About Me

My childminding services are open term-time only:

Please contact me to discuss your requirements.

I am OFSTED registered and live in the Marshalswick/Bernard's Heath area of St Albans (AL1 4SJ).

My main focus is to help children be happy, healthy and confident individuals. I have been childminding since 2009 and I believe that childminding provides children with the best of all worlds. Being cared for in a home from home environment but also with the added benefit of socialising with other children of various ages. We are like one big extended family. I enjoy watching and helping the children in my care grow and learn about the world around them. We have a lot of fun and enjoy a whole range of activities such as arts & crafts, stories, music & creative play as well as physical exercise and outdoor play.

I also have 2 children of my own, they are both in secondary school - they both love having other children in the house and look forward to seeing them.

My Experience
