About Me

I'm a married mum with 1 daughter aged 11. My husband works away most the week.I love having children around, doing different activities, going out etc Fun is the name of the game. Spending time with my family at the weekend is very important too me. I love reading, swimming, baking & cooking.

My Experience

I have a level 5 NVQ in child care.I have also done a highly sort after course called Being 2, which helps you understand & engage better with the younger child. I love looking after children and in helping my friends out I found I'd love to do it on a permanent basis. As a full time mum before doing this I know how important it is to give your child a home from home setting. We have lots of fun, singing, dancing, making things, going out etc. All the things you would do with your own child & more. We go to playgroups regularly & I also run a dance class, so the children can make even more new friends, playcentres, parks & educational/fun outtings are always planned. We are members of the national trust and love exploring these places as often as possible. Our local surroundings give us so much to explore and talk about when we discuss our day. Trips to farms, zoos and many more places are always on offer too. ?

Ofsted Good Provider Logo
Good
19 October 2022
Children thrive in a warm, welcoming environment that prioritizes independence and community exploration. Clear learning goals are established, resulting in good progress. Excellent communication support and a calm atmosphere contribute to effective development. Healthy eating is encouraged, with children participating in meal decisions. While safeguarding arrangements are effective, there is room for improvement in extending children's awareness of their uniqueness.

Friendly and reliable, has a lovely home with plenty of toys and activities to keep the children occupied, I feel that Jo has a great relationship with all the children in her care and is trustworthy and highly experienced, I would have no problem with recommending to other parents.
