My Summary
About Me
Accepting tax free childcare payments as well as government funding.
Hello my name is Shannon and I take great pride in how I care for children within the early years sector. I have always had a passion for helping babies/children to strive throughout their lives and learn to the best of their abilities. I have numerous years of experience, please find more details in the ‘my experience’ category of my profile.
I am a mother of two young children myself and therefore understand the importance of feeling that your children are cared for safely and to the highest of standards.
I am an ofsted registered childminder enabling me to care for children in my home allowing children to have a home to home experience. I have over 13years of experience in the early years sector. My home is fully risk assessed and allows children to explore through play safely and comfortably. I follow the EYFS curriculum enabling children to become ready for their next stages in life learning through play and experiences. I promote positive parent partnership as I believe relationships with parents are just as important as those with children. I am a 5 minute drive to Hampton train station.
I love to go out and allow the children in my care to socialise with other children at baby groups, soft play and craft classes. I have a car although we love to get on a bus and walk for the experience. Everyday is made fun. I treat all children equally and ensure that all individual needs and development stages are met.
I pride myself in my continuous interest of training and my cpd folder is updated regularly by completing a variety of courses.
There is a super friendly cocker spaniel in our household, her name is Daisy. She is not in constant contact with the children and if she is in contact it is always supervised as per my pet policy.
If you have any questions or would like to know more please do not hesitate to message.
Look forward to hearing from you,
Shannon

Shannon has been amazing with my little one from the very beginning. She’s been looking after my three-month-old and I couldn’t have asked for anyone more caring, gentle, and reassuring. Leaving such a tiny baby with someone else is never easy, but she made me feel completely comfortable and confident right away.
She takes the time to follow my baby’s routine, and always keeps me updated with regular photos and videos. I can tell my baby is happy and settled with her, and that peace of mind is priceless.
I feel really lucky to have found her and would happily recommend her to any parent looking for someone kind, trustworthy, and genuinely loving with children.

Shannon has often babysat for our 2 and 3 year old to allow us some free time! Her dedication to her role as an early years provider shines through. It is clear she has extensive knowledge and understands the needs of both of our children!
Our children are always happy/fast asleep when we get home and often speak about her and things they have done.
I couldn’t recommend her high enough!!!
Thank you for all you do for our family ❤️
