Judith has been looking after my 3 year old since he was 10 months old and my 18 month old since he was 9 months. She has been very flexible in adapting to my changing work situations and childcare requirements, as well as doing preschool pick ups with my oldest.
My kids love going to Judith's and always seem to have so much fun. Judith clearly cares for the children that she looks after. She always has lovely activities planned to promote their learning and development and regularly takes them to soft play, parks etc. Her experience as a nurse also gives reassurance for anything medical.
Judith has a lovely purpose-built set-up with a large outside area that has a covered part for access throughout the year as well as a grassy area for the children to play.
We have been very happy with the care and professionalism Judith has provided.

My daughter has been going to Judith since she was 2. The first time I went to see the setting I loved everything about it, so homely but also so much for the children to do and and the variety. My son then started with Judith at 9 months and we have never looked back. My children absolutely love going and each day I pick them up are so excited to tell me what they have been up to. Judith and her team Sally and Lyndsey are so creative and no days are the same. So much thought goes into everything they do.
My daughter now is at school and in the holidays I have put her in different holiday activities but always wants to go back to Judith in the holidays
They accommodate to all needs and always so happy to see the children which is lovely to see and the Christmas parties they put on for adults and children are always a highlight not to mention the creative gifts Judith does for each child personalising each present for each child
I can’t really put into words how amazing Judith, Sally and Lynsey are and how happy I am that we have them in our children’s development
We are very lucky to have such a fantastic childminder setting and would highly recommend

Juju and her excellent team provide the perfect setting in which our son has been able to thrive. From crafts, to role play, to problem solving and exploring, the team have supported him and challenged him as he develops. Being born during Covid and spending his first year in lock-down, he arrived at Juju's as a shy 1 year-old. Her setting has helped him develop his confidence and with children of all ages has allowed him to play with both older and younger children. The team have also been very helpful with potty training and teaching them things like road safety. We love Juju's and would be lost without her, Lindsey and Sally!

It is difficult to fully justify in words how fantastic the care that Judith provides is. We have two children who she looks after. We have a toddler who is there three days a week and a five-year-old who is desperate to go back to be with Judith every school holiday (as she is now five and at school).
We have been with Judith for over four years and could not be happier with the setting she provides. Clearly in any care setting you would hope that your child is looked after, but this is on another level with Judith and her team. They treat our children like they are their own and provide excellent support that is tailored to each child.
When our daughter first started going there, she really struggled with separation anxiety, and it took her a while to settle. Judith was not only a great support to our daughter, and put fantastic plans in place to aid the settling in process, but she also helped us as parents to manage to change too.
Thanks to the care that was provided our daughter had no issues transitioning to nursery and school. In fact, she now thrives in these environments and much of this is down to the experiences that she had whilst with Judith.
Even during the lockdown period, Judith kept the contact with our daughter through videos that she would regularly send out and inspiration for activities we could do at home. This is just one example of the above and beyond passion that she has for childcare.
We love to receive the photos each evening of the activities that our children have been up to and seeing the fun that they have had. We know that they are well looked after including delicious meals and fun days out.
Our son is there now and is equally well settled and thoroughly enjoys going each day.
One of the great things about the care setting here is the number of children. It is small enough to be able to provide the personal level of care that we would want four our children, but big enough to also ensure our children develop their social skills with others.
We moved house just before lockdown and are now around 10 miles away, but it is worth the drive to bring the children to such an exceptional setting!

Our daughter has been going to Judith since she was 9 months old and we couldn’t be happier or more content knowing our daughter is so well looked after. I enjoy the daily updates, photos and detail of food eaten that Judith provides. Our daughter returns home every evening very happy and excited to tell us about her day and the wide range of creative activities she has participated in at Judith’s Wonderful home.
Her vocabulary and confidence have increased and developed massively thanks to Judith, Sally & Lindsay.
We very much appreciate the 5-star childcare service Judith and her team provides. Judith’s nursing background is also very reassuring and on many occasions, Judith has notified me that my daughter has an ear infection before I pick it up.
Couldn’t recommend enough!

