My Summary
About Me
My name is Sabrina . I am a registered childminder.
My ofsted inspection was 5/3/19 and I was graded good . I believe in catering for each child individual needs as each child learns differently and at their own pace. I love planning stimulating activities while also allowing the children to chose their own activities. Even though I have a garden I love to the parks(crystal palace especially) where the children get to feed the ducks, see the animals in the farm all of this fun while they are learning. I believe in creating a fun , family based , stimulating environment where children will thrive.
My Experience
I have worked in child care for more then 12 years. I started off by babysitting then worked in a nursery. I also did volunteer work in Lewisham hospital on the child’s day care unit. I then worked in the appointments office for 3 years, after I left to pursue my dream of becoming a childminder.

My children have been with Sabrina for a few months now and I cannot fault her. She is absolutely amazing! Really wish I had found her sooner. Her attention to detail, knowledge and passion for what she does is evident. My children love her and have learned so much in such a short space of time. She has already got them speaking in Spanish! (You’re stuck with us for eh forceable future!!) Michaela

Communication
Crystals childminders is a fun, adaptive and homely environment. I interviewed her rigorously in the beginning and she was patient, willing to comply with the childcare.co.uk interview procedure without complaining or making me feel uncomfortable. Sabrina is a great listener, a hard worker, and is truly passionate about childcare. I have seen my child blossom during the time she has been with Crystals. What made Sabrina stand out to me was her clear love for creating innovative childcare activities. She always makes the effort to celebrate all the occasions within the year. She grows plants with them and introduces them to the several animals that she has and she has created several games to keep my little ones mind active during a pandemic like this. She buys caterpillars and grows them into butterflies with the children. These weird and wonderful things are gold for children's psychological development. People ask; why a childminder over a nursery? Sabrina sends me pictures almost every day of my child so I am always in the loop and feel connected to my child. She creates photo albums (so I don't have to!). But most of all, nothing can replace that one to one support that a child gets from a consistent care giver. Sabrina has built a very strong bond with my child. What makes me stay is the clear and indisputable happiness of my child. She doesn't cry when I drop her off, infact she often shuts the door in my face when I try and say goodbye!
