My Summary
Childcare With Love
About Me
Hello and welcome to my profile. I am a dedicated childcare provider with over 14 years of professional experience. I’m committed to creating a caring, clean, and stimulating environment where children can learn, play, and grow. My home is equipped with a wide variety of indoor and outdoor toys and resources like an interactive toy kitchen with realistic sounds, a toy cash register, an easel for painting and drawing amongst other resources. I also have a wide collection of age related books for the children to read. I have a very large garden with play equipment for the children. There’s also a designated water and sand play area. Also there’s a large, well-maintained park conveniently located right next door.
I hold certifications in food hygiene, pediatric first aid, and safeguarding, and I maintain public liability insurance, among many other qualifications. I’m proud to offer fresh healthy, home cooked nutritious meals, snacks, and drinks for the children in my care. I am also aware of food allergies and don’t take that lightly. I take the children to designated “stay and play” (playgroup) sessions, providing opportunities to socialise and experience new surroundings.
I received a “Good” rating in my latest Ofsted inspection and currently hold a 5-star rating from the Food Standards Agency (FSA). I currently have vacancies for a baby and for children aged 2–5 I will update these vacancies as they change.
If there’s anything I have not mentioned, please don’t hesitate to ask
