My Summary
About Me
I’m an Ofsted-registered childminder and qualified teacher, as well as a mum of two small children, based in Brackley. I offer a caring, play rich, and homely setting for children aged 1– here at Little Goose Childcare.
I’ve always loved caring for children and take pride in creating exciting, engaging play opportunities that nurture learning through fun.
I’m a bubbly, creative person who loves arts and crafts (a definite hit with the children!) I love helping children discover the magic of the outdoors, whether we’re splashing in puddles in our wellies or soaking up sunshine with a thick layer of sun cream!
My Experience
I am an Ofsted-registered childminder with a BA (Hons) in Primary Teacher Education from Oxford Brookes University, and a Level 3 qualification in Children's Care, Learning and Development.
I’ve worked across a range of settings, including as a primary school teacher, nursery nurse, pre-school assistant, and babysitter, supporting children from Nursery to Year 6. I now offer a nurturing, play-based approach to early years education and care from my home setting.
My Qualifications
I am a qualified primary school teacher. BA Primary Teacher Education.
I also hold a triple distinction in B-TEC Level 3 National Diploma in Children's Care, Learning and Development.
I feel my love of caring and supporting children is reflected in my education!

I currently have two (potentially three) part-time spaces available during term time only (38 weeks per year).
