If you are reading this and still looking for the best childminder for your child, you can stop right now, because Jemma and her Little Jems is one of the best childminders you will find in a 500 mile radius.
when we came to see her "Little Jems" setting, we new straight away that her place will be perfect for our son.
Jemma has a separate Annexe at the back of her garden with all kinds of toys and equipment for children to learn and explore new things.
During the day, she organises different activities for children, takes them to different places like soft-plays, playgroups, parks, playgrounds... etc.
During hot summer days, she puts out in her garden a paddling pool to keep children cool.
She provides for children very good and balanced diet - cooks healthy meals and gives them nutritional snacks. Occasionally, they also get a treat in a form of a cake, juice or ice-cream when they celebrate someone's birthday.
Jemma has got live rabbits in her garden and lets children to feed them, stroke them, and teaches them to look after animals and to be always kind to each other.
She keeps a record of all major activities / incidents for each child - she writes everything down in a notebook, e.g. what they eat, drink and other information about their wellbeing.
She also keeps us updated about our son's activities throughout the day by sending us pictures and videos via WhatsApp.
Jemma is truly amazing childminder. She is loving, carring, dedicated to her job and generally very positive person.
She brings warmth to our hearts and sets our minds at peace every day our son is with her.
