About Me

Please note: I only have availability for children 3 years and upwards.

I have been a nanny for 17 years and I am very excited to have begun my childminding career in January 2021. I am Ofsted registered.

I live within a short walking distance from Norton St Nicholas Primary School and I can provide before and after school care. I have a daughter that attends this school and she is used to (and loves!) being around children, of all ages.

I am also available during the day for children aged 3yrs and over.

I am registered for 3 & 4 year old funding schemes (Free Early Education).

I am a registered childcare grant provider.

Jenny was able to offer us some support for 4 days of last minute childcare for our twin boys. For the short period of time the boys were there they had a wonderful time playing with the amazing range of resources Jenny has available. They really enjoyed their days there, especially Junk modelling and playing in the garden. Jenny is very accommodating of any specific needs and her communication and updates to us were excellent. Her childminding setting is very homely and she is very professional. Thank you Jenny! :)

We feel so lucky to have found Jenny to look after our sons (year 5 and 2) after school. She is truly wonderful. The boys are so happy there. Her home and garden are incredible. There are lots of lovely toys, puzzles and junk modelling! Jenny is a true professional, so organised with documents and paperwork, and she sends the most lovely update each week on what the children have been doing. We feel so confident in the care they have from her. We could not recommend her highly enough!!

Thank you! It is a joy to have your boys in my company each week and I look forward to continuing to provide your family childcare in September.

Jenny is the most wonderful childminder and my son warmed to her straight away. I refer to Jenny as a "magical" as she encourages my son to eat things he would not have tried before. I believe this is down to her nature as she is so calm, engaged, present and kind with my son, and makes everything fun and stimulating. Jenny informs me of how my son has been with detailed messages and plenty of photos, which makes me so happy to see him having fun.

Jenny always greets us with a warm and bright smile and my son absolutely adores going to see her, her daughter and their family dog.

I would highly recommend Jenny and I feel so secure knowing my son is taken care of so well.
