Myself and my daughter have known Julie for over 2 years now and we are over the moon that we found her, my daughter is very fond of Julie !
Julie is proactive, enthusiastic and ready for each day. Activites and days out are all planned ahead! she treats the children as if they were her own and nothing is ever a problem!
Julie also has two assistants who are also amazing and likewise my daughter is also very fond.
They are a fantastic friendly team with heaps of energy and adventures up their sleeves. My child runs straight in when I drop her off and is never ready to leave when I arrive! So I automatically knew she was in a safe hands. Julie and her team rock ! X

My 3 year old daughter has been coming to Julie since January. I was so worried as my daughter had a huge setback in childcare. Julie has brought out the best in my daughter in a short space of time, Julie has even brought out the best in me as the parent too as I had so much anxiety about sending my daughter. Julie makes my daughter feel loved, and offers so much to stimulate my daughter. My daughter comes home smiling and excited to return. Julies home is welcoming, homely and it's like my daughter has extended family. I don't have to contact all the time wondering how my daughter is, Julie always uploads so many pictures of my daughter having an amazing time. Julie has become more than a childminder to our family, she is a friend too and this relationship has built in such a short amount of time and will continue to grow. I literally have no words to express how grateful we are she has welcomed our daughter and giving her such an amazing experience so far. HIGHLY RECOMMEND Julie, she literally is amazing.

Julie is a fantastic childminder. Very patient, informative and always thinking of new things to do. I was worried with how Freddie would settle being a lockdown baby but he took to Julie and her family straight away. I honestly couldn’t ask for a better childminder.
