Julie has cared for my son since he was just 8.5 months old, 4 days a week, and has a fantastic bond with her. My son hasn't always been the easiest to deal with, but the communication is fantastic and we always work out the issues together!
His most favourite days with Julie are when they head out for the day or doing arts and crafts and baking which hes always proud to show me when I collect him.
A home from home! :-)
Overall
Julie is really down to Earth but also very caring. Her years of experience shines through and it's lovely that she works with her daughter as the children get to interact in bigger groups and learn from each other. My little one is developing so well and learning so much. She loves going in and playing with her friends. I can tell they've been busy and active as my little one is always knackered by the time she gets home.

thank you so much. x
Julie looked after our son from 5 months old until he was 34 months at Christmas. We would use her forever if we could but we moved location. My son, 2 months on, asks for her and misses her a lot, as do we. She always had my sons care at the top priority and I cannot think of anyone that would have been better to have my son and who I would have been more comfortable to leave him with. Thank you, Julie.
