About Me

Hi, my name is Vicky and I am an ofsted registered childminder. I have recently been graded as outstanding in my Ofsted report (January 2020)..

I have been married for 17 years and we have two children aged 11 and 8 years old. We live in the St Johns area of Wakefield (WF1). This is only a five minute drive from motorways/Pinderfields Hospital and easy access to Wakefield town centre.

We live in a detached house. We have extended our kitchen specifically for childminding. This enables me to play with children, do activities and prepare meals all in the same room without leaving the children. We also have an enclosed outside garden with a mud kitchen, water wall and lots of other toys.

I accept childcare vouchers and I accept Early Years funding for 2, 3, and 4 year olds.

If you would like any more information please do not hesitate to contact me.

Outstanding
25 September 2025
Children thrive in a calm, respectful environment where learning and high standards of care are prioritised. The curriculum is ambitious, with daily outings and activities that develop mathematical knowledge, promote a love of reading, and foster independence. Physical skills are nurtured through well-planned activities. Behaviour management is highly effective, with children learning to wait, share, and take turns. Safeguarding arrangements are robust, putting children's interests first.
