My 3 yo has been with Jodie (and his mum, Janet) 4 days a week for most of this year so far. They are very professional, reliable and employ all the good practices you want to see in a childcare setting. My little one had some behavioural issues to start with, very natural for a toddler but I feel probably also aggrevated by the lockdowns... Within a few months she was completely turned around and is now an angel, very social and polite. All thanks to the loving environment and consequential training she has been exposed to at Jodie's!

They have a fab garden for outdoor fun, a dedicated play room inside, the whole setting is perfectly catered around children almost like a "mini nursery" but with the type of homely setting a lot of us mums want for our younger toddlers. They provide a healthy, balanced diet with plenty of fruit and home cooked meals and they have been very good at communicating with me about my little one's everydays. They have been great friends not just to my daugther but to me too!

I never felt nervous leaving my daughter with them, not even during the first few weeks, they are just so good with children, I trust them implicitly.

They accept 15/30 hours free but are affordable without it too, the location is also a plus, with a tesco just on the corner and very close to Essex Road station!

Much recommended, cannot fault them!
