Caring and lovely .

I have known Jane for less than 1 year and I know that she is a very caring person. She has gone above and beyond to give a space to Alessia when I first contacted her. Since then Jane has made a home from home for Alessia. Under her care, Alessia has grown into a beautiful, caring and smart little girl. Everyone can see that she loves childminding and loves the children in her care; they become a part her family, no just children that she cares for a few hours per day.
She is caring, loving and understanding. Whenever I have needed advice about Alessia she was there to put my mind to ease every time; gave my precious advice about how to deal with a very energetic and strong minded little girl.
Every day is a new day and Jane finds new ways to make them exciting and different. Alessia is looking forward every morning to seeing “Janey Janey” and having a new adventure. My little girl loves singing, dancing and exercising – this is thanks to Jane – the care she gives her, the playgroups and activities she takes her to.
Offering healthy and nutritious meals, transformed our Alessia from a picky eater into a little girl interested in eating a larger variety of food.
Sending me daily pictures has made me feel at ease knowing that Alessia is having a good time and is very well looked after.
Jane has been a God sent to us and we will always be grateful for everything she did for Alessia and us.

Outstanding Childminder

Jane has been taking exceptionally good care of our 10 month old son.

His time with Jane sadly comes to an end this month only because we are moving out of area - we definitely would not have changed childminder if we were remaining local. 

Alot of Mums are quite worried about leaving their child in the care of someone else, naturally.  As I'm only human, I too was concerned as I returned to work 4 days a week.

I wanted to find a childminder that I could trust to: 1) make sure my child is happy, well fed and regularly changed during the day & has a sleep twice a day; 2) adequately stimulated throughout the day with various activities; 3) give me no reason to worry while at work; 4) offer care in practical, knowledgable way that did not lead to calls to me in the day  for small issues &, 5) to be confident in using their initiative to sort small issues throughout the day.

Too much to ask? It seems not!  Jane sets the bar very high, meeting all of the above and much, much more. She instills care & confidence. 

My child was well looked after with Jane. I leave him with a happy face and I collect him in the evening with the same, having enjoyed activities on a planned or spontaneous (weather depending!), well organised and structure way, both in and outdoors,throughout the day.

I'm happy to recommend Jane and wouldn't leave my child with another childminder if she wasn't of the same abilities as Jane.  

Jane works with you as a parent and provides feedback each day, in line with the Early Years framework. 

You couldn't ask for more! Pity she didn't live down the road to our new address!! I'm happy for you to contact me directly in relation to this recommendation.

Thankyou for your lovely review, and we miss miss him terribly too!. Myself and my children have grown to love his infectious laughter and energy.We wish you all the luck with the future. xx

Like a second Mum to the children

I have used Jane for 3 years now for both my sons. Jane is great, the children she cares for always come first and she is always out and about doing lots of fun activities with them and always outdoors whatever the weather. Jane's own children are fantastic kids and great with the others children too, like an extended family. If you are looking for someone with experience, who is caring, dedicated and reliable then I highly recommend Jane.

Thanks chantele, the children are part of our family and we love them.we have enjoyed every minute of looking after the children and being part of their lives . Xxxxx

Excellent childminder!

Jane looked after our two sons (1 and 4 years old) while I was working full time. The children love her and were always excited about spending the day with her.

They daily activities were both fun and didactic. They would go to a museum or to the zoo or the aquarium as well as many playgroups and they would also go to the park to enjoy some fresh air.

She encouraged their development and provided us with feedback as to what milestones they had achieved.

My children came home tired but already fed, happy and clean.
I couldn't recommend Jane higher. She is a genuinely lovely person with a great attitude, very professional and excellent at her job.
