About Me

I have been childmimding for 25 years and was a classroom group leader in a private nursery before minding. I live within walking distance to Norwood junction and East croydon .
I offer a home from home experience and like to keep in close contact with parents to make sure their childs stay with me as settled as possible
I live with my husband (who is DBS checked ) and my rather lazy fluffy cat .
I ike to visit local toddler groups ,parks, and soft plays.
I use my garden all year round, and we have a play cabin full of many resources at the end of my garden.
I do drive so we can do trips further a feild (have car chairs for all ages)
