My Summary
About Me
Hi I’m jo and i am a ofsted registered childminder . My ofsted in 2019 I was award a rating of GOOD. I have over 20 years of experience of working with children in lots of different settings. I am trustworthy care driven childminder who provides a home from home for the children I care for. I have 5 children ranging from 24 to 4 yr old, 2 have flown the nest now .
During the week I get the children out and about everyday to the surrounding parks weather permitting . I attend lots of local playgroups and the local libraries for story time. I enjoy creative play with the kids, painting, modelling etc.
We try to cook at least once a week with the children normally, something they can eat for lunch .
During the holidays when there very little groups we do days out to the beach, national trust location or even boat trips. Also we have fun at the local outside water parks .
I believe in giving the children the freedom to use their amazing imaginations but also the tools to do great learning through play.
I do have a dog and she is great with the children also enjoying the games as well

Helped us in super short notice when others had let us down repeatedly. My son was off my lap and playing in under 60seconds and never realised i was gone. Very lovely environment and people. We are going again today!

Jo took care of our little one temporarily, for 10 days. We couldn't be happier and more grateful for her help during that time. Jo is a lovely person and childminder, helped our little 14-month boy integrate quickly in the new environment and feel welcome and happy. She provided us with regular feedbacks and updates, and arranged some lovely snow and Christmassy sensory activities, that our little one loved. She cooked delicious meals for our little one and made sure she gave him extras as well, as he has a big appetite! She definitely made us feel like our little one was with the best company and that this temporary change was as joyful as possible! Thank you, Jo!

My twins girls started to with Jojo when they were one and half years, for more than a year until we had to move town. They love Jojo and couldn't wait to see her in the mornings. They always came home happy and well looked after. From parents point of view, Jojo has been very flexible and accommodating with us and a great help anytime we needed her. She is reliable, fun, caring and full of love. Jo makes nice freshly food on daily basis and takes the kids out to beautiful places. We couldn't have asked for anyone better and will miss her.

Jo is energetic and always has great ideas to entertain the kids. They do a lot of craft, baking, gardening, she has a big garden for the kids to play outside.
My oldest started going part-time when she was 18 months old and she looked confident and happy to go every morning from day one. She liked it so much that quickly she was asking to go on days she wasn't scheduled.
Then my youngest started going too when she was 6 months old and she settled in very easily as well.
I was wondering how it would be with a childminder also looking after her own kids but I was pleased to see that there is no special treatment for anyone and her children are great kids who seem happy to have other kids around.
She is very flexible and always tries to make it work for us when we need to change days, need pick up/drop off or if we need to extend the session.
She is also very attentive to the kids' behaviours and change of mood to help deal with challenges and notices if they seem unwell.
We are moving overseas and we will greatly miss her.
