Jenny & Jess have been looking after my 2 children for just over a year now. My youngest had just turned 1 when he started and it was the first time leaving him in order to return to work. I was worried as he was super clingy and wouldn't even settle with family members. As little as a week later he was fine. Jenny is VERY accommodating, my work days change from month to month and she allows me to have a flexible contract. She prepared my eldest for school and now continues with school run/school holiday care.
When my youngest had to go dairy free Jenny ensured that he didn't miss out. Sometimes we'll be at home and my eldest will randomly start talking about Jenny (mainly how much she loves her). At this point she is their second parent and as a single parent I need all the help I can get lol

My boys love going Jenny and Jess's for scholl pick ups and drop offs. My youngest struggles to settle in new places but warmed to them straight away and settled immediately. They both love going and knowing they are going to a loving, friendly and fun home really makes all the difference.

My daughter has been in the care of Jenny and Jess since she was 9 months old. She is now 3. They provide an amazing setting and treat the kids so well. They complete many activities and are also very flexible (which helps massively with my job in the NHS), I wouldn’t have been able to complete my degree without their support. My daughter loves it here, and when she’s not in she still gets her bag and says come on mummy time for Jenny’s. The love and care provided is to such a high standard it is unreal, and they love each child as if they were their own.

Jenny & Jess have been amazing for my little boy! He loves going there and feels so comfortable in the setting. He's always so happy on drop off and pick ups. He loves Jenny so much, so much so that as I'm leaving they stay in the porch for a good couple minutes just cuddling. It's so precious! He learns so much there and has come on so much in his speech development by being around older kids also. He eats really well there, proper hearty meals which I love. It's honestly like a home away from home and that makes me feel so comfortable leaving my heart with someone else. Could not ask for a better person to help me raise my child ❤️

Absolutely amazing service from Jenny and Jess , my son has been attending since 9months old and is now approaching 4 years ,he loves attending Jenny’s and seeing his friends , I cannot fault anything with the support to myself as a mom and the development with my son. Nothing is ever to much for both Jenny and Jess , they are very efficient with updates and communication is amazing.
Both Jenny and Jess are very approachable , always smiling and willing to help in any way possible. The love and dedication they both provide is outstanding and I am so happy it was the place I chose. They both are truely amazing people and my son will always come home and say “ my Jenny and Jess are the best friends ever “ which means the world.

After using Jenny and Jess for the past 5 years I could not recommend them enough. My 4 grandchildren go to this setting and love it. 1 of my granddaughters is autistic and so does not do well with change, however she loves going to Jennys and has come on leaps and bounds. Jenny and Jess prepare the little ones for nursery school by teaching them everything from counting to how to hold a pencil but most importantly they teach them how to have fun. Jenny and Jess also host crazy parties throughout the year for Easter, halloween and Christmas the kids absolutely love it. WELL DONE LADIES KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK WE WOULD BE LOST WITH OUT YOU, YOU ARE A CREDIT TO THE CHILDCARE SECTOR XXXX

Finding a setting and somebody you can trust to take care of your little one can be so difficult , time consuming and heart rendering. As soon as we met Jenny the warmth and compassion that she has in bucket loads overwhelmed us and gave us the confidence that our Daughter would be in very safe hands. How right we were !!! Jenny and Jess have massively contributed to the remarkable development of our Daughter in such a short space of time. The commitment to the safety and well being of our child during these very difficult times has been second to none. Clean , very friendly , approachable and very informative in the development of your child. I cannot speak highly enough of both Jenny and Jess. If your looking for a first class , safe and secure setting then look no further.

When searching for a childminder I came across childcare.co.uk. I am so glad that I did as I found Jenny's Little People!
I send a message to Jenny straightaway requesting further information, explaining our circumstances and to see what availability she had. Jenny replied straightaway and we gladly went for a visit.
My 1 year old granddaughter settled in straightaway whilst myself and son had time to chat with Jenny.
Well what can I say it was an instant decision from that moment and we knew that there would be no other childminder that we would want our precious little madam to be with.
I can't thank Jenny and Jess enough for all the care that they have provided as well as the educational topics that they do with the children especially the little ones to get them ready for big school. We are now 3 years in, my granddaughter loves going to Jenny's Little People, she started school nursery in September (very advanced for her age thanks to the early education at Jenny's) and she still goes to Jenny's after school as Jenny does the school run for the children of school age.
Now my daughter-in-law has also moved her to girls to Jenny's Little People and she could not believe the difference from the last childminder who did nothing and the girls not enjoying it to them loving going to Jenny's.
Jenny and Jess I can't thank you enough for coming into our lives and becoming part of our family as Jenny's Little People is one big family and we all come together helping the children celebrating special occasion with fun days, fancy dress and parties on top of the education you provide ❤

When deciding to put my little one into childcare , I worried and didn't know where to start , what to look for etc. And after viewing multiple settings of different types etc , I will be forever thankful than I stumbled upon Jenny's little people.
Abbi started with Jenny at just 8 months old , and since then she has excelled in all aspects , she thoroughly enjoys going , in fact sometimes on a non childminding day I bribe her with going to see Jenny and Jess just to get her dressed 🤣
Jenny and Jess are both so caring , loving , patient to name a few! Always there if you have any worries , or concerns and extremely helpful , and give it 110% for the kids in there care.
I would highly highly recommend sending your little one here , it's a very big decision to put your child in the right care and I can assure you , you wouldn't regret sending them to Jenny!
Abbi is now 2 and will continue here until she starts school , and her little sister will be joining her in a few months.

