Ingrid
Childminder in Lichfield
My Summary
About Me
I have been a registered Childminder in the south of Lichfield for over 14 years. I live with my husband and our Labrador and have 4 adult children.
My OFSTED inspection is available on line, I achieved an outstanding grading.
I provide a safe, caring and happy environment for your children to develop, learn and have lots of fun.
I follow a flexible routine which can include days at home and days out and about. I meet with other Childminders and their minded children, attend local groups and activities in order for the children to socialise and interact with other little ones of their age.
Lots of outdoor activities - we have a local park and fairy woods, big garden at the front and rear of the house with a vegetable patch and more. Some of our activities include exploring nature centres and other lovely places..... the National Arboretum, Cannock Chase, Nature Centre and marina.
I follow the EYFS and keep a journal for each child, documenting their progression and adventures while here. They will take this when they leave as a keepsake. I will provide you with daily updates by WhatsApp.
I am a home based child carer and will treat all children as part of the family with care and respect. I’m looking for families who are happy to be part of a family setting and will treat myself and my family with the same respect.
