Jane
Childminder in Yealmpton (also available for babysitting)
My Summary
About Me
I live in Yealmpton with my daughters 22 and 16. We have a very friendly dog, Boris.
We're a creative family with particular interests in art, craft & nature.
I enjoy being outdoors, walks, travel and spending time with friends.
My work ethos is to help children develop a strong sense of self, connection to the world and their surroundings . in today's busy society, there is less and less time to slow down, look up and notice what's around us. Children rush from school to numerous activities with little down time. It is my intention to help our young ones engage and connect with nature and each other and to learn slowly and steadily - cementing the foundations of development in an unhurried, non stressful environnent.
I run a gentle , nature based setting where children learn and gain confidence through play, walking in our beautiful village and open ended activities at their own pace.
I am currently studying towards the HYGGE accreditation .
