Following the birth of my Daughter in 2006, the 6 months maternity leave came and went too quickly! Unsure of my options of working hours that I may need to consider I was quickly rescued by Julie allowing me to return back to work full time.

It was my mum who recognised Julie from working at the same factory as us and also recalled her leaving to persue her childminding career. Julie's immediate "likeabilty, professionalism and flexibility" soon had us sold - Oh and the fact that she had a son the same age as my daughter, and being a stone throw away too!!

We are very greatful for everything that Julie done during the year + that she cared for our daughter. She contributed considerably to the way my daughter behaves and this is reflective in her own children. Julie was able to provide her with the right environment, equipment, activities and able to provide us with photos, greetings cards and pictures to enjoy.

Julie also encouraged routine and supported the children to understand how to play nicely and share. She was also able to provide activities that some parent cringe at the thought of! ie. Gluing, Painting and GLITTER as well as baking.
I believe this contribruted considerably to my daughter settling into pre-school very easily as Julie had provided her with all the necesary skills/manners.

I cannot thank her enough x
