My Summary
About Me
I HAVE A PLACE AVAILABLE.
Hello, my name is Jayne and I decided to become a childminder when i had my own children.
I have been childminding for 15 years now and love it. I also realise how worrying it can be for you to leave your child for the first time, and I will try to make this transition for you as easy as possible, with settling in times to suit you.
I have a large home with plenty of space, it has secure gardens front and back, outside play equipment and a play house. There is a dedicated playroom for the children full of toys books, and equipment, large slide/climbing frame, all available for free play and quiet time whenever they want to use it.
I have a large kitchen where the children can do creative activities such as drawing, painting, play doh, gluing, jigsaws, hammer beads etc. Your child can learn and develop in a safe, secure, and fun environment.
We also go out on lots of trips where they can have new experiences and learn about the world. Play group, wacky, parks, and a farm where we picnic, the children get to see all sorts of animals and have a great day out.
I provide a fun loving environment for your child to feel safe and secure whilst in my care. As I spend a lot of time with other childminders, your child is able to spend time with their children, enhancing their social skills and making friends which builds their confidence for when they go to school.
I track their progress regularly along with the early years stages. This is all combined within their daily play activities with books and photos to keep you updated with their development and progress. I am graded GOOD with Ofsted and have a full paediatric first aid certificate.

Jayne/April 5 looked after my son, Dylan who always looked forward to his time there.
My daughter also spent time with Jayne who had never left my side before and she literally never even looked back walking into Jayne’s house.
One of the main things I look for in a childminder is someone who will look after my children as if they were their own and I feel that Jayne always does and is like an extended part of our family.
Her house is very well equipped and a safe space and my children enjoyed the activities they did with Jayne too.
I’d highly recommend April 5/Jayne and if we ever come back to the area we’ll certainly be in touch.

April 5 has been childminding my daughter almost 4 years since September 2016. She looks after her 5 days in the week.
I have been extremely happy with the care Natalia has received, and the great progress he has made whilst in April 5 care. April 5 home is always welcoming, clean and well organised and my child has great fun playing with the other children in her care. She provides a wide, fun range of activities including plenty of outdoor exercise.
I would absolutely recommend April 5 as a excellent and reliable childminder.

April 5 currently looks after my son and a fantastic job she does, she is very caring and makes it very easy to leave my child in her care. Right from day one April 5 has been accommodating to my shift work and always try's to help when it's needed. He has learnt a lot from her and really enjoys his activities that he does whilst there. The mums and tots group that he attends whilst in her care is fantastic and he gets so much enjoyment from attending. Could not recommend April 5 enough.
