My Summary
About Me
Welcome to JoJo's Childcare. Ofsted Outstanding graded x3 times with over 28 years experience. I have two daughters, 29 and 16. I live with my partner of over 24 years, and our two cockapoo's Pebble & Bertie.
I live in the village of Great Leighs, and have done so for 11 years. This is a smoke free home. My setting has the benefits of a playroom, log cabin and play area for all children to enjoy. My garden is a large space, overlooking countryside and fields. We are often playing in the garden or taking part in outdoor activities such as water play, arts and crafts and sensory play. Children also have access to their own designated bathroom on the same floor which is equipped with built-in baby changing facilities. Older children have their own labelled hand towel for use, in place for hygiene reasons.
We regularly go on outings with the children, visiting local parks and play areas, the zoo, nature reserves and other local play groups. I use my 9-seater car to take the children too and from. This is fully insured and serviced regularly.
I am a fully insured childminder, my setting and car also have specific insurance to cover my role. I was awarded Ofsted outstanding in 2011 and have maintained the same great level since. I truly love my job and caring for the children at JoJo's Childcare!
I work Monday - Thursday from 08.00am through to 17:30 in the evening. I can be flexible with the number of days per week that I can care for your child.
My Experience
Over 25 years. My first daughter was born in 1995, I registered as a childminder in October 1996 and have been caring for children ever since. My second daughter was born in 2007.

My Daughter has been with JoJo for a couple of years now, and she absolutely loves it there!! I took her out of her nursery as she wasn't happy at all. JoJo done a few introductory sessions to start with, and after the first session, my daughter was totally comfortable and happy to be with her straight away. I couldn't believe how easy it was!
My little one adores JoJo, and I would recommend her to everyone!
The things they do and make, and the places they go are absolutely fantastic! My daughter's favourite is the zoo!
She has made some wonderful little friends, and she especially loves JoJos adorable doggys!
We are off to school on a new adventure in September, and we are absolutely gutted to be leaving, but JoJo has really given her the confidence to move on and the tools to make friends and play.
I will be forever grateful!!