After a horrific experience with a childminder I found on this site Jenny really helped me out and went out of her way when I was left in tears.
Since my little girl Esme has been in her care two days a week for the last few months she has become a lot more sociable and confident. Jenny is understanding and does what ever she can to be flexible and to help you out when in a tough spot.
I can tell from my daughter's behaviour that she loves being at Jenny's, she is progressing and developing in many wonderful days which is all documented which is great to see.
I have peace of mind when I leave my daughter with Jenny and her team that she is left in a loving, caring, safe environment and her individual needs are met. It's great to see my daughter reaching out for Jenny to pick her up out of my arms. I couldn't say enough she is amazing with my little girl xx

Jenny was recommended to me by a friend whose little one was attending as I was looking for a childcare setting to introduce our son to nurseries and to give him confidence in being around other adults and children.
Jenny was easy to contact and answered all of my questions. Having worked in childcare I knew the background and was wary of where to send our son. On first meeting Jenny she made me and Noah feel completely at ease. I felt like I was having a cuppa with an old friend. Every child there was happy, content and polite. We had settling in sessions and was updated with how he was getting on and was made to feel that we could contact her at any time if we felt we wanted to.
Leaving your child, your sole main treasure in someone else's care is a very big deal. With Jenny it's not like that in the slightest. Every visit she and Jayne make you feel welcome and at ease. I love the home from home feel and unlike nurseries it's not crowded and Noah has time to play and learn at his own pace. He's come on leaps and bounds with their guidance and I cannot fault Jenny one bit.
He stays for his lunch and he comes home with a little book, photos are sometimes put in there which is wonderful.
Jenny's house is immaculate. I cannot praise this team enough. Our son recognises her road and gets excited to go there! He comes out a very happy boy, content and full of smiles! I know he is cared for completely while in Jenny's care. They have become a part of ours and Noah's lives and have become so very close which is wonderful to have found in a childcare setting.
The fees are more than reasonable and his lunches are of such a high standard. I would recommend Jenny to any parent that is unsure if a childminder is for them. I looked around nurseries and other childminders and no one or nowhere came close. Really over the moon to have found Jenny!

I really did my research when it came to looking for a childminder for my girls. I went along with my sister to her children's primary school on many occasions and asked parents and teachers alike about the childminders that attend that school. None came anywhere near as recommended as Jenny!!!! It shows in the way the children are with her and the way she is with them!! That speaks for itself in volumes.
When I went for a home visit I was delighted in how down to earth and friendly her setting is. The other childminder that works with her is just as amazing with the children as are Jenny's own children, when I drop my girls off in a morning the house is already filled with so much fun I never want to actually go to work!! They all offer so much to the children and to us as parents too, they all have so much time to lend an ear or advice or just a chat after a hard days work!! You can not get better than Jenny and her gang!! This is what every parent needs to have on their side for a worry free transition back to work!! Couldn't possibly sing her praises enough!!!!

Jenny is a fantastic childminder who was a god send after a previous childminder I had used, who thankfully no longer works with children.
Jenny treats all the children in her care like one of her own. As do her fantastic children. Her daughter who is 16 has babysat for me and is an asset to her Mom.
Jenny puts the needs of the children in her care first.
When first contacting Jenny she gave me contact numbers for other Mom's as it was important for me to get a true opinion from parents who use Jenny. All spoke extremely highly of Jenny. I cant recommend Jenny enough.

I have known Jenny for many years and she has always been so protective and loving of all the children in her care. I would recommend Jenny to anyone who needed childcare as she treats the children in her care like her own. She has been great adapting to the times that I needed over the six weeks holidays. Affordable prices and a lovely welcoming and warming home. All the children in her care are brilliantly behaved and welcoming to my children! Roll on the next holidays!

My son has been with Jenny over two years, since I returned back to work. She is an amazing childminder and person. Jenny always puts the needs of the children first.
Jenny's family are a very loving family and her two children interact with the children fantastically,
My son loves being with Jenny and the warn environment she has created.
He has just started Nursery at Causeway Green School and Jenny picks him up daily from there.
I have extreme trust issues with where my son is left and When I was originally looking for a childminder I met with numerous childminders in the area I live and could not find one I felt comfortable leaving my son with. I then started looking out of my area and as soon as I spoke to Jenny on the phone I knew I had found the right person. I only leave my son with his grandparents or Jenny as I know whilst he is with Jenny he is safe and well looked after.
If your looking for a childminder who wants your child to succeed in life like one of her own, Jenny is the childminder you should use. I can not recommend Jenny enough.

Me and my family of 2children (6year old and 18month old) have been using jenny's childminding services for almost 4years now and i can honestly say i would definatly recommend her to anyone looking for childcare in the local area!! She picks up and drops off my son at causeway green primary school, so she would be perfect if you have children there!
Not only is jenny an extremly good childminder i would also class her as one of my best friends as over the years we have built up an excellent relationship through our mutual dedire to see my children strive in her care.
She is an extremly caring person and it is a pleasure to announce she is my childminder and friend!
She is the whole package and you couldnt wish for more when you are looking for childcare for your little ones!

Jenny was my childminder for a period of 2 years. She is passionate about her career in childcare, the children she cares for and obviously her own family. I am extremely particular about the way my children are cared for and have very strong views on child care and Jenny ticked all the boxes.
My children adore her and I've always felt extremely happy leaving them in her care, knowing they are being loved, guided and educated. Her children are also fantastic with the kids in Jennys care and interact so well with them. It's a very warm and friendly household.
She is an excellent role model,with clear boundaries and always has a listening ear for any child or parent.
I would highly recommend Jenny to anyone looking for childcare.
