My Childcare and Me

My daughter went to Jade’s for two years almost, finishing a month or so back so that she could start school. We had never dealt with childcare before and Jade made everything easy. Our daughter was always excited to go and always had a lovely time. Any issues were always communicated back to us appropriately and we felt that we could give feedback at any time too. Jade was always as flexible as possible, which was massively appreciated as two parents who work shifts.

Amazing she was able to accommodate all of my needs and things were always changing in my line of work, very understanding and passionate about the children, the home is very clean. My daughter never wanted to come home that was my only problem lol my daughter loved her time there and has always asked if she could return since. Amazing childminder!

Jade is very calm, loving and understanding of parents' anxieties about leaving their little ones, which is very much needed in my case as I was so anxious after what my poor first girl went through. She was happy to provide me with three references and when I called them, all gave glowing reviews of how much their children loved Jade. We are now five months in and I am so, so happy that we went with Jade. I wish I had done the same for my older girl.

I have viewed a few childminders before and none have felt right. When I met Jade she was very professional and my children took to her straight away! Having a child with additional needs I worry a lot and can be very over protective but I haven't felt like that at all. Jade is amazing with them and she took the time to get to know my son and understand his needs. She understands and gets him and he has formed a lovely bond with her. He takes a long time to settle into new settings but he never wants to come home when he is there so that was the biggest sign for me. Jade will always go out her way to change times where possible and her communication is amazing.

I am a mother of 3, that has used many childminders and nurseries over the years and Jade is the best childminder we have had!!! She is very caring, loving and attentive. Jade is very flexible and has always been there when we needed childcare at very short notice, overall extremely reliable and has a great 'can do' attitude. Jade is always happy to hear your thoughts on how the service can be improved and takes actions as and if required. Jade provides us with a daily diary for our daughter that is on full time care and this way we are constantly informed of her activities, what she eats, time of naps and change of nappies. Jade also takes the kids out regularly, which is very refreshing to see. I would be very happy to recommend Jade to anyone looking for a childminder, she is definitely the type of person I want to look after my children.

Our little boy has been going to Jade for the past 6 weeks and he loves it. When we collect him he always has a big smile on his face. Jade is great with the children, she gets them doing all kinds of activities which is really great and has even recently had a playroom created and changed her garden for the children. She is very patient and caring and really flexible which we very much appreciate. We also know that our little boy is being very well cared for as well as having a good time and being helped with his development. We cannot recommend Jade enough.

One of the best babysitters/nannies I’ve ever had 🙂 she was perfect in every way (like a Mary poppins) she treated my son like one of her own, she’s patient, kind, loving and understanding. My son has a disability which she didn’t have a problem with...I trust her 100% which my son....he loves her... Wish I never moved out of London because I would still be using her 🙁
