Our little boy is 2.5 years old and has been going to Jody’s since he was 9 months old. Sonny settled in very easily and is always so so happy to go to Jody’s. Jody and her whole family are lovely and so caring, when Sonny is there he is treated as part of the family and has lovely relationships with Jody’s own children which is great. I know when he is there is he is happy and well cared for. They go to play groups during the week and it is toys galore at her house. We cannot recommend Jody enough as a fantastic childminder. Lee-anne & Oli (happy parents) 😄

Our daughter was cared for by Jody from 11months until 2 1/2years old. Jody provides a loving home from home environment and our daughter was treated as a part of the family. Whilst with Jody she enjoyed going out to play groups, the park, doing arts and crafts and playing and learning with the other children in her care
During her time with Jody our daughter was diagnosed with Coeliac's disease and Jody worked with us to ensure that she did not come into contact with any gluten whilst in her care - which we are extremely grateful for.
Jody's professional and caring nature meant that we always felt that our daughter was safe with her which brought great peace of mind when returning to work. Thank you Jody :)

I didn’t know where to start when looking for a childminder when my daughter was 6 months old.
I visited quite a few childminders but with Jody my gut told me she was right for my child.
She is very warm and loving and my daughter took to her very quickly.
She’s 2 now and Is always asking to go to her house. She plays games, keeps them entertained, takes them to play groups and to the park. She encourages them to interact and play with other children. Jody respects my food choices for my child and also protects her if other children start to be horrible. I’m kept up to date, can look at photographs and she gives child advice as well. A star. Jody treats my child as if she’s her own and my child is often cuddling her children.
I feel very at peace knowing my child is loved and cared for as if she’s their own.
Definitely recommend her.
