Jonathan's Reviews

I wouldn't leave my son with anyone else.

I was referred to Liz by both family members and friends who had availed themselves of her childminding services and told me so many good things. All I can say having experienced her work myself as a parent, is that she is so much more than a childminder. Noah is our first child and she helped us transition him from a few days a week to full time when we both returned to work. She is such a warm person and so kind to our son and the other children she cares for. He loves going there and believe me when I say, I'm always interrupting the fun when I go back to pick him up at the end of the day.

If you want your child to spend their childcare journey in a warm family home with a nurturing person who sees each child as an individual, go with Liz. Above all else and most importantly, she is always so kind. I wouldn't leave Noah with anyone else.

Our Number 1

When you choose someone "in loco parentis" either for a few hours a day or all day for four of the five working days of the week as we have done, you want to know your children are being cared for in the same way as you would care for them yourself.

I can tell you with confidence that this is what you get with Liz Jones. She guides and nurtures our children so that each day they are spilling over with things to tell us, from the crafts and cooking in Liz's kitchen, to playing in the adventure garden or the paddling pool or mud kitchen! They even ask when they're going to see her next and talk about her at home. She treats them as if they are her own children, while making sure they know the boundaries that parents have asked her to implement. A real life Mary Poppins. Her house is orientated around the children, with a playroom overflowing with toys to a garden with a tree house slide and picnic trampoline area. Liz herself has a warmth that you can almost feel radiating from her and our kids love her for it.

I can recommend Liz wholeheartedly and without any reservations. Our kids are happy, warm, safe and developing their social skills with her. Above all else I never worry for a second that they are safe and being treated as I would treat them myself. There's nothing more you could want from a childminder.

Hi Jon,
Thank you so much for your lovely comments (and a little Latin lesson 😂). As you know I love having your kids and will miss Noah so much as he progresses through to school.
