About Me

Wendy’s little ducklings childcare .

I am a registered Childminder, living in Rainham Essex
I provide care for term time only . No non term time places .
Spaces available full time as of 2024 .
I will have a full time place in September 2024 but not until then this means available from Monday to Friday 5 days of the week .
I do also do school drop off and pick ups from stated school on my page .
I have 7 children of my own, all are grown up and are working, I also have grandchildren which I mind as well . I do own a dog English springer spaniel who is a family pet he does not get left with the children without my supervision.
He has his own sleeping area .
I own a cat which spends most of his time outside .
Also have a pet rabbit . All children are supervised around the pets .


I have many years of experience with children from all age ranges and can be fairly flexible with the needs of parents as well as children .

I do school drop off and after school pick ups from scargil school .

i am located right next to SCARGIL school and a short distance from
WHYBRIDGE school.


All children I care/cared for have settled in fairly quickly and seem to be comfortable around me. Parents have said it is because my home is warm and welcoming.


I do own a dog, which is a springer spaniel he’s very friendly, and I supervise at all times. My dog is a family pet. I do not leave him alone with children .
I keep parents updated with their children's development and daytime activities through

All home visits are available upon request.
