In my childcare role parents and I have maintained great relationships even when the children move onto school , I really enjoy hearing about how the children I have cared and nurtured move on and are happy in whatever they are up to , it's really important as once I was an influential small part of their growing up . I can honestly say i`ve been lucky to work and support families that need an alternative service such as mine and to assist with a parents childcare needs in a more personal family orientated way of getting to know people .
I recognize not everyone has the support of family members around them so i hope i can assist you in anyway possible .

I am flexible with my contracts and I am sure the service I provide caters for all parents childcare needs .

I have cared for children in my own home for over night and childcare during holidays as well as parents wishing to go on holiday without the children whereas I have taken children to and from school and Nursery and worked with there family members for this to work .
All childcare needs to be paid in advance in order that payments flow with no arrears enabling me to continue a positive service .

I am a caring , responsible person, always putting children first and making sure they feel they can approach me . The children call me Auntie Mimi as it brings a more family friendly approach to the relationship and assist with settling a child and that your child has fun , feels safe when in my care .
Most of the children i have cared for stay with me for many years . My children have been excellent over the years in supported me in my work. I think they have gained by sharing me with child minded children '
My children always had a little playmate to play with , this has enabled them to share and be sociable around other children as well as adults .
