We have been sending our little boy to Jan since September 2023. This is the first time we’ve ever put our son in any form of childcare and Jan made it super easy. She showed us every qualification and certification she had and is more than qualified to look after anyone’s child.
Our son was a little reluctant at first, but she always reassured us that he was fine and having a great time. Our little boy always has the best time with Jan and she really encourages the kids to be themselves.
Jan’s home is spotless and has a full room dedicated to the children. Lots of resources and fun things to do and lots of toys which always goes down a treat. We would recommend Jan to anybody looking for that warm personal approach to childcare.

Our son has been with Janet since September when he was 9 months old. I was a little nervous putting him into childcare when he was so young but Janet has been amazing! He has the best time when he is there and we love reading what he has been doing in his diary each night. Spending time with Janet and the other children has encouraged him to come out of his shell and our once clingy little boy is now so social! Can’t thank Janet enough for everything she has done.

We started looking for a childminder because our little boy didn’t settle well in nursery. It was such a worrying time for us as both my husband and I needed to go to work. From day 1 with Jan our little boy has gone into Jan’s house happily without so much as a backward glance. Jan is friendly and professional. Our little boy has loved making friends with the small group of children who attend the same days he does and is always excited to tell me about the lovely things he has been doing. Jan provides a little book which she writes in daily to let me know any important messages and what our little boy has been doing that day. Our little boy has loved going to Jan so much that when I started maternity leave and there was no need for him to go he insisted he wanted to.
I honestly didn’t believe I’d find anyone I would feel comfortable leaving my little boy with. I admit that I’m very fussy and don’t let anyone look after him other than my own mother and his dad. Jan has made us all feel comfortable from the very beginning though and keeps us well informed of what my little boy has been doing. It has meant the world to us that he has been so happy with Jan during the last year and a half. I would happily recommend Jan to anyone looking for high quality childcare.

Our 3 year old daughter has been going to Jans since she was 6 months old. Since day 1 Jan has been incredible. Leaving daily notes to tell us what our daughter has been up to each day. Jan provides a safe, fun and educational environment and our daughter loves going. Can’t thank Jan enough.

Jan put me at ease from my very first visit. She is reliable, caring and is so much more than just a child minder.
I receive a diary at the end of each day with a breakdown what they have done. Her house and gardens are immaculate and my little boy & girl adores to be there playing.
I would recommend Jan in a heartbeat to anyone needing a childminder

Our son went to Jan following a bad experience with a previous childminder. This made it even harder to leave him but Jan was amazing.
He’s come on so much and he loves going to play with his friends. He was like a different child once he went to Jan and I would recommend her to everyone.
I can’t thank Jan enough for her help with our little boy and for making it possible for us to go work with worrying.

Jan answered our prayers when our nanny moved out of the area. She is just one of the most caring people that you could ever have the pleasure of meeting. My little boy started when he was 2. Jan gives far more than an average childminder. She genuinely cares for all of the children she looks after (and the parents!). She doesn't just 'child-mind', but teaches the children using the FS profile. My little boy loves going to Jan's house and has come on in leaps and bounds. She encourages confidence, co-operation and good behaviour. I honestly feel so lucky that she had space when we were looking for a childminder. We couldn't imagine anyone as qualified and caring as her to look after our precious little boy.

Our three year old daughter has been with Jan for almost 4 months and loves going. There are loads of opportunities for play and learning and we feel very comfortable leaving her in Jan's care. There is a structured approach to the day so that the children form a routine whilst there and Jan fills in a journal each day to log activities and new developments. Her home and garden environments are immaculate with toys and games for all ages. Thank you Jan!

Jan has cared for my 2 children for 6 years and she is faultless! Jan is 100% reliable and has never let us down. She has helped our daughter, who has SEN and offered advice/support when needed. Jan offers a home from home Environment and my children love going to Jan's house. She offers everything and more you could require from a childminder.
