We have been with Jean for the past year but started when she was working alongside another childminder. When she left to start her own childminding provision, we absolutely had to go with her as the relationship that had formed with my little girl was invaluable.

Jean has been the most attentive, caring, kind, patient cared but also knowledgeable and adaptable in her approach to childcare and we are so happy to have her in our little girl’s life. She has had such a positive impact on her growth and development as well as her general happiness and well-being.

My little girl has a rare genetic condition which was diagnosed during the time she has been under Jean’s care and I could not be more grateful for how Jean has adapted her care, inquired about how to best support her development and kept her so safe and happy each day.

Her food is home-cooked, fresh and healthy and my little girl eats very well there. She tries new things (that she wouldn’t even try at home) and seems to be consuming a healthy amount.

She is always happy on drop off and collection which has been a huge help in the transition for me as a parent too.

The activities that she does are so varied, creative and educational and she is exposed to so many different things that help her learning. As a teacher, I am incredibly cynical and critical and I have nothing but positive things to say about Jean’s care. I highly recommend her, we will be with her for as long as possible and I am already securing a place for any future children!