My daughter started with Judith around her first birthday and has absolutely loved it since day one!
Judith is so creative and puts so much thought into making each day fun and exciting for the children.
Sending my daughter here is by far the best decision I ever made. The set up at Judith’s home is brilliant, just like a mini nursery! There are children of all different ages which has been great for my daughters development. Judith and her team are so caring and loving towards the children and I felt at ease leaving my daughter in their care from the first day. I now struggle to get her to come home!!
Thank you Judith, Sally and Lindsay for always taking the best care of Violette - She’s always running to get her shoes and coat in the morning in excitement for the day ahead with you all and as a mother I couldn’t ask for much more!

My son has been with Judith and her team for 2 years now. I cannot fault the service they provide and they always go above and beyond to help. My son absolutely loves going there and won't stop talking about all of the great activities and outings they do together. I previously had a bad experience with a different child minder and was so relieved that my son settled in well; and as a single mum it was great to discover that absolutely everything is included, down to his own personalised bag with his name on! Judith always provides daily updates on what they have done, how it has helped them learn and what they have eaten along with great photos as well.
My son has become a very intelligent, caring and confident young boy and I can say with confidence that a lot of this is down to the developmental opportunities provided by Judith and her team, and also the love and care they give them too. It definitely rubs off on the children because you can tell they all care about eachother as well! I only wish I lived closer so I could continue with wrap around care when he eventually goes to school!
Thank you Judith and all the team for being fabulous!!

Judith has been childminder for nearly 6 years looking after my two young children. We are so lucky to have her in our children’s lives. Judith has an excellent setup at home and a range of children of all ages which I find great for my kids social development. Judith goes above and beyond taking the children on day trips to local soft plays, farms etc, this is not something every childminder does. Her past experience as a nurse is also really reassuring. Can’t rate her highly enough!

My children have been looked after by Judith for five years now, and my only regret is not finding her sooner!
Without a doubt, Judith's best quality is the motherly nature she has with all the children she cares for - Judith's home and her own family are a home from home for my children, which is important when they have finished a long day at school.
My youngest has been with her since he was little over a year old and throughout those years she always had lots of fun agenda to keep the children busy and interested. She would always be as excited as we were about the milestones he achieved in his development and would always keep us updated with stories of what he had been up to during the day.
She makes the environment fun for all the children often arranging fun craft activities, making a big fuss over birthdays, holding a Christmas party (where the children put on a special production for the parents), organises fun activities during school holidays and even trips to the seaside. All the children in her care get on and respect one another and all love being with Judith.
Importantly, as a working Mum, she has been the best support I could hope for. Not only has she been flexible and helpful around unexpected situations at work, but she also she frequently reminds me of upcoming events when life has been a little to crazy to keep up!

Thankyou Paula, I can't imagine my days without them,
Our son Teddy has been under Judith’s care for the past 7 months. She looks after him 3 days a week. My husband and I are delighted with the caring, fun, secure environment Judith provides and the great progress Teddy has made in this time. He absolutely adores her.
Judith provides us with regular updates on how Teddy is doing. We often receive photographs of daily activities and 'art' work. Teddy’s development with Judith has been outstanding, his vocabulary, his confidence and his speech have come on leaps and bounds, we couldn’t be happier.
The facilities that Judith has at her house for children are close to that of a day nursery. There is a large dedicated playroom full of toys, a secure garden as well as a sheltered outdoor area, which is great when the weather isn't good. Judith regularly takes the children out to the park, to play groups to socialise with other children, and on outings, something which Teddy really enjoys.
Judith makes healthy food for the children and Teddy’s eating habits have improved greatly.
Judith has a lovely family who really do care about the children as much as she does. It is very much a home from home for Teddy. He has taken to Judith so much that he asks for her when he isn’t due to go.
We feel so lucky to have found Judith, she really is one in a million. She genuinely cares about the children she looks after and always keeps them entertained, happy and safe. We can’t recommend her enough.
