Jane Fay's Reviews

Lovely Jane <3

After a childcare panic as nursery wasn't the right fit for us, we found Jane! From the moment she met our little 1 year old boy she was straight in and hands on. Her bubbly personality brightens the day and she has endless energy. She's super flexible and adapts to whatever he is into whether its counting, drawing or singing the same songs over and over. She's always in the know of local activities which is great as our little one gets lots of outdoors time and socialisation with other children. Jane is very keen on forming a bond with the children she works with, which is very important to us as we can trust her completely and, our boy is comfortable with her and she knows how to interact with him no matter what mood he is in.

She is also a great support to us as parents and reassuring presence whenever things get overwhelming and able to offer tips and advice from all her experience. Unfortunately my mat leave for no.2 means we have to cut short our journey with Jane :( She will definitely be missed.

Sweet & patient Jane

When we first met Jane in Marble Hill Park, she was showing great characters and taking interests in our baby daughter. When she comes to the house to babysit the baby, they play along so well and Jane would take her for walks or read books. Jane has a very warm personality and compassion about the baby/kid she is looking after. So far, we are happy with Jane and we will continue to have her on a regular basis. One thing though you will have to stop her from doing too much, she’s so helpful.

Lovely Jane!

Jane has been looking after my 1.5 yr old since the end of March. I was initially quite nervous about looking into childcare, and this was my first time doing so. My partner and I have little nearby family support, so we were really hoping that the person we found would feel like a part of the family and someone we felt really comfortable with - Jane has been this, and 10 times more!

From the first meeting and having a chat, I instantly loved her stance on childcare and it was really clear that interaction, communication, and responding to a child's needs were important to her. I have definitely seen this in the months that she has looked after my son. I am completely in awe of her energy and enthusiasm! Jane will take my son out all day - taking him to playgroups or parks where he will socialise with other children, and sometimes days just the two of them, exploring kew gardens or syon park. Jane is brilliant at keeping me posted throughout the day with videos and messages of the two of them having a great time.

Not only is Jane brilliant with my son, but she has also been so kind and sensitive towards my feelings throughout this time becoming a mother - taking the plunge into having someone else look after my son was a big deal to me, and Jane completely understood this. Some days I still have a wobble, and Jane puts me at ease and shows so much compassion.

I am so pleased that Jane is a part of our lives and hope she will be for more years to come!
