Jodie has been childminding my daughter since she was 9 months old and she will be turning 2 soon! Our daughter loves going to Jodie’s she’s never cried, she has fun learning and making friends! We are some happy and proud at all the milestones our daughter has achieved with Jodie’s help. My daughter becomes more clever and confident everyday. My daughter loves being learning with the fun activities that Jodie and co create. Lastly I would like to add that my daughter loves food and she never comes back hungry and always finishes her food.

I have been using Jodie's services since October 23..I must say she goes above and beyond. She is very intentional about the way she handles my child and he loves it there.i can see just how much he's flourishing within that caring environment. I am very particular about childcare services for my children, and as a mum of 3 I have had my fair share of having to decide on which options are best.Jodie is just fantastic!

We were so lucky to have Jodie, we were not the easiest of clients for her, unorganised and last minute however she made sure she could always accommodate us. Outstanding service and great value as well. Thea was well looked after and always came home with a smile on her face! Sadly we have moved away and are absolutely gutted to not be able to use Jodie’s services anymore. One of a kind.

Jodie is a fantastic childminder and early years practitioner. She provides an excellent learning environment for all the children she looks after. She is warm and caring while setting clear boundaries and being extremely professional. Although I found it very difficult to go back to work after having my son, Jodie settled him in beforehand which made things a lot easier. I have some wonderful memories of my son's time with Jodie the mess he made of himself enjoying his first strawberry; seamless potty training (I was expecting it to be a nightmare) and, when he was older, reading stories to the younger children after school. I receive lots of compliments on my son's nature and behavior, and I always give credit to Jodie for the fantastic start in life she helped us give him. I can't recommend her highly enough.

After returning to work after maternity leave Jodie currently looks after my 8 month old and my 4&6 year old before and after school.
She honestly is an amazing human, she will go the extra mile to accommodate your needs. I really didn’t want to leave my children but she made me feel so comfortable she sends pictures and videos whilst I am at work and makes sure the kids have healthy foods when they are there.
She is kind and caring and posses a real “mum” attitude towards the children.
My two older kids absolutely adore her and ask how many days until they go back there. The baby has also settled in really well and I feel comfortable leaving him now. Her house is always clean and child friendly. If anyone is looking for a childminder who has more to offer than expected this is it!

I have been sending my 4 month old infant to Jodie past 2 days. Although my infant isn't all settled yet , Jodie is making a fantastic effort to get to know him better and also develop their own little bond. She is very warm towards the little one and makes an immense effort to understand his hunger and sleep patterns. She is always happy to provide an update of his progress through the day, which really eases my anxiety levels :)
I am confident that my baby will eventually settle in with her happily.
I strongly recommend Jodie if anyone (like me) is very particular about individual attention and a clean environment for their baby.

Jodie is an amazing childminder, my children love her. I have a 2, 3 and 5-year-old. Jodie is seamless in the way she handles all of my children plus her own. Her warmth and vibrancy keep the children engaged, my children come back ready to sleep and happy. Her home is lovely clean and spacious I would recommend Jodie to anyone.
Jodie loves her job and it shows as my children as fine and well fed in her care - I never have to worry. Jodie is also reasonable accommodating and understanding which makes life easier for me.
