About Me

I am a fun loving Ofsted registered childminder rated good at my inspection.I offer a caring, loving and fun filled home from home service for your children as I know it can be daunting leaving your children for the first time and having the reassurance that you are leaving them somewhere safe and in caring hands.
I have looked after children for over 10 years and have seen them develop and grow into adorable children who I have had the pleasure to look after.
I have a child friendly garden and do lots of fun activities for all ages.We go out to parks,farms etc.
My house is always clean and tidy, ready for the children each day.

I honestly couldn’t recommend Amanda enough. My little boy has been with her for over two and a half years now, and she has been such an important part of his life. From the moment we first met her, I felt completely at ease — she’s warm, patient, kind and incredibly professional. Every morning when I drop him off, I know he’s in the best hands possible, and that peace of mind is priceless.

Amanda provides such a safe, caring and stimulating environment for the children. She’s so attentive and truly gets to know each child’s personality and needs. My son absolutely loves his days with her — he often asks for Amanda on his days off! It’s a real reflection of how happy and comfortable he feels in her care.

She plans the most wonderful activities, from arts and crafts and imaginative role play, to fun day trips and visits to the library. There’s always something creative and engaging going on. He comes home full of stories about what he’s done and proudly shows me everything he’s made. It’s amazing to see how much he’s learned and developed — from early motor skills to social confidence and all those little milestones that mean so much.

Amanda is also extremely professional and well organised. She keeps me updated about his progress and any little details about his day, which I really appreciate. Knowing she’s fully trained in first aid and experienced in childcare gives me complete peace of mind. It’s clear she takes her role very seriously, while still making every day fun and full of laughter for the children.

We feel so lucky to have found her. She’s not just our childminder — she’s become a special part of our family. I can’t thank her enough for all the love, care and support she’s given my son over the years. I would recommend Amanda to anyone looking for a childminder who genuinely goes above and beyond in every way.

Since being here with Amanda my son has thoroughly enjoyed spending his days plays and learning as well as making new friends. He has shown a lot of development and I’m really happy with his progress and how confident he has become. My son has made good friends, he brings home many items that’s he’s made and I am sent such lovely photos of him during his days
I am so pleased my son is enjoying his time with Amanda

We are really happy with our experience. Our son settled in really nicely and is super exited every morning to go in. Our son really enjoyed the trips to the park and going on a "bear hunt"! Would highly recommend.
