My daughter started with Jess when she was just 9 months old, attending one day a week, and she settled in incredibly quickly. Before long, she was smiling as I dropped her off, which gave me such reassurance that she was happy and comfortable in Jess’s care.

I was amazed at how quickly she started learning new things, from clapping, waving and pointing to recognising lots of nursery rhymes. It was lovely to see her developing new skills and thriving in such a positive environment.

Jess is also a brilliant communicator, keeping me informed and making me feel confident that my daughter was in safe and caring hands. I was equally impressed by the varied, healthy and delicious menu provided.

I honestly cannot recommend Jess highly enough. She provides a wonderful environment for little ones to learn, grow and thrive, and I’m so grateful for the care she has given my daughter!

Jess from the start was brilliant and putting both myself and my little one at ease. Isla-Lilly actively looks forward to spending time there and she has come on leaps and bounds bounds in her confidence thanks to the care show by Jess to adapt activities to her stage of development.
The daily updates via tiney are brilliant and ensure we are updated through the day just like a nursery would. We would highly recommend Jess to anyone looking for a childminder.
