Childminder in Whitton (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
Twickenham Childminder | Ofsted ‘Good’ Rated | Home-From-Home Childcare
About Me
Hi, I’m an OFSTED registered childminder based in Whitton, Twickenham, recently inspected and rated GOOD by Ofsted (the second highest possible grading), reflecting a strong standard of care, safety, and early years development.
I provide a warm, safe, and nurturing home-from-home environment where children feel happy, secure, and confident to explore the world around them. My aim is to create a setting where every child feels valued, supported, and excited to learn each day.
My home offers a large, secure garden and a dedicated playroom/dining space, giving children plenty of room for both structured activities and free play. As a parent to two grown-up boys (aged 22 and 19), I bring years of hands-on experience alongside my professional childcare knowledge.
I offer loving, individualised care tailored to each child’s unique personality, needs, and stage of development. I follow the EYFS framework through regular observations and planned activities, supporting children in building confidence, independence, communication skills, and positive social interactions.
Each day is filled with a balance of fun, learning, and exploration. Activities include:
• Visits to local parks, libraries, and playgroups
• Arts and crafts, painting, and creative play
• Reading, storytelling, and early learning activities
• Cooking and hands-on experiences
• Outdoor play and nature-based learning
I strongly believe in working closely with parents to ensure continuity of care and to support each child’s development in the best possible way.
My goal is simple, to provide a safe, stimulating, and happy environment where children can thrive, build confidence, and truly enjoy their early years.
If you’re looking for a caring, reliable, and experienced childminder in Whitton who will support your child’s development while providing a happy and secure environment, I’d love to hear from you.

I waited a whole week for her to call me to clarify when we would meet and if my children would start with her. To me, her attitude is frivolous. I had asked another woman to hold so I could see Vicky, but I never picked up her call.

Good morning.. I am not sure why you have left this review as we had spoken on the phone and I was unable to do the day and weeks you were asking.. so I think this review is very unfair..
