About Me

Hello, I have been living in the Nailsea area since 2010 with my husband and two adult daughters, all CRB checked. Living in a quiet cul-de-sac in my home I have a dedicated playroom which is safe, welcoming, light and airy and full of educational and stimulating books, games and toys. Outside there is a large garden area for children to get lots of fresh air and enjoy toys, planting and growing fruit, vegetables and plants as well as opportunities for sensory activities.
I love messy play and arts and crafts and offer opportunities for socialising by visiting local toddler groups and days out.

My Experience

As well as being a mother I have been an experienced, Ofsted registered childminder since 2008. For my three Ofsted inspections, I've maintained a 'Good' grading.
I regularly attend local Quality Improvement meetings and training to keep up to date to keep up with any changes to the EYFS.

Good
10 November 2022
A warm and nurturing environment awaits children at this childcare setting, where individual needs are effectively planned for. Children enjoy positive relationships, behave well, and develop independence through a well-resourced indoor playroom. The childminder provides praise and encouragement, supporting children to become independent learners. However, the outdoor area lacks resources, limiting learning opportunities for some children. There is also room for improvement in supporting children's developing language skills.
