Janine has been caring for our son for 18 months, and we feel incredibly lucky to have found such a caring, responsible and fun person to look after him.

We love the varied day she provides for him, including getting out and about, and some more chilled time with books and toys. The really thinks about the balance appropriate for the children in her care, and we're very grateful for this.

As well as having a lot of fun, I know that he has learned a lot from her (as English is not spoken at home so everything in English comes from her care). This has come from the medium of fun and play. He loves the other children in her care, including her own children.

The food is healthy and well planned too - and she takes into account the children's personal preferences and needs very well.

I truly couldn't recommend Janine enough. It's a tough decision to make when deciding upon care for your child, but she has become an important part of my son's life.

Feel free to contact me for more details (presumably via Janine, unless this site allows PMs) for more details and I can happily talk answer any more questions you have either via email or on the phone.
