I am writing to highly recommend Jane as an exceptional childminder. I have entrusted my child to her care for the past 3 years and have been consistently impressed with her dedication, professionalism, and nurturing approach to childcare. Jane has created a warm, supportive, and stimulating environment for Isabella. She is patient, understanding, and genuinely enjoys spending time with children. Isabella has always been happy and engaged when I pick her up from Jane's home. I am particularly impressed with Jane's commitment to providing healthy and nutritious meals. She takes great care to prepare meals that are both delicious and age-appropriate. This has contributed significantly to Isabella's growth and development. Jane's home is impeccably clean and well-organized, fostering a sense of order and safety for the children under her care. She is meticulous about maintaining hygiene standards, ensuring that Isabella is always in a clean and healthy environment. Beyond her daily care, Jane has actively engaged Isabella in age-appropriate activities that promote learning and development. She organizes educational games, crafts, and outings that stimulate Isabella's curiosity and creativity. I have observed a significant improvement in Isabella's social skills, language development, and overall cognitive abilities since being under Jane's care. Jane played a pivotal role in supporting my child during a challenging emotional period caused by my separation from my ex-partner. She provided a safe and supportive environment where Isabella felt comfortable expressing her feelings and processing her emotions. She also recognized Isabella's need for emotional expression and encouraged various outlets, such as art, storytelling, and play. These activities allowed Isabella to process her feelings in a healthy and constructive manner. Without a doubt, Jane is an invaluable asset to any family seeking quality childcare. She is not only a caring and capable provider but also a passionate educator who truly understands the importance of nurturing young minds. I have no hesitation in recommending her to any family looking for a nurturing and stimulating environment for their child.

Thank you Giulia it’s a pleasure caring for Bella, I watch her grow sync seen her turn into a beautiful, lively, clever individual
My daughter started going to Jane when she was 3 years old. She looked after her 5 days a week.
I was extremely happy with the care my daughter received, and the great progress she had made whilst in Jane’s care.
My daughter settled very well at Jane’s from day one and she was always very happy to go there.
Jane is warm and friendly and provides
a wide, fun range of activities, especially outdoor such as going to the local parks and seaside.
Throughout a day Jane would send me photos of Elizabeth, which I was always looking forward to receiving. When I picked her up after work, Jane would always update me on what Elizabeth had done, eaten and any other issues.
All in all I was completely happy with the level of care my daughter had received and
I would absolutely recommend Jane as a great and reliable childminder.

Thank you soo much for your lovely review and it has been an absolute pleasure caring for Elizabeth.
Many thanks Jane x
Jane was my son's childminder for over 9 months - we absolutely would of continued the care but we have moved out of the area, however during that time Jane allowed our son to explore so much, he grew before our eyes every time he spent a day with Jane and the other children.
He learned how to walk, to talk and to count in Janes care. We couldn't have been happier with the support she showed our son. He is a very fussy eater, but it wasn't long before Jane found of what healthy foods he would never refuse and always made sure there was plenty for him.
We were updated with photos during the day, a log book of activities/naps/food etc and he always left saying new words, singing at the top of his lungs and with a face full of spaghetti!
Thank you Jane, we trusted you with the care of our son, and you never let us down!

Jane welcome my Liam ( 6 5 month baby) into her family house for the last year. Jane always provided stimulating activities , which regularly included art and crafts , social play with the other children and educational activities linked in to EYFS. He enjoyed day trips, picnic and outdoor activities.
Jane service is extremely reliable , never requiere time off without notice and always being upfront and honest about charges , invoices and notices period.
I no longer use Janes childminding because we are moving to Newcastle however I do not hesite in recommending her excellent services to anyone who would like their children to be looked after in caring , fun and professional environments.
Thank you xx

Thank for Laura & Alberto
I wish miss Liam so much and wish you all a lovely new life in Newcastle 😀
Jane has been carrying for our son for a couple of years now and it was honestly the best decision we could have made, for our boy. He loves his days with Jane and the friends he has made.
We can't wait for our youngest son to join them, when I go back to work. We know they will both be in very safe hands and have the most exciting, fun time. Thank you so much Jane!

