We couldn’t be happier with the care Jennifer and Maria provide for our son, Lennon. From the moment he started, it’s been clear how much they genuinely care about the children and create a nurturing, fun, and engaging environment. Lennon absolutely loves going there, and it’s such a relief as parents to know he’s in such capable hands.
Jennifer and Maria are incredibly creative—they always have exciting activities planned, from arts and crafts to imaginative play. They also take the children out on wonderful adventures, exploring nature and visiting local attractions.
The food they provide is another standout aspect. Everything is super healthy, well-balanced, and prepared with such care, which has really helped Lennon develop great eating habits.
We’re so grateful for the warmth and dedication Jennifer and Maria bring to their work. Lennon’s growth, happiness, and enthusiasm every day are a testament to the amazing environment they’ve created. We couldn’t recommend them more highly!
Jennifer and Maria are amazing - Our son has been with them for nearly 3 months and absolutely loves every day with them! They put us at ease from the first time we met them, the space for the kids is clean and spacious and has plenty of toys and activities to keep them busy.
We get frequent updates of the what's been going on through the day, what activities they've been up to, and how successful the meal times have been - always good so the food must be delicious too.
The communication with Jennifer is fantastic and overall we couldn't have asked to find better people to look after our son. Thank you guys!!
Our son started his journey with Jennifer and Maria in October 2024 and we couldn't be happier with our choice. We had just moved into the area and after changing our minds about a nursery that we had selected, Jennifer was so quick at accommodating our son, despite the urgency on his start date. She organised his tax free childcare on the same day, sent us all the contracts and documents we needed, and in a couple of days he was already under their care. Jennifer is incredibly professional, organised, communicative and transparent so that as a parent, you always feel clearly informed and confident that your child is in excellent hands.
As soon as we met her and Maria and entered their space, we instantly felt calm, relaxed and at home. The space is extremely clean, tidy and full of varied toys and activities for the children. Our son always looks happy in the space and stimulated by the choice of books and toys he can interact with. The kids also seem to have developed friendships and play happily together, which is really sweet to see.
Jennifer and Maria were born to be childminders. They are so sweet, loving and caring while also fun and active, making sure the children are always learning and intellectually stimulated, be it with daily outings in nature, playgrounds or play groups, arts and crafts activities at home or learning through reading, singing and educational games. They encourage good behaviour and emotional development through positive encouragement and deal with conflict between children in a very gentle and positive way too, which is testimony to their experience and professionalism.
I also always have time to sit for a bit with them all when I pick my son up, have a nice chat and get to know them both slowly, which is a joy, as they are such wonderful women.
The most important thing is for us parents to feel calm and happy knowing that our son is under great care and that he is spending his day with loving people who we know will take excellent care of him.
We couldn't recommend them more, they are just wonderful. Thank you both!
Our daughter has been going to Jennifer and Maria's for 3 days a week for over four months now and we honestly could not be happier with the care she's had. The setting is absolutely lovely. Jennifer has created a little nursery-like setting in her home, with lots of lovely toys, books and activities. All meals are fresh, home cooked, full of fruits and veggies and super varied. They take the children out on activities on most days, including playgrounds, parks, soft play, the library and loads more. They also do lots of fun activities at home. We get sent lots of pictures which always brightens our day and Jennifer keeps us up to date on meals/naps etc every day through an app. Communication has been extremely clear, thorough and professional throughout. Jennifer is really knowledgeable and it's clear that she has put so much love, energy and thought into Lullaby Lane. Most importantly, both Jennifer and Maria are incredibly loving and caring and seem to be having so much fun with the kids. Our daughter absolutely loves them and has formed a real attachment to them both (and all her little new friends!). She is always so excited to be going to Jennifer and Maria's and knowing she's happy, safe and cared for makes our lives so much easier. We feel like we're getting the professionalism and expertise of a nursery with the love, care and consistency that come with leaving a child with family. We can (and do!!) recommend Lullaby Lane to anyone!
Jennifer and Maria provide such a warm, nurturing, fun environment for little ones to thrive!
At 14months, it was my son's first experience of childcare and I'm so happy we found Jennifer instead of a nursery, it was the best place for him.
I loved that they went out each day to different local parks, playgroups, museums and soft plays, which you can view pictures via an app that details sleep, food, activities, nappies so you're in the loop.
My son learnt so much whilst in Jennifer's care and his daytime naps improved massively with Maria's massages.
Jennifer also provides the most nutritious food, my son really expanded his taste buds and I would even look on the app at what she cooked for inspiration for weekend meals.
I honestly can't recommend Jennifer's setting enough for happy and thriving little ones, THANK YOU!!
Jennifer has been brilliant for us, I could not recommend her highly enough.
She was the first person to look after our son other than us (his parents!). She is kind, caring and completely put our minds at ease with the transition, giving the right amount of updates - we knew our son was in good hands.
Jennifer does little trips to the library, park, paddling pools (in the heatwave!) to name a few. We can tell our son loves his time there as he smiles and waves when he gets to the door and is always beaming to see her. It’s so lovely to see.
We are pleased with Jennifer. Our son started attending when he was 8 months. And as a new mum, I was so nervous my baby starting childcare and Jennifer helped us a lot. She is very nice person, flexible and we loved the way she looked after our son. She organise playdates with other childminder, she takes them to the playground, and to the Rhyme times sessions every Tuesdays..
Every day is different and we love the way she keeps them entertained, she is caring and good communicator as every time she informs us very well in detail all related to our baby: Jennifer sends regular photos so we can see how his day is going.
She is very organised and very good chef as she prepares really nice home made food. Mateo loves fruits and veggies. He tried almost everything with her: pineapples, blueberries, mango, watermelon, pear, apple, kiwi and some many different yummy dishes always with veggies.
She has individual high chairs , space to sleep, eat and play, outdoor space and good opening hours. We don't regret our choice to choose her and we really going to miss her a lot❤️
I couldn’t recommend her enough. Thank you so much for looking after Mateo !
Our daughter loved being cared for by Jennifer and her team. She's created a lovely, caring environment and offers delicious looking and nutritious meals. We received regular updates through the day and Jennifer's communication and organisation is amazing. We would highly recommend Jennifer and are sad that the time has come for our daughter to move to nursery!
Jennifer and the team were so welcoming and accommodating for a first time mum. My child settled right in, no tears! It just feels like an extended family. Jennifer sends regular photos and updates, takes the children out to playgroups and organises activities. I always look forward to receiving photos from her. Thank you so much!
Jennifer is a true gem! She's not just a caregiver; she's a nurturing presence in our children's lives. Her patience, creativity, and reliability have made a world of difference. We trust her implicitly and are incredibly grateful for the love and support she provides our family. Highly recommended!
