What we do

I provide a home from home based childcare setting.
I offer full time, part time, breakfast and after school care and wrap around care, if spaces allow I can also offer holiday care.
I have many years experience working with and caring for children and I provide a service which promotes children to explore play and learn in a way which they enjoy. All children and families are accepted regardless of ethnicity, religion, ability or disability. Everyone is welcomed at jollies as if you are one of the family.
I have both personal and professional experience of caring for children on the Autism Spectrum so I am able to tailor my care to suit their needs.
We love to be outdoors whether that's in local parks, the nature reserve or even our large back garden. Learning through play is important at jollies with all children of all ages included in a wide range of activities. PS, we love messy play and muddy puddles.

Who do we support

All families with children in the Blaenau Gwent and surrounding areas.
I am registered to provide care for parents using the Childcare for Wales offer.

I am in the process of registering to provide care through Flying Start and the Tax Free Childcare Scheme.
