Jeannie looks after my 2 year old and has been since she turned one. My daughter loves going and she always brings home wonderful and creative art work.

Jeannie has taught her so much - I am always amazed at what she comes out with. When I pointed to birds in the sky and said, "look at the birdies", she aptly corrected me by saying, "geese mummy". She was right! That was Jeannie's input, no doubt from their trips to the bird centre and general trips outdoors.

Jeannie teaches them all about different cultures and celebrations. Halloween, Christmas, Rabbie Burns, Chinese New Year to name a few.

The house is fantastic for kids of all ages - many many books and toys that Jeannie rotates to maintain interest and intrigue. The garden is also set up for playing in the water/sand or on the grass during summer.

Jeannie takes my daughter to the library and playgroup and often Musselburgh to feed the ducks.

I'm exceptionally pleased with Jeannie and her calming influence on my daughter. I'm hoping to send my other daughter to Jeannie next year when I return to work from mat leave.

Overall, I can't recommend Jeannie enough - definitely the best from all childminders I interviewed when starting my childcare search and I've never been disappointed with the service provided.
