My Summary
About Me
Hi, my name is Carolyn at Camellia Cottage Childcare, I live in North Hykeham, Lincoln with my partner Sirron and my 2 daughters Ellie 15 and Jasmine 12.
I previously ran a Childminding business from our home in Skellingthorpe for 3 years, after a change in circumstances and a couple of house moves we are now settled in Hykeham .
My Experience
I have 17 years experience working in childcare, from Senior Nursery Nurse in a Day Nursery to Managing Creche facilities in Children's Centers and also as Children's Project Manager in a homeless families shelter.......but being a Childminder has by far been the most rewarding and enjoyable of them all.
I love the fact that our daily routine is so flexible, there is so much freedom in our day to go out and have adventures, for this reason i have chosen not to take on school children as it really does cut into the routines of the little ones.
I am a firm believer that Children always learn best through play that relates to their current interests, I always work very closely with parents and encourage them to share their child's interests and achievements from home which will add to their own personal learning journeys.
To help with this I use a software which parents can log on to during the day to have a look at their Child's diary's and also to look at photos of what activities we have been getting up to! It's very important to me to build great relationships with all parents as communication really is the key to all children being happy and settled.
