My Experience
my first experience of working with children was as a volunteer for SCOPE, i spent two summers helping on play schemes and after that became a carer on the "give mum a break" scheme in Bradford, this again was as a volunteer working with families who had children with additional needs. I then went on to work in schools as a support worker for children with additional needs.
Then i became a mum a job that i have been doing now for 23 years, during this time i worked for the NHS dental service a job that i left 13 years ago when my youngest daughter was born.
I have been working as a childminder ever since.

I have a lot of anxiety leaving my children but meeting Janie and seeing how she was with my daughter I felt as ease and happy. Since then I haven’t once been disappointed or concerned, my daughter LOVES her and she’s so happy when she’s had we call it “janie school”
From what my daughter eats, to the specific care she needs during the day Janie provides.
Also to add my daughter is beyond her milestones, the care is second to none!!!
We couldn’t be happier. Thank you Janie, your a blessing.

thank you for your lovely review, your little lady is an absolute pleasure to care for.
My 3 year old has been going to janie full time since she was 6 months old, and she absolutely loves every second. Janie treats all the children as her own, like they’re all a part of her family. My daughter is very forward educational wise, and extremely confident, and janie has definitely contributed to that massively. Janie is very trustworthy and I couldn’t choose a better person to look after my daughter xx

Thanks for your lovely review, your daughter is an absolute pleasure to care for xx
Janie has taken care of all three of my girls for the past 6 years. I knew as soon as we walked in on our first visit and my girls felt at ease that Janie was a great choice to take care of my girls whilst I was at work. Janie has years of experience with childminding but also from raising three brilliant children of her own. Dropping the kids off in the morning felt more like leaving them with Auntie for the day rather than just a childminding service, she loves and takes care of the kids like her own. The girls always had great days and did lots of fun activities both on and off site throughout the year. Would 100% recommend Janie and her services. 👌🏻

Janie looks after my 2 year old little boy, I would highly reccomend her she is excellent with my clingy boy and he adores her. He comes home with lots of excitement after his fun filled day at Janies, I can't thank her enough for all she does for him, thanks Janie xx

Thank you for your lovely review, your little man is a pleasure to care for 😊
Janie was my daughters childminder up till she started pre school and she absolutely loved going there she always came home very happy and always looked forward to going. Janie was brilliant at communicating with me and went above and beyond to help our own personal family situration. I would highly recommend janie to anybody.

Janie is absolutely amazing. When initially searching for a childminder I was always watching for my daughters response to the person and the setting. In every other setting she clung to us but as soon as we stepped foot into Janie's home she was right off playing and almost didn't want to come home!! It is clear that Janie genuinely loves and cares for the children like they are her own, although we've only met her in the last year it feels like the children are cared for by an aunt or close family friend. My girls get so excited to be going back to Janie's after the weekend, they have fun packed days full of activities and are well cared for. I couldn't reccoment her enough!

My daughter really enjoys her time spent at Janie's and we have peace of mind that she is in good hands.
Janie takes the children out to lots of fun places and does lots of activities whilst at home too.
I would definitely recommend 'At home with Janie' if you are looking for a childminder :-)

Both my children have being coming to Janies for about 3 years. Janie is amazing with the children. Nothing is ever too much and it's like home from home. My kids are very comfortable at Janies house and it is a lovely environment for them to play and learn. For a parent going to work and leaving a little one can be so daunting but I do not worry at all when my kids are at Janies I know they are in safe hands. I could not recommend Janie highly enough she is an absolute star!!

thanks for your review, its a pleasure to care for your children
Janie has looked after my son for around a year now. He has come on leaps and bounds whilst he has been in her care. He struggled to settle in his previous setting but is now a confident, independent, happy little boy. I would definitely recommend Janie to any parent wanting childcare.
