My Summary
About Me
My name is Ana, and I am an Ofsted-registered childminder living in Carshalton with my husband, stepson, and daughter. I have a genuine love for working with children and pride myself on providing a happy, fun, and nurturing environment where every child feels safe and valued.
In my setting, children enjoy a wide range of activities including messy play, role play, reading, arts and crafts, singing, and dancing. We also go out every day to local playgroups, soft play centres, rhyme time sessions, the library, nature walks, and nearby playgrounds. All activities are carefully planned to support children’s learning and development in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
I am caring, patient, and friendly, and I aim to offer a true home-from-home environment where children can grow in confidence, build independence, and develop at their own pace.
I live in a large semi-detached house with a spacious garden, conveniently located within 10 minutes’ walk of Carshalton Village, 12 minutes from Carshalton Station, and 15 minutes from Wallington.

I couldn't recommend Ana more highly! Both my son and daughter have flourished in her care. She provides amazing opportunities for learning and loves taking the children out and about — morning trips to the ecology centre, the local library, soft play, and Little Street are regular favourites.
Her home really is a home from home, filled with creative activities that keep the children engaged and inspired. Ana is also well connected with a great network of other childminders, so the children get to socialise and play with a wonderful range of other little ones too.
Ana cares deeply about every child in her care. She writes termly updates with clear targets linked to the Early Learning Goals, so you can really see how your child is progressing. She also provides nutritious meals and actively promotes independence, alongside sending daily photo updates and a log of meals, naps, and nappy changes, which is so reassuring and helpful as a parent.
In short, Ana offers a warm, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children thrive - I feel completely confident leaving my children with her and can't recommend her enough! She has become such an important part of our children's lives.
