The moment I met Jo I knew she was the right person to care for our little girl Chloe. She instantly put us all at ease, this was needed when leaving her at just 7 months old. Chloe was happy to stay with Jo from day one, Jo was amazing at putting her at ease and settling her quickly. For Chloe being with Jo was like a home from home. I was always confident that Chloe was well cared for whilst with Jo.

Jo is attentive and caring to all the children she cares for. She ensures they have activities planned to keep them occupied with is age appropriate to them, and also sets tasks in line with the Early learning frame work which has provided Chloe with the most amazing start for school. I have been asked by the teachers at her school which Nursery she had attended, I have been proud to declare she didn't attend one and all of the skills she has already gained are a credit to Jo. She provided Chloe with all of the skills she needed to embrace school life with confidence.

The environment Jo provides is homely and welcoming. She makes the children feel they are part of the family and they are welcomed by Jo's family members too. Chloe loved her time with Jo and still likes to visit on a regular basis to keep in touch. We as a family feel that Jo has been the best thing for us through all of Chloe's early years, she has not only been great for Chloe but for us too with all of the support she has provided to us when we have needed it.

We cannot recommend Jo highly enough, if you want to know your child is in a loving and caring environment where they will be fully cared for, their needs met, they are stimulated and so you don't have to worry whilst they are away from you then this is the lady to choose!

Finally we would like to thank Jo for everything she has provided to us as a family and for giving Chloe the skills in life she needs to carry forward into the rest of her life. Thanks to you she is excelling in school and creating wonderful friendships.

Thank you from Emma and Mark
