Reviews

Lily

“Josie is an amazing child minder. I have three young children and have been through a lot of childcare, but was so happy to find Josie, my children loved her. She is very approachable and natural at what she does. She takes care of each child's separate needs and tasks that need doing. Wouldn't let my children go anywhere else, it was a home from home with her. Thank you xX”

Bethany

“Our toddler was in Josie’s care at a previous childcare setting and instantly bonded with her, which is rare as he is usually cautious around new faces. Josie brings exciting energy and creative imagination to our son’s world. She is kind, empathetic and honest, the most important qualities when trusting someone with our child. I would highly recommend any parents to visit Josie if considering CM!”
