Julie is a very experienced childminder who has been looking after our daughter since she was 4 months. She is extremely kind, caring and very patient and always interacts and engages in the children's activities.

Her home is very welcoming and comforting with a large spacious room for the children to play. She cooks fresh and healthy meals both for and with the children. She provides a perfect place for Children to play, grow and learn.

Communication is great, Julie uses an online system that enables us to log in and see what our daughter is up to - we gets loads of photos too! We can also see what she's eaten, nappy changes and her sleep times.

We have been delighted with our daughters development which obviously Julie has played a very large part.

We particularly like the way that she mixes her days with groups in the mornings and the park or craft in the afternoons. It has been so reassuring to know that our daughter is safe and happy in Julie's care.

We would highly recommend Julie
