Joanne is an incredible childminder. She is warm, calm and approachable and my little one was instantly comfortable in her home from his first visit.
Her setting is great; safe, clean and bright, with a great selection of toys and books, that the children have free access to.
Joanne sends regular updates and pictures during the day and my little one always looks happy and relaxed. Her communication and openness make asking questions easy, and I am always reassured she has the right approach.
Joanne was so flexible with settling in and I really felt that she had my little one's best interests at heart and had a great approach that worked for him, which was very reassuring right from the start.
Now my little one is settled with her (which happened so quickly!) he runs in every morning and is happy to see me go. He loves his trips to the playgroups and parks and gets on well with the other children Joanne minds. He comes home happy each day, tired from his many adventures. It's clear she creates a great atmosphere for all the children and that they feel safe and cared for with her.
My little one sleeps and eats well with Joanne because he is comfortable and happy, and her communication in ensuring this has been fantastic.
I can't recommend her enough.
