My daughter went to Jade’s for two years almost, finishing a month or so back so that she could start school. We had never dealt with childcare before and Jade made everything easy. Our daughter was always excited to go and always had a lovely time. Any issues were always communicated back to us appropriately and we felt that we could give feedback at any time too. Jade was always as flexible as possible, which was massively appreciated as two parents who work shifts.
100% recommend.

I viewd a viewed a few childminders before and non have felt right when I met Jade she was very professional and my children took to her straight away! having a child with additional needs I worry alot and can be very over protective but I haven't felt like that at all. Jade is amazing with them and she took the time to get to know my son and understand his needs she understands and gets him and he has formed a lovely bond with her. He takes a long time to settle into new settings but he never wants to come hom when he is there so that was the biggest sign for me.
Jade will always go out her way to change times where possible and her communication is amazing.
my son is a fussy eater but will eat food he wouldnt dream of touching at home so I'm over the moon about that also.
I have had an amazing experience and will continue to use Jade as my my provider. The communication is so important for me and I always get feed back which I love. I feel at ease and happy knowing my children are in safe hands and how much they have learned and picked up also.

We've had quite an unpleasant experience with this childminder and tried to pull out of our contract after three weeks of our agreement but to our surprise we received her email asking us to pay for the full notice period despite the fact that our children have only spent 9 days physically in her care and another week at home being off-sick. We understand that she has the rights to do so and it is our fault that we signed her contract without reading it properly but we still hoped she would be flexible and understanding of our situation and wouldn't charge us for nine weeks of her service when in fact our children spent less than 2 weeks going into her setting. We felt that we have been ripped off, beware of her contract terms.

I'm a mother of two and, after my older girl had some bad experiences with nannies, we decided to try a childminder for our second child.
Jade is very calm, loving and understanding of parents' anxieties about leaving their little ones, which is very much needed in my case as I was so anxious after what my poor first girl went through. She was happy to provide me with three references and when I called them, all gave glowing reviews of how much their children loved Jade.
My daughter was nearly one years old when she started with Jade and from early on my daughter absolutely loves going to Jade's house. She is impatient to leave in the morning, getting our shoes as well as her own to try and hurry us out the door! For comparison, when I had my first child, it took her ages to settle with her nanny. So when friends used to tell me that their kids loved going to nursery/their childminder and would be trying to run out the door to get there, I thought they were deluding themselves - as all the books I had read on attachment told me that one on one attention up to age three is essential, that nurseries/too many other children is stressful for young babies and children etc. But the exact opposite seems to have been our experience - our younger girl is thriving and is so happy and secure with Jade and having several other children around, whereas our older girl, who had one on one attention with a nanny for nearly two years, has attachment issues (which are thankfully now subsiding after her starting school).
We are now five months in and I am so, so happy that we went with Jade. I wish I had done the same for my older girl.

I am a mother of 3, that has used many childminders and nurseries over the years and Jade is the best childminder we have had!!! She is very caring, loving and attentive. Jade looks after my 2 daughters and they always have a big smile on their face when they go to Jade's.
Jade is very flexible and has always been there when we needed childcare at very short notice, overall extremely reliable and has a great 'can do' attitude.
Jade is always happy to hear your thoughts on how the service can be improved and takes actions as and if required. Jade provides us with a daily diary for our daughter that is on full time care and this way we are constantly informed of her activities, what she eats, time of naps and change of nappies.
Jade also takes the kids out regularly, which is very refreshing to see.
I would be very happy to recommend Jade to anyone looking for a childminder, she is definitely the type of person I want to look after my children.

Our little boy has been going to Jade for the past 6 weeks and he loves it. When we collect him he always has a big smile on his face. Jade is great with the children, she gets them doing all kinds of activities which is really great and has even recently had a playroom created and changed her garden for the children. She is very patient and caring and really flexible which we very much appreciate. We also know that our little boy is being very well cared for as well as having a good time and being helped with his development. We cannot recommend Jade enough.

My Daughter has been going to Jade since she was 10 months when I went back to work. With her still being so young I was keen to find a home from home setting and Jade has definitely provided this. Jade has spent a lot of time and money improving the setting over the year and always introducing new ideas and activities.
I was looking for someone who was willing to do day /half day/ hourly rates to fit in with my mum travelling down to spend time with my daughter too on a weekly basis as well as being understanding to the issues faced on the daily commute in and out of London. I am usually able to give Jade plenty of notice of the weeks we require less or more childcare but she has also been very accommodating with some late requests.
The assistants who have worked for Jade, her husband and children have also been great with my daughter and she equally enjoys spending time with them.
My daughter always has a smile on her face when I pick her up - like she has had the best time ever- and confidently runs into Jades when I drop her off with excitement it's great to see how well she has settled in.

One of the best babysitters/nannies I’ve ever had :) she was perfect in every way (like a Mary poppins) she treated my son like one of her own, she’s patient, kind, loving and understanding. My son has a disability which she didn’t have a problem with...I trust her 100% which my son....he loves her...
Wish I never moved out of London because I would still be using her :(
*****One in a million*****

Our one year old spent 3 days a week with Jade whilst my partner and I were working in London. Jade could not have been more excellent to communicate with and I wish I lived closer so she could look after our son all the time. This was our first experience of leaving him with a childminder and I was at ease from the first moment I dropped him off. I had full confidence that he was receiving a high level of care and he was always so happy when he had been with Jade that it was clear that he really enjoyed and benefitted from his time with her. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Jade.
