Jenni's Help from the Heart

What a lovely day i've had today.

Set up 'Jen's salon' at my first clients house to give her a pamper. Then onto my next client who was celebrating a birthday. Then out for lunch with my last client of the day!

A lovely way to end a great week! I'm now taking a few days off to spend some quality time with my family. I'll be back to work next Thursday and look forward to seeing my clients then x

The very best of memories! 💕

4 years ago I became an award winner!

About a month ago, I received a letter to say I'd been nominated for an award at the Dudley Kindness Awards.

The awards ceremony was last night and I am ever so slightly overwhelmed to say that I was lucky enough to win an award.

Why I am I sharing this on my business page? Well, firstly, I am incredibly proud of my award and for being recognised as someone who has shown kindness in the community, but secondly, it was organising activities for the children/families in my road, during the first lockdown, that made me realise that helping people was so very, very important to me and that it was something I wanted to continue to do in my every day life.

It was during the most unprecedented of times that I decided that starting my own business to help and support my local community was absolutely the right thing to do for me.

Best decision I've ever made...and to be recognised for being 'neighbourly and kind' is just the icing on the cake!

Another lovely week with all of my clients.

I never take what I do for granted and I can't thank my customers enough for all the kindness they show me and for their flexibility when I need to change things around to fit in with family life.

Your support is ALWAYS appreciated x

Since I started my business 5 years ago, I have always operated a waiting list. As soon as a space becomes available, I assess everyone on their need and offer the available place to the person I feel is most in need.

I am fully booked at the moment, and have a waiting list of 4 people. In order to continue to offer the very best service I can to my existing clients and those waiting for my help, I have made the difficult decision to indefinitely close my waiting list.

Thank you to everyone for your continued support and for keeping me so happy and busy.

After a beautiful, relaxing week away with my family, I am fully rejuvenated and really looking forward to getting back to my clients this week.

After a very busy week it is now time for me to take some much needed time off with my family. This is a long overdue break and holiday and I can not wait!

I will answer any messages on my return to work on 18th August.

What a lovely few days away in London. First time at Wimbledon and it did not disappoint, and then an afternoon with some or my fellow CoppaFeel! volunteers at 'b**b camp'.

I've had a couple of clients on holiday too, so very much looking forward to getting back to work this week to see how everyone is.

Out of office on until Tuesday evening.

Thank you to all my clients who have allowed me to swap my hours to different days, so I can take a break.

Time to breathe, relax and reset...

See you all next week x

There has been a heat health alert issued for the next 4 days.

I am offering 15 minute 'wellbeing checks' to all of my clients tomorrow and Saturday between the hours of 12.30-2pm, to ensure they have a drink and are in good health. If you want a check, just message me and I'll slot you in.

Please check on anyone elderly or vulnerable during this heatwave and make sure they are hydrated and well...

Take care, and you know where I am if you need me.

Well, here's a post I never thought I'd be writing.

Coming soon to Jenni's Help from the heart...

My very first apprentice!!!!

Charlie will finish his exams in June, therefore will have lots of spare time over the Summer. He is desperate for a little part time job and to be earning his own money, but he's not 16 until August so no one will employ him until then. So isn't it a good thing that his Mum runs her own business and is VERY happy for him to come and work alongside her! 😉

If any of my clients or any followers of my page have any extra little jobs that they can't or don't want to do and think a very reliable, hardworking 15 year old could do them, please do let me know.

He will only ever work whilst I am with him and will be covered by my insurance.

All he wants is a little bit of pocket money to help him through the holidays.

It was tough. It was emotional. My legs didn't like me towards the end...but I did it!!

Thank you to all of my clients for their kind words and for their donations to such a worthy cause. Also, thank you to those clients who let me change my hours so that I could travel down to the South Downs. Your support is always appreciated.

Tomorrow, Charlie starts his GCSE exams 😬

As we embark on this journey as a family, I ask for your patience over the next 6 weeks. The whole point of me starting my first business 13 years ago, was to ensure I was always there for Charlie whenever he needed me. 13 years on, that hasn't changed.

With that in mind, and so that we can ensure he goes to each exam calm, confident and in the best frame of mind, either myself or Tony want to be with him before each exam. This may mean that I may need to get to my clients at a slightly different time to normal. I will give plenty of notice should this affect you.

For anyone else who has family taking exams, I hope the exam period goes well and it's kind to you and your loved one.

Thank you, as always, for your understanding.
