Jacqueli's Reviews

Superb childminder - highly recommend!

Jacqueline has been looking after my daughter since she turned 3 and she is now almost 10. She absolutely loves the time she spends there and I have total piece of mind that my daughter is being very well looked after. Jacqueline puts so much effort into creating a range of activities and trips for the children that are fun and engaging - particularly during the school holidays. The children are regularly given the opportunity to make suggestions and influence the activities so they really feel they have a voice.
Before coming to Jacqueline my daughter was only looked after by myself or family in her home environment and she really struggled to cope with new situations. Finding suitable childcare was a big deal, I knew that a private nursery environment would not suit her and we were very lucky to find Jacqueline who lived in the same street. I was so worried before she started but from the first day Amy was so settled and happy - I couldn't believe it! Being in Jacqueline's care allowed her to gain social confidence and experience so many learning opportunities while having the support and attention she needed.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Jacqueline to anyone looking for a professional, reliable and nurturing childcare provider.

First class childminder - A++++ recommendation!

My 8 year old son has been going to Jacqueline for over 7 years now and my 6 year old daughter for 5 years. I have never had one day of worry dropping them off as have absolute confidence in the care and attention they will receive. When I hear about other childminders I feel very fortunate to have Jacqueline as she is constantly looking for ways to keep all her children, of all ages, interested and happy. The range of activities they do is really quite astounding - always something a little different and always fun. Without my children even realising it, they are also learning and developing all the time - topics such as stranger danger, road safety, fire safety etc - all of these crucial learnings are delivered in a way they can relate to and enjoy. Every season and all annual events are covered - for example at Christmas time there is A LOT of fun with the two mischievous elves and spring has seen them grow butterflies from caterpillars. The children are continually encouraged to make suggestions and get involved. Jacqueline also regularly attends training courses to keep her own skills and knowledge fully up-to-date. In summary, I cannot recommend Jacqueline any higher - children receive first class care in a safe, happy environment with their own self-development and wellbeing at the heart of it all.
