About Me

I have cared for children for a long time and have worked hard to establish my setting to be a homely, friendly, safe and above all fun for all the children I care for.
 
By offering space for moving around and playing, with many different opportunities to plan and stimulate all ages I feel I have a well run and enjoyable setting for all.

I live in a village called Barlby.  I find it a great village to live in as we are very close to the village school, within walking distance so is great for school pickups.  It has plenty outside, with a local green opposite my house, the local park very close, plenty of fields to play in, local woodland, local pond.  Overall it’s a great place for children to play and explore while getting loads of exercise.

My Experience

I have been childminding for 9 years and have a wealth of experience. This includes working with children from a wide range of ages. Overall I want to make your childs stay as much fun as possible so they enjoy their time here, while mixing this up to help their development.
 
I will always support children with special educational needs and disabilities and we can work together to give your child the right care.  I will aim to do this through working with you and your child, I will make resources available if the need is there.  I will also put in the time to research the SEN or disability if I am not aware of the needs relating to it.

I have excellent feedback from my parents which is available on request.
