About Me

I am an Ofsted registered childminder and live in Warlingham with my husband Stuart, our 8 year old daughter Lily and our 5 and a half year old daughter Poppy. We live in a 4 bedroom semi detached house with a spacious garden.

We are a short distance away from local parks, leisure centre, farms, soft indoor play areas and playgroups which we spend a lot of time visiting. Previous to having my daughters I worked with children and teenagers as a mentor/youth worker with the local council. I ran various projects throughout schools in Surrey helping children breakdown barriers, challenges, that were preventing them from moving forward positively.
I provide a warm, safe and loving environment which I feel is key in helping a child develop emotionally, physically, socially and intellectually. I work with parents to meet the needs of the individual child and monitor their progress and follow the framework for the Early Years Foundation Stage. Whilst doing this, I am a firm believer in learning through positive play and daily we enjoy arts and crafts, cooking, fancy dress, games, puzzles and toys. Daily we attend many local playgroups, parks,nature walks and absolutely love godstone farm!

My Experience

I have always worked within a childcare setting, as stated above for six years previous to having my daughter I worked in many primary and secondary schools across Surrey through Croydon Council as a child mentor. This consisted of generally helping children with transition from primary to secondary but also meant dealing with various topics such as, challenging behaviour, non attenders, home issues, attainment and ability etc.
