My Summary
About Me
Hello!
My name is Steph and I run Little Bears Childminding from my home in Aldermaston where I live with my beautiful 9 year old daughter.
I offer a warm, fun & friendly home from home setting where the children learn and develop through play.
My Experience
**Ofsted Inspection taken place in July 2023 - graded GOOD**
January 2025: I have 1 space available on Tuesdays/Wednesdays/Thursdays/Fridays
March 2025: I will have 2 spaces available on Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/ Friday.
Little Bears Childminding is run from my home in Aldermaston. I have been a childminder since November 2015 and have experience with looking after children from Newborn to primary school age.
I generally operate my service between 7.30am and 5.00pm Monday to Friday, but I will consider extending this to accommodate slightly earlier and/or slightly later times by agreement.
I do not offer a service at weekends or public holidays and I am not registered for overnight care.
I can often offer some flexibility to parents who work irregular shift patterns and/or who only want ad hoc care, but this is dependent upon availability of spaces within the numbers allowed by my Registration.
I accept government funding.
Please feel free to contact me to discuss any aspect of my service and to see if I have any spaces available that meet your needs.
