Excellent Childminder

Reviewed

Jo took care of my daughter Annabelle for around 18 months from when Annabelle was one and until she started pre school. She still provides emergency cover and half term cover for me now.
I was always very happy with how Annabelle was being cared for, Jo does a range of thoughtful and creative activities with the children and themes her activities to tie in together, and she attends play groups, story times and a range of outdoors activities as well from feeding the ducks to visiting the soft play.
I always felt that Annabelle was very engaged and that she had a good mix of outdoor, indoor and educational activities.
Jo also completes an online diary and adds pictures so you can always see what your little ones have been up to which is lovely.
Jo's home is very geared up for child minding and she has a nice area which is just for the kids and a good range of toys and crafts.
Jo has a very nice way with the kids, my daughter was very shy when she started and we moved her from a nursery setting as it did not suit her, but under Jo's care she really came on leaps and bounds, and Jo was also very helpful to me with things like potty training and supporting things I was doing at home with Annabelle.
I can't recommend her enough my daughter was very happy during her time with Jo.
