Both of my sons went to Jeanette from being 6 weeks old right up until they stated school. She is a very kind and understanding person that has passed those traits onto my children. She taught them lots of academic qualities along with teaching them patience and good manners. Seeing them run up to her with a big cuddle every morning was very reassuring that my children were definitely being left in good hands. My oldest son is now 7 and still talks about Jeanette and even asks if he can go to her house to play. I would 100% recommend Jeanette to anybody looking for a childminder. Both of my boys love her like part of the family and I personally think that’s one of the most important aspects when looking for childcare, that your children feel safe and loved. As a working mum i found it hard to find time to do the arts and crafting, baking and playgroups but my children did all that with Jeanette so they didn't miss out. They absolutely loved playing in her huge garden and going to ‘jeanette’s park’ as they called it! (cliviger park). Even tho we have now left because of school I still ring Jeanette for advice about my children and she’s always happy to help. It’s hard being a new mum but Jeanette helped me with lots a little tips and advice that I still use today.

My daughter has been going to Jeanette since she was 9 months old and has had excellent childcare since day one. She enjoys her time there, has made great friendships and loves Net Net!
She has made great progress and Jeanette is always on the ball with her next steps of learning. If we are lucky enough to have any more children I hope Jeanette will have room for them too because I can’t think of anyone better.

Jeanette looked after my child for a few years until eventually they went to school.
She has became a highly valued part if our family, working to provide a safe fun engaging place where my child loved going.
Jeanette often stepped in when needed she was flexible adaptable when ever we needed at times at such short notice.
Jeanette is utmost the professional and even at times a confident and as the answer to lots of my parenting questions as well as the odd cooking recipe.
Jeanette always made home cooked food from scratch trying new food groups regularly.
I have always felt leaving my child with anybody would be so hard but seeing my child at the end of the day knew we had made the right decision.
My child made excellant progress and started their school life bursting with confidence and all the skills they needed.
Top marks.
Thankyou your our own Mary Poppins 💪

Jeanette began looking after my little boy at 12months old on my return to work. From day one I have felt at ease, getting regular updates and pics throughout the day.
I know my son is having the best days ever as she is constantly providing learning experiences to develop all his key areas.
There’s always a smell of home cooked food when you walk through the door. The atmosphere is warm, friendly and full of child friendly fun. Her play room is equipped with a variety of toys for all ages sure to capture any child’s imagination.
My son accesses playgroups, sensory rooms, the outdoors, play gyms and many more exciting things. I feel 100% at ease knowing he is in the safest hands.
Jeanette listens to my concerns, offers advice when needed and most of all always has my sons best interests at heart.
I would recommend Jeanette to anyone wanting the best childcare for their little ones!!

I first placed my daughter Lilly with Jeanette for her 15 free hours, then upped her hours when I went back to college. Lilly has come on in leaps and bounds since being placed with Jeanette, she started off quite shy and was not used to being away from me, after her first week she couldn't wait to go back and was asking when she was next going to see Jeanette! She was always happy to leave - and if I'm honest, a little sad to be coming home! With Jeanette's support and motivation her speech and writing improved fantastically, something that has continued throuought her care, Lilly started school just a week ago and on her second day was given a certificate for her fantastic writing. Jeanette was always flexible and accommodating and never let me or Lilly down. Lilly was an extremely fussy eater and it was difficult for me to pursuade her to try new foods, after some time with Jeannette she began trying all sorts, she came home asking for blueberries, grapes, pasta - all things she wouldnt have given a second glance with me. Jeanette always has the children up and busy, wether it's in the house doing arts and crafts or baking, or out at playgroups and running round the parks! All in all I highly recommend Jeanette, I couldn't have asked for a better childminder.

"I love Jeanette and she is my best friend" - quote from daughter when asked about Jeanette.
Emi went to Jeanette from the age of 8 months. From the first visit Jeanette was warm and welcoming and made Emi (and us) feel like part of the family.
Her care of Emi was brilliant. Emi made some brilliant friends too and Emi would run into Jeanette's every day. Never a tear.
Jeanette is so helpful and will go above and beyond, for example when running late to collect or in our situation when going into labour. Jeanette rushed over to help with Emi.
Emi, although no longer needing childcare, still sees Jeanette for play dates as she misses her.
Placing your child into the care of someone else is always hard, but throughout Emi's time with Jeanette we were confident that Emi was in safe hands and came home to us happy.

Thankyou for a wonderful review,was a pleasure and an honour to have EMI in my care,to watch her grow and develop into a lovely little girl she is. X
I placed my son with Jeanette since he was 8 months, he is now 3.
Loves going to Jeanette's and visiting his friends ... Always out and about at play group sessions making friends and developing his skills.
And his speech has come on amazingly..
Jeanette has been very accommodating towards Harry as he has an eye condition and as a result Jeanette turned one of her rooms into a sensory room with lights and smells it became a very calming place for H and I cannot thank her enough.
Never cries when dropping him off to go to work, he comes outside with Jeanette and they wave me off. When collecting him he hugs all his friends and Jeanette goodbye, always happy and playful.
Jeanette is very flexible .. When I've been late at short notice there was no extra charge ..
Harry looks forward to going and has even asked on a weekend if he can go and see his Jeanette and friends, bless him!
Very happy with the service provided. Jeanette's home is clean with a sizeable garden and a huge play room full of activities and toys.
