About Me

My name is Vikki and I run Rocking Horse Childcare. I was registered with Ofsted in July 2015 to provide care for children of all ages. I aim to provide a 'Home from Home' setting, where children feel safe and secure to play and learn. I have 2 girls who love having 'friends' around to play. Activities are provided to interest the children and take into account their individual interests and needs.
I am able to provide babysitting in my own home.

My Experience

Before embarking on the childminding journey, I was a primary school teacher for 7 years. I taught a range of ages and stages of development. I have completed a BTEC National Diploma in Early Years, learning about child development as well as all other aspects of childcare.
I also studied for 3 years at Chichester University to gain a BA(Hons) in Childhood Studies, before completing the PGCE for teaching.
I have a vast range of experience working with a variety of children from birth into adulthood. I also have experience of working with children and young people with additional needs and completing a Level 3 qualification in SEN.
