I really cannot fault Jenny and Angela’s childcare.
The support they provided my daughter went above and beyond expectations. My daughter was given the greatest love and care which has hugely contributed to her self confidence and strong social skills.
Thank you for everything!!

Jenny and Angela are the MOST AMAZING women you could have look after your child. I never once felt worried dropping my daughter into their setting every day because I knew she would learn, have fun and be safe in everything she did.
Jenny and Angela are transparent, kind, loving and took care of our daughter as we would.
Our daughters day was structured with learning activities and walking, based around free play and relationship building with the other children. Our daughter often brought home art work and biscuits! (Yummy)
They are and always will be part of our lives. They have worked with me and my family to provide the best support they can over the past 12 months and always had our daughters best interest at heart.
Daily text messages with updates and pictures were amazing and always gave me comfort to know our daughter was happy.
I worked away overseas alot and I would always get extra pictures when the ladies knew I would be gone away for a few weeks.
Truly the best childcare providers around! We will miss you.....O.K I will miss you!!
Thank you Ladies, for everything. For every time you went above and beyond, for every time you opened the gate and smiled and for every time you hugged our daughter that extra time as we left.

We can not recommend Jenny and Angela enough for their supportive and friendly approach with our daughter. She always comes home super happy, smiley and full of confidence.
We have been attending their childminder setting for a while now and haven't looked back, our eldest used to attend but is now at school. She learnt so much whilst in their setting and they helped prepare her for her transition to Reception.
A loving, clean, happy and active setting where days are full of fun and laughter.

Our journey with Jenny and Angela started in 2015 when my son started with them when he was 11 months old. From the moment my husband and I walked through the door, we knew that Jenny and Angela were the perfect fit that would provide the best home - from - home care for our son. They are kind, gentle. firm, fair, values based, fun - a true extension from home.
My son moved to Nursery and in 2017 my daughter started there. As siblings are different we had good days and bad days where settling in struggled some days. Jenny and Angela truly supported us through a difficult time with my daughter settling in. Never have they given up, we persevered together. My daughter cannot wait to go to Jenny and Angela and to be with her friends. From talking to my daughter about her experience their, you know she really enjoys going and has a very special place in her heart for Jenny and Angela.
When Covid struck they kept providing the best care to our children. The children learned to play in the woodlands and enjoyed being outside every day. They bake biscuits, make cards, paint, sing, dance, read stories - everything you would want to do with your child and more. We as a family are so grateful for what Jenny and Angela offered our children, we are extremely sad that all good things come to an end and that it will be goodbye soon.

Jenny and Angela have been looking after our two boys the past 4 years and we couldn’t recommend them highly enough.
They provide our children with a home from home experience and know all of the children in their care like the back of their hand.
We know that whilst our boys are in there they are loved, cared for and have a day full of fun. All of the children they look after are polite, kind and taught how to respect and play well with one another. I know that our boys have made some very special friendships there.
They spend time outside, exploring the woods, building dens and much more as well as time indoors, learning about numbers, letters, messy play etc.
Jenny and Angela provide us with a detailed overview of our children’s days, letting us know how well they have eaten, slept and the activities they’ve done during the day as well as wonderful photos of their day. It is clear from the moment you step through the door that Jenny and Angela are the ultimate dream team and work amazingly together to provide children with the best care and their happiness rubs off on the children. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

We recently parted company with Angela and Jenny and it was somewhat emotional! We count ourselves lucky to have found them, and are very grateful for the professional manner with which they cared for our son Mason. We know they had a great deal of affection for him and that he was very fond of them too. They taught him good manners and orderly behaviour, kept him entertained with playful tasks that taught him new skills and took lots of great photos of the fun he was having. We never doubted our son was in good hands and can see from reading the reviews on Jenny's profile, that other parents felt the same way too. The same words keep coming up, which can only be a testament to their consistent approach to caring for each child. We would naturally recommend them to any parent needing a childminder.
Both Jenny and Angela know how to run a successful setting, but its not 'all business' with them. There's a real aspect of empathy, friendliness and fun about them. The environment they create is healthy, structured and fun for the children and we only wish them every success for the future.

My son Zachary is 18 months old and has been with Jenny and her Mother Angela since he was 5 months old. Unfortunately (like a lot of Mothers) I had to return to work full-time and needed childcare for Zachary. As soon as I met Jenny and Angela and visited Angela's house in Knaphill I was confident that myself and Zachary would be happy.
Zachary loves going to Jenny and Angela every day and I look forward to receiving my daily report to tell me what he's been up to. The photos and narrative that are posted onto Tapestry Learning Journal also give us lots of details of the fun things that Zachary and his friends have been doing, places they have visited, crafts they have made and new things that Zachary has learnt. Zachary took his first steps with Jenny and Angela which they filmed for me and Zac's Dad, and Zachary always comes home with new words and actions that he has learnt.
Jenny and Angela look after Zachary with lots of special care and attention and I know that he thinks a lot of them too, judging by the way he often runs to them for a cuddle before he leaves.
I would happily recommend Jenny and Angela as professional, caring and educational childminders.

My son has been going to Jenny and Angela for nearly 2 years now and I am very pleased with the work that both Jenny and Angela have been doing and continue to do with my son. He thoroughly enjoys his time spent with them both. Since he first started with Angela and Jenny, they have made him feel welcome and cared for in a safe and nuturing environment. He comes homes every day and fills me in with all the exciting things that he has been doing that day.
They actively encourage him to become more independant and teach him new skills such as, putting on his coat and shoes by himself. They were also very supportive and encouraging and provided guidance to us during potty training.
I could not recommend Angela and Jenny any more highly to other parents and have done so previously.

My little girls, Elena and Emily, have been in Angela and Jenny’s care for the past nine months and I am extremely happy with how they are being looked after.
Angela and Jenny are extremely caring and, at the same time, very professional.
The girls enjoy a wide variety of activities during the week and they learn a lot every day. Elena and Emily are half Italian and I must say that they learnt their first Italian words with Angela and Jenny who were, and are, very good at teaching them words both in Italian and English.
I could not be happier with the care that my little girls receive every day and they enjoy spending time at Angela and Jenny’s so much that, at times, they don’t want to come home!

My son James is 19 months old and has only been going to Angela and Jenny’s (Mum and Daughter) for just over a month now but I wanted to write a review to say how very pleased I am.
I went back to work in April 2013 and I was using a childminder that my eldest daughter used before she started school. However, after 6 months of James starting she made the decision to move out the area. I therefore needed to find another childminder for James and to re-start the whole settling in to a new environment which as we can imagine is a daunting experience for our little ones (and us parents more!).
However, I need not to of worried as Angela and Jenny are amazing. They offer a home from home experience and accommodate each child’s individual needs and routines.
James fitted in lovely and on day two he ran towards them and didn’t look back! What more do I need to say!
I think it’s a great idea how they work as a duo. This allows a lot more flexibility especially around meal times, pre-school/school runs and concentrating on a individuals childs needs on a one to one basis when needed.
They are always so busy and without fail do something every morning whether it be a toddler group, rhyme time, soft play (in the winter months) and I’m told when the weather gets better more walks, parks and fresh air.
I have recently had to do Jury Service which required the need for additional hours of care for both James and my oldest daughter after school. They have been so accommodating with the additional hours and happy to assist, making my job of balancing everything so much easier.
I am so happy I found Angela and Jenny and I’m sure James will agree with me too!
