New starters settling in beautifully 💙💙 and new toy day is our fave (thanks Aldi)
H is very happy her brother has joined the family and showing him the ropes has by far been her fav moment! ❤️

We do love it when siblings become part of the family and it’s the biggest compliment for me 🤩
Not only entrusting me with the first born but the siblings mean I am absolutely doing something right! Thank you mummies 💙

Seeing children greet me and the door and shout ‘Jayne’ when I knock their doors make me so happy!

The weekend is here and Monday will soon be upon us and I couldn’t think of a better job than this.

Please please apply for this funding! It’s a great way to help afford childcare and I am a funded childcare setting so whether your child is already with me or you’re looking for childcare this is a great platform.

🌧️ Weather turning grey? Don’t worry… we’ve got it covered! ☁️

At Jolly Jesters, we’re always prepared for those days when the weather doesn’t quite go to plan! 🥰

We have a fantastic range of indoor resources, activities, games, crafts and lots of fun things to keep the children entertained, learning and having fun when we need to stay inside. 🎨🧩📚🎲

Here’s just a little sample of some of the resources we have available! 👀

Because at Jolly Jesters, rainy days are still fun days! 🌈💛

We welcomed Leo to our family and had a blast on his first day! 💙

So lucky to do what I love ❤️
