About Me

I am a Childminder of 25+ years experience, happily married for 40+ years, mum of 3 strapping lads, most of who have flown the nest and proud owner of a rescue greyhound. Our setting is child-led with a love of outdoors and nature. Our curriculum celebrates ready-steady- grow which focusses and supports the fundamentals of our learning and development intents. Children who have attended my setting are confident in both communication and PSED, they are recognised as 'school ready' by our local academy. We celebrate the Hygge fundamentals and 1000 hours outside . Good working knowledge of SEND and family support. Throughout each wonderful season we will go on outdoor adventures and learning opportunities including RSPB Old Moor, museums, farms, parks, woods , train/bus/tram journeys. The local environment has so many learning opportunities you will see evidence of this weekly through photos of our adventures and learning.

Good
18 February 2020
A nurturing environment fostering happy and settled children is at the heart of this childcare provision. Children form secure attachments and develop strong social skills in a relaxed atmosphere. They engage in varied learning experiences, developing good literacy, communication, and mathematical skills. Effective safeguarding measures ensure children's safety. Areas for improvement include providing more opportunities for children to explore their own ideas during free-flow play and consistently identifying ways to strengthen knowledge and skills.
