About Me

I am passionate about children having a secure place to learn and grow. I have 3 children who are all adults now, the youngest has just started University (Oct 2015). We live in a nice big house with a detached playhouse. We have extensive gardens and live on a golf course with lots of public walkways to explore. I co mind with another qualified childminder who I have worked extensively with for over 10 years. She has a BTEC in early childhood studies and is mum to 2 children aged 8 and 10.

My Experience

I have worked for many years in special needs schools and mainstream schools supporting teaching staff to deliver quality teaching to children with Autism, Downs Syndrome and ADHD I have experience in signing, PECS, intensive interaction and other strategies to support children's communication.

My Qualifications

I have a level 3 qualification and a bumper folder full of other qualifications I have amassed throughout the years. This is available for inspection in the playhouse.

My Availability

I am available for full time, part time placement. I do not pick up or drop off at any schools as I find this is disruptive to the early years children. I work from 7.15am to 6.15pm weekdays only however, I am flexible and happy to discuss personalised attendance with you to suit your needs.
There are facilities for holiday club for all school holidays.

If you have a little one that you want to be occupied each day rather than sat in front of the TV, then I would highly recommend giving the littlehouse a try.....
Go for a look round and see what you think for yourself. Tracie and Michelle have great skills and are extremely talented when it comes to little ones with AEN. Their facilities are amazing and getting the place mucky isn't a problem because it is purpose built....All the more fun!!

Tracie and Michelle at Little House have been friendly and supportive of my child who feels happy when she is with them. My daughter enjoys the wide range of resources available and really enjoyed the 'Bear Hunt' activity, especially the chance to get muddy. We get daily feedback on what our daughter has been doing each day and there is also learners journeys which tell me how she is progressing. My daughter looks forward to seeing Tracie and Michelle every day and asks to go to see them on weekends....

This childcare facility had outstanding resources. The staff are eccellent and trained to the highest standsrd. They offer provision for children of pre school age who are on the autistic spectrum and may have communication issues. The children in their care recieve the very best chilcare and a wide range of experiences to aid their development and for the children to reach their full potential. Jighly recommend them.

I couldn't ask for a better place to send my daughter, the level of professionalism and dedication to the kids they look after is second to none. I was even told by my 2 year old "come back later daddy", when I went to pick her up. There's no better review than that, although it was a little bit upsetting to be dismissed by my baby lol
