Julie

Fantastic Childminder!

Julie is caring, friendly and has always made sure our son was happy and settled every time we dropped him off. From the moment we met her, Julie put us at ease with her kind, trustworthy, professional manner. Our son really enjoyed his time and came home with lots to talk about. He is always happy and excited to be spending the time with Julie, as she always plans fun and educational activities for him to do. Julie has provided a very caring, supportive and fun home-from-home environment in which our son has thrived. Her communication has always been excellent, with both children and parents. We will certainly use her again and would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for top quality, reliable, caring childminding for their child.

Fantastic Childminder !

My daughter is with Julie for over 6 months now and she loves spending time with her. She is always eager to get inside Julie's house and there are no tears when I leave her. Julie is always very welcoming and positive at drop-offs and always gives me an update of how the day went at pick ups. She is very consistent with communication and lets me know of anything urgent through WhatsApp. I also get photos of my little one during the day which is lovely. Julie takes great care of my daughter and organises fun activities for her to take part in. She is very experienced and I can see that my daughter is gaining new skills when being with her. I would highly recommend Julie, she's fantastic!

Highly recommend

Julie cared for our daughter for a year and it was such a positive experience for both our daughter and us. From the moment we went for an initial visit my daughter was happy and I felt reassured, and our experience over the following year just confirmed that initial impression. Julie is a kind, caring, patient and fun person who clearly cares a lot about all of the children in her care. She never let us down, was flexible and understanding and put thought into our daughters development. Her experience in a school really shows. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Julie and we’ll be sorry not to see her as often now our daughter starts school.

Safe, Reliable & Excellent Childminding Service

I have nothing but praise on Julie’s services as childminder, she looked after both my children (a baby and a very active boy) and they always went to her happy and came home with big smiles, filled tummies, and new adventures to share with me about their day—my eldest is very good at communicating how his and his brother’s day went.

She is very flexible, understanding of parenthood concerns and with so much experience looking after children, that you leave her house feeling relieved to know your children are in a safe space, and will have a wonderful time with her.
She kept me updated during the day with pictures and messages about the boy's activities, making me feel part of their day.

My eldest is so comfortable with Julie that at times asks me to cancel his after school club and to spend the afternoon at Julie’s instead.
I will highly recommend her childminding services.

5 stars childminder

Julie was looking after our daughter Victoria for a few months and we were delighted with Julie. She is caring, friendly , approachable, flexible and most of all our daughter loves her. Every time I was taking our daughter to nursery school she wanted to go to Julie's instead. They were painting, drawing, decorating cakes together, going outdoors. All the things kids enjoy. I would highly recommend Julie, she is brilliant. Unfortunately we did relocate up north the country. Such a pity we couldn't take Julie with us.

Home from home care

Julie has been looking after my two girls (4yrs and 1yr) for 3 months now, and I have been delighted with how well they have both settled into the new routine of Julie collecting them from pre-school and nursery. I feel this is a real testament to Julie’s welcoming, attentive, caring, fun personality not to mention her wonderful child friendly setting. My 4year old loves her ‘Julie days’ and has made fabulous progress with her speech, social interactions and independent eating skills since starting with Julie. Julie’s 20 year experience working as a TA in a primary school and her experience working with SEN children was of great reassurance to me when selecting a childminder.
Julie cares for my girls as if they were her own and I trust her implicitly. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Julie as a childminder and look forward to my girls years to come in her care 😁
