All seems tranquil as newly qualified Health Visitor Sarah motors into a small Kentish hilltop village in her new green mini. Sheâs barely out of the car when sheâs called to assist the midwife with a bride whoâs gone into labour in the middle of her own wedding reception. And so her adventures beginâŚ
As a health visitor Nurse Sarah is as green as grass but she puts her best foot into wellies and braves the mad dogs, killer ganders and muddy tracks of the farming community. Despite set-backs young Sarah is determined to help the mums she meets, from struggling young mothers in unmodernised farmhouses, to doyennes of the county dinner party set who slave over stuffed olive hors-d'oeuvres.
Village life in 1970s isnât always quite the Good Life Sarahâs been expecting; her attempts at self-sufficiency and cider making lead to drunk badgers and spirited house parties â but will it be the clergyman, the vet or the young doctor that win Sarahâs heart. During her first year in Kent, Nurse Sarah Hill get stuck in â reuniting families and helping mums in the midst of community full of ancient feuds, funny little ways and just a bit of magic.
