Jo has looked after my 15 month old daughter, Sophie, for 4 full days a week since October 2012. Sophie absolutely loves visiting Jo and her family! More often than not Sophie doesn't even notice when I come to collect her. It is really comforting to know that Sophie is in such good hands when we leave her with Jo for the day.

Jo makes home cooked food for the children she cares for, and all the snacks she gives Sophie are healthy options. It is good to know that Sophie is eating nutritious healthy food with Jo.

Jo has literally hundreds of toys for the children to play with. She also takes Sophie to activities such as Mega Bounce and Antics, as well as other trips out (such as to the garden centre to see the reindeer over Christmas!). She also meets up with other childminders, so Sophie gets to socialise with other children of her own, and other, ages.

Jo gets the children she looks after involved in craft activities and cooking, which is lovely! We were presented with an array of goodies which Sophie had helped to make at Christmas time.

All in all we are really happy with the care Jo gives Sophie. She is reliable, honest and kind and really dedicated to the development of the children in her care. My husband and I know that Sophie is cared for and developing in a "home from home" environment, and would not hesitate to recommend Jo to anyone.
