My second maternity leave is rapidly approaching, which means my son will be leaving the care of his wonderful childminder from April/May. So she'll have availability for one child from around that time.
Our son's been going to Josephine since he was 6 months old (part time at first, and now full time). He's now approaching 2, and through all that time, I really couldn't have asked for anyone better to take care of him - she's just like having a member of your extended family. Josephine is fun, caring and clearly loves children. Our son has thrived with her. I suppose the highest recommendation I can give is that I've already booked number 2 in for next year!
Josephine is located close to Balham tube, and you can find out more about her here - http://www.*********/profile/Josephine-Kinnah. You're welcome to call her on 07774 744 790 if you're interested in the available place.
