About Me

-Space available on Mondays

My name is Amanda, Mandy for short and I’m an Ofsted registered childminder with many years of experience working with children. I am currently open on Mondays and Thursdays all year around, and from September I will be open Monday, Tuesday and Thursdays. I have over 25 years of experience caring for children across a range of settings, including schools, preschools, forest schools, and nurseries.

I’m a kind, caring, and creative person who truly loves working with children of all ages. Creating a warm, nurturing environment where every child feels safe, valued, and encouraged is at the heart of everything I do.

I enjoy storytelling, playing games, getting creative with arts and crafts, and spending plenty of time outdoors exploring nature. I love following children’s interests, sharing in their excitement, and supporting their learning through play and discovery.

My Experience

I have many years of experience working with children of all ages. I’ve worked in a variety of roles, from nurseries, forest pre-schools, a previous childminder and nannying. I’m confident caring for multiple children at once, I always make sure each child feels seen, valued and cared for.

Above all, raising my two sons has been my proudest and most rewarding experience. It’s given me a deep understanding of the love, patience and encouragement every child needs to grow, and I bring that same warmth and dedication to every child in my care.

Mandy has been caring for our 1 year old daughter for several months now and we can't recommend her highly enough. She is lovely with our child, and makes a massive effort to provide high quality care for her. She is also lovely to spend time with and helpful around the house. She provided us with all the necessary paperwork before starting and some brilliant recommendations.

Mandy is fantastic. She is everything you could want for your child: loving, caring, kind... I can't recommend her enough.
