My Summary
Warm, Caring, Safe & Fun Childcare!
About Me
My name is Fiona Coleman-Kelly and I am an Ofsted Registered 'GOOD' Childminder living in Didsbury, Manchester. I have been childminding now for about 11 years, having previously worked in banking.
As a mother of three young boys myself, I fully understand the concerns of finding appropriate childcare. I am passionate about providing the very best care and the quality that I was looking for, in my boy's childcare provider.
My care is dependable, trustworthy, warm, caring and of a very high standard. I am very natural with children and have a strong rapport. I am very flexible, always fair and offer value for money. I have my own cars and am ideally located in East Didsbury, opposite Broad Oak Primary school. We have a fabulous location, around the corner from Fletcher Moss Park and gardens. We also have a large back garden filled with various flowers, shrubs and trees, ideal for outdoor play. The garden is full of a large selection of outdoor toys, for the children to enjoy. Including 4 x sand and water tables, swings, slide, trampoline, playhouse etc. We have a gorgeous grey cat called Storm, who is docile and loves children. As well as a mischievous cat Saber.. who is part Bengal. We also have 6 cuddly bunnies, including babies. They often roam free in our garden & are absolutely beautiful. The children love helping to tend, feed & cuddle them all. Finally, we have a super friendly, hamster called 'Anna'. As you can tell, we love animals as well as children.
I pick up from St Catherine's and Broad Oak primary schools.
