Joanna was recommended to me by one of the other mums using her services and at that point I was moving house, coming to the new town, going back to work full time with 12 months old twins and a job in the City. Quite a lot on my plate, but first time I went to meet Joanna, just to talk about the possibly of her looking after our Boys, I knew she was the right person for the job.
Her house is completely converted to a little nursery, well equipped, child-friendly, she prepares fresh home made food every day, ..., exactly the environment I wanted my boys to stay in whilst mummy and daddy had to work. Joanna is fully qualified, very experienced and has two assistants who are also absolute stars. Boys had absolutely no issues with settling in which was a relief as I had to commute to London. In terms of boys education and development I had no doubt, Joanna was doing great job after a short while as my boys were able to count to nearly 30 not long after their second birthday, singing lots of nursery rhythms, etc....
On the top of being absolutely wonderful childminder, Joanna goes above and beyond with what she does for the kids, she organises amazing Christmas, Halloween and other parties for little ones, annual photographer visits and so much more.
Now, two and a half years later, we unfortunately had to say goodbye to Joanna and her team as Boys are starting full time pre-school from September and I had literally tears in my eyes just thinking about boys not going to Joanna's every day.
I just can't praise Joanna and her team enough for what they've done with my boys as they have turned into very smart, kind and confident individuals and as sad as it sounds I can't take much credit for it myself.

Thanks for everything you've done for us Joanna. xxx
