About Me

I have two now grown up children and a cockapoo named Nala she is very good with children. My husband and daughter help out when they are not working/at Uni they are both registered as my assistant, DBS checked and safeguarding trained, my husband also has full first aid like myself. We provide a warm homely service with learning through play and creativity. I have a dedicated playroom and well equipped garden, we go for nice country walks most days and have lots of outside play.

A welcoming childminder offers a well-planned curriculum that supports children's development and independence. The environment is happy and relaxed, with a strong focus on language skills. Children benefit from frequent opportunities to develop independence and engage in activities tailored to their interests. While indoor learning is strong, outdoor learning opportunities could be enhanced to provide more consistent experiences across all areas.
