My Summary
About Me
Welcome to Our Childminding Cabin!
We are a team of three passionate Ofsted-registered childminders working from a fully insulated, purpose-built cabin that’s bright, spacious, and designed for fun, learning, and creativity. Our large outdoor garden space allows for play and exploration in all weathers, giving children the freedom to enjoy nature all year round.
All adults living in the home are DBS checked, and I live with my partner and our 24-year-old daughter. Together, we’ve created a warm, family-style environment where every child feels safe, valued, and happy.
We follow the EYFS framework, supporting each child’s development through engaging, play-based learning. Our days are filled with a wide variety of activities, including:
• Messy and sensory play
• Arts and crafts
• Role play and imaginative games
• Outdoor play, nature walks, and trips to local parks
While we don’t provide meals, we do offer a variety of healthy snacks, along with water and juice throughout the day.
Our setting is all about creating a fun, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can learn, laugh, and thrive.
We love what we do — and we can’t wait to welcome your child into our little community!
My Experience
Between us, we have many years of experience caring for and supporting children of all ages. I have been a registered childminder for 23 years and have worked with children in various settings since leaving school. Helen has been registered for 14 years, and Amy for 3 years — together, we bring a wealth of knowledge, dedication, and enthusiasm to our childcare setting.
I hold a City & Guilds Level 2 qualification in Childcare, and Amy has completed a HBCA Level 3 course. We all hold current Paediatric First Aid certificates, refreshed every three years, and regularly attend training courses to keep our skills and knowledge up to date.
We have experience caring for children from 6 weeks to 12 years old, ensuring each child receives age-appropriate activities, attention, and support.
During the school holidays, we love to take the children on fun outings to local parks, farms, play centres, and ball pits. I drive a 7-seater car, giving us plenty of room for our adventures, and all of our vehicles are fully insured for business use. We also hold public liability insurance.
Our most recent Ofsted inspection (January 2023) was graded “Good”, reflecting the quality of care and learning we provide every day.