Our daughter has been going to Jane since she was 10 months old and her time with Jane has been absolutely wonderful! Even though Jane looks after multiple children, she has a lovely way of building an individual bond with each child and they become part of her family. Jane’s children are a real credit to her and are great with the children too. Our daughter absolutely loves going to Jane’s and would count down the days till she saw her ‘Janey’ again. Jane has been a fantastic carer, she gives healthy meals and does a great job of stimulating the children through activities whether that’s at home, the local playgroup or even the sea life centre or children’s museum and I’m convinced our 4 year old is as articulate as she is because of these experiences. I love that Jane takes pictures throughout the day to update us on what activities they are doing. I have never had to worry about Anaiah whilst she’s been in Jane’s care - she has been extremely happy and that is really testament to the great care given by Jane. I would not hesitate to recommend Jane, she is the gold standard in childminding and you will not be disappointed!

I have known Jane for less than 1 year and I know that she is a very caring person. She has gone above and beyond to give a space to Alessia when I first contacted her. Since then Jane has made a home from home for Alessia. Under her care, Alessia has grown into a beautiful, caring and smart little girl. Everyone can see that she loves childminding and loves the children in her care; they become a part her family, no just children that she cares for a few hours per day.
She is caring, loving and understanding. Whenever I have needed advice about Alessia she was there to put my mind to ease every time; gave my precious advice about how to deal with a very energetic and strong minded little girl.
Every day is a new day and Jane finds new ways to make them exciting and different. Alessia is looking forward every morning to seeing “Janey Janey” and having a new adventure. My little girl loves singing, dancing and exercising – this is thanks to Jane – the care she gives her, the playgroups and activities she takes her to.
Offering healthy and nutritious meals, transformed our Alessia from a picky eater into a little girl interested in eating a larger variety of food.
Sending me daily pictures has made me feel at ease knowing that Alessia is having a good time and is very well looked after.
Jane has been a God sent to us and we will always be grateful for everything she did for Alessia and us.

Jane has been taking exceptionally good care of our 10 month old son.
His time with Jane sadly comes to an end this month only because we are moving out of area - we definitely would not have changed childminder if we were remaining local.Â
Alot of Mums are quite worried about leaving their child in the care of someone else, naturally. Â As I'm only human, I too was concerned as I returned to work 4 days a week.
I wanted to find a childminder that I could trust to: 1) make sure my child is happy, well fed and regularly changed during the day & has a sleep twice a day; 2) adequately stimulated throughout the day with various activities; 3) give me no reason to worry while at work; 4) offer care in practical, knowledgable way that did not lead to calls to me in the day  for small issues &, 5) to be confident in using their initiative to sort small issues throughout the day.
Too much to ask? It seems not! Â Jane sets the bar very high, meeting all of the above and much, much more. She instills care & confidence.Â
My child was well looked after with Jane. I leave him with a happy face and I collect him in the evening with the same, having enjoyed activities on a planned or spontaneous (weather depending!), well organised and structure way, both in and outdoors,throughout the day.
I'm happy to recommend Jane and wouldn't leave my child with another childminder if she wasn't of the same abilities as Jane. Â
Jane works with you as a parent and provides feedback each day, in line with the Early Years framework.Â
You couldn't ask for more! Pity she didn't live down the road to our new address!! I'm happy for you to contact me directly in relation to this recommendation.

Thankyou for your lovely review, and we miss miss him terribly too!. Myself and my children have grown to love his infectious laughter and energy.We wish you all the luck with the future. xx
I have used Jane for 3 years now for both my sons. Jane is great, the children she cares for always come first and she is always out and about doing lots of fun activities with them and always outdoors whatever the weather. Jane's own children are fantastic kids and great with the others children too, like an extended family. If you are looking for someone with experience, who is caring, dedicated and reliable then I highly recommend Jane.
