Why are we called Jadela Juniors?
The name Jadela was made up by Dave in 1991 as an
acronym of the first letters of our family members James,
Ann, Dave, Elizabeth & Laura-Ann. At that time we named
our new home, here at 9 Peak Lane, Jadela House.
With us both electing to work together in 2008, as
childminders, we decided to call ourselves Jadela Juniors.
Whilst we remain individually registered, we decided to
use the name Jadela Juniors to describe our home
childcare.
The name Jadela is pronounced 'Jay Dell Ah' not 'Jade Lah'
