My Summary
About Me
Every child has the right to be happy valued listened to and allowed to express themselves through play. I aim to provide children with a safe, loving and welcoming environment where children are happy and can develop and grow through a wide range of fun, stimulating and exciting opportunities and experiences.
I plan a variety of different activities based on each child and their needs and interests whilst also covering at least one of the main learning areas of the early year’s foundation stage.
Children learn so much when they are in a safe and caring environment where they are stimulated through play. There are lots of toys available for free play and children feel comfortable to explore these for themselves, developing their independence. I also ensure that I build a strong bond with the children so they feel comfortable and confident to ask for anything they want or need.
At home we will do lots of fun activities like baking, music, painting, gardening, small world play, reading, role play etc. Children will always be encouraged and motivated to join in but never forced and will always be allowed to stop doing an activity if they’ve had enough. We will also go out and about on a lot of local trips to places like the park, wizz kids, local shops, playgroups, the library, the beach and local activities or festivals. Plus we will regularly go on big trips to places such as the zoo, the living coast and farms
I aim to make children feel loved, cared for and unique whilst providing them with opportunities to have fun and build happy memories in a homely setting that they enjoy coming to. A nice way to sum up what I believe and aim to provide is H.E.D.G.E.H.O.G.S

Please never hesitate to talk to me if you have any needs, worries or requirements. If you are open and honest with me we can work together to resolve any issues and ensure all your wishes are being met. I encourage all suggestions and any ideas, activities or celebrations you wish to share.
I will always endeavour to adapt to meet the needs of the children in my care and am happy to support you with helping your child to grow and develop. I hope we can work closely together to ensure you and your child are happy with the care I provide.
