her, knowing that they will be well looked-after in a clean and safe environment. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sophie as a childminder.
