Jo Ball's Reviews

Fabulous and trustworthy!

Jo has looked after our daughter since she was around 11 months old and we both found it difficult to choose someone that we would trust fully, as we both work full-time and are at work for a considerable amount of time.
Since finding Jo, we have been more than happy with the love and care that she provides for our daughter. Our daughter is treated fairly and is encouraged to become more confident when taking part in activities. It was important for us to find a happy, secure and loving home environment due to our daughter’s personality, and this is apparent in the progress that she has made with Jo more than a year later. She is much more confident and vocal, and is making steps of progress at her level.
Our daughter truly loves seeing Jo and has a strong relationship with Jo, where fair rules and boundaries are also in place. Jo is excellent at sharing information about development or general day-to-day activities, and has always been happy to share information with our Health Visitor if required. Jo takes our daughter on lots of outings such as to the park and soft play, as well as to local toddler groups, so that our daughter can socialise with other children. We would highly recommend Jo to anyone looking for a trustworthy and honest childminder and we know that we will all miss her lots.

Amazing Childminder

Jo has been an absolute godsend. She treated my little boy like one of her own and nurtured his interests at every opportunity. It was important to me to find a happy, home setting for my son to thrive in and Jo certainly provided that. She plans a wide range of activities to stimulate the children and will take them on exciting outings to the local farm, woodland and play areas. She pays attention to the individual interests of each child and will use this to encourage them developmentally in many ways. She is honest and extremely trustworthy. She has a warm and loving but no nonsense approach which allows the children in her care to feel safe and secure in the well established boundaries set. I would have loved my little boy to stay with her but we decided it was best to move him when we moved house. I would 100% recommend Jo to anyone looking for a childminder. She is simply amazing.

Wonderful childminder!!!

Jo is an amazing childminder who was recommended to us by friends. She has now been looking after our son since he was 4 months old and there has not been a day where he has not been happy and smiling.
We can go to work without worrying about the safety or the wellbeing of our child. He learns so many things while having a really good time. The other kids are also wonderful and are getting on well together. It is as if everybody is part of the family.
Jo is very accommodating, which we find really appreciable.
We would strongly recommend Jo to any parents looking for a loving and caring childminder.
