About this home
About our tiney childminder
At my setting, I provide a creative space for children to thrive and learn. I have developed plenty of experience over 20 years and have a passion for the education and wellbeing of children. I am patient, caring and considerate of the needs of every child. My provision is full of warmth, love and laughter which helps children to feel a sense of belonging. I love how young children learn through play and they fascinate me with their inquisitive, creative and enquiring minds.

Lesharn and children
Sue, you are a very child-loving carer. I can see your ambition and joy working with kids and it shows through the relationship they have with you.
Paul
It was very noticeable how my child not only adapted to the environment but to Sue's energy - she didn't want to leave. As a whole I felt this was the best place for my child as I felt comfortable with Sue the moment I met her.

I have known Sue for over 12 years. My daughter who is 11 years old has been looked after by Sue since she was 15 months old. She has now grown into a happy and confident young lady. Sue is great with children, always having activities for them, playing/interacting with them, and going out. As a parent, I am completely confident in her care and knowledge, and she put me at ease with her kind, trustworthy and professional manner. I would very much recommend her to anyone looking for childcare.
Nora
Excellent childminder After a quick and efficient message exchange with Sue, She has immediately impressed me with her professionalism, so in February 2022, I decided to visit her home nursery with my 8 month old son. I have arrived to a lovely, clean and happy home. Children under her care looked happy and well cared for. I knew straight away, that, I would like her to look after my son. I was very anxious as a FTM returning to work with a baby, who was rather fussy and crying a lot at that time. However, Sue gave my son the best possible loving care, my fussy baby turned into a very happy, content, confident and funny toddler. He loves going to nursery now, without any issues. Also She's incredibly flexible, She drops off my child home if needed. I had the privilege to meet her lovely family, too. They are absolutely amazing and respectful to us. I have always got peace of mind knowing that my son is under the best possible care. If you are looking for an incredible, reliable, and extremely hard-working childminder, she is the one! I fully recommend Sue from the bottom of my heart. 😊
