Jo looked after both my girls from age 1 upwards. She provides a loving, caring environment with a variety of different types of play and plenty of time outside in the fresh air which I particularly liked. Jo is a great communicator so I always knew what the children were up to and we worked together to resolve any challenges or issues the girls' faced. My girls fell in love with Jo and that, as far as I'm concerned, is the most important indicator that the childcare provision was excellent. Jo was flexible and accommodating and has been incredibly supportive to my girls and is as a family while providing our childcare.i would highly recommmend Jo to anyone looking for an excellent childminder and would be very happy to talk to anyone considering working with Jo.

I wanted to share how pleased I was with Jo and her care of my little girl when I returned to work, Jo worked flexibly with me on my phased return as I returned 2 days for a number of weeks followed by 4 days after that, this worked well for my little girl settling in as well as my settling back into work.
Jo provides a happy fun environment with plenty of activities, she also provided an excellent range of foods and I am sure my daughter ate better with Jo than she ever does with me.
I'm sure you will be happy with your childcare arrangements if you choose Jo as your childminder, I found using a childminder preferable for me when leaving my little daughter on my return to work at a time when I didn't feel ready to leave her at nursery
