My Summary
About Me
Network Childminder. Registered, Qualified, Accredited and part of PACEY's 'Children Come First' scheme. Work with children from birth to primary school leaving age. Previous work as coordinator/ accounts consultant. Career change due to home responsibilities. Since then, self employed childminder working from home. I love my job. Hobbies are philately, architecture and cooking. Also enjoy music and exploring nature. No pets. Non smoker. I like to think of myself as a simple human being, living a simple life.
My Experience
Previous experience in working with newborns, siblings, twins, children requiring speech therapy. Regularly attend Redbridge childminders' drop-in group in Orchard's Children Centre, the teddy bear club and various other local playgroups. Also take pride in enjoying local facilities, be it the young readers book club organised in the local library, feeding the ducks at Eagle Pond or simply a lovely stroll in our local parks with children playgrounds and outdoor play opportunities for little ones to enjoy. We do not mind going a bit afar to Connaught Waters, Hainault Wildlife Park amongst others. Morning breakfast and afternoon school club with school runs to Churchfields Infants and Juniors. Will consider other local schools and playgroups upon request depending on availability. Help with homework. Avid supporter of learning through play. Homely and friendly atmosphere. Activities tailored to suit the needs and preferences of each and every child. Great believer of children being their first educators through their own experiences of nature, play.....and a little help from us

Jay looked after our son for two years and we cannot speak highly enough of her. We found Jay to be a kind and loving carer who our son could not wait to see every morning. We saw our son develop in leaps and bounds and we have no doubt that Jay played an important role in this, from teaching him words, to painting, to letting him cook with her. Jay knew his moods and interests and catered to these most impressively. She spent untold hours walking him to see trains, to feed ducks and to run around at play group. Jay has a supportive family and our son slotted in to their mornings, and he loved to be part of their after school/work catchups where he was always welcomed. We are incredibly sad to leave Jay and are only doing so as we are moving out of the area. She has been so wonderful for our son, and we can only offer our highest recommendations of her to anyone considering child care in the area.

Jay is an outstanding childminder. We are very fortunate to be in our fourth year with Jay. Our DD has absolutely flourished under her care. Jay is very knowledgeable about child development and has a wealth of experience. I have so valued her advice along the way. Whilst our daughter was with Jay full time, Jay kept a detailed folder which she built up over the three years. This contained wonderful records of our DD’s development, art, photos and celebrations. It is marvellous and just one example of how Jay goes above and beyond. Jay’s home is incredibly safe, warm and welcoming, our DD loves the whole family. Another thing we have loved about Jay is her emphasis on home cooking and encouraging our daughter to enjoy being a part of food preparation. Additionally, Jay has been excellent at getting our DD outdoors, for a picnic in the park or to feed the ducks, to name a few. Jay establishes an excellent routine for children and this has been very important for our DD. There are so many great things to say about Jay, but to sum up, Jay is incredibly trustworthy, kind, safe and importantly she is someone who loves children. She takes their growth seriously, whilst still having a lovely sense of humour. I thoroughly recommend her.

Jay was the childminder of my son throughout all 7 years at Churchfields. I was very happy how he was looked after. Jay really has the best interest of the child at heart and has been a great help in my son's development.
And most importantly, my son was very happy staying at Jay's. It really was a home away from home for him.
Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a childminder.

Jay has been looking after two of my kids since 2013 on both full time basis as well as school runs. She is a caring, trustworthy and a highly qualified Childminder with a set up close to what you would have at home - home made meals and lots of playing/walking (indoor and outdoor). She puts her heart into the job and is passionate about kid's wellbeing. She ensures that each child is treated as an individual and uses approaches that work best for each. I highly recommended Jay for any type of childcare - wether for school runs or on a full time basis - you will know your child is in safe hands!

Jayshree looked after our son and daughter for 16 months, once a week, and we have nothing but praise for what she has done for us. We would highly recommend her; as my title suggests, we personally loved her calm manner. Most importantly, our kids loved her.
We had been told of her services by another parent at Salway, and were slightly nervous about leaving our 4-year old and 18 month old with anyone, as we had only left them with grandparents when we decided to use Jayshree.
By the end of the second week, both our kids loved going and would run in to Jayshree's happily reaching out to hug her. Flexible, relaxed and thoroughly professional, I would urge you to try her out if you're looking for a childminder.
Best of luck!
Alex and Vic.
