About Me

I have been childminding for 10 years and offer a home from home environment with my family, including my husband, daughter, son and dog!

I am a qualified Forest childcare provider and I live near to a local park which I regularly take the children too. I also take them on other outings to playgroups, walks in the woods, the beach, feeding the ducks, the library and to the farm.

I have a dedicated playroom for the children with plenty of stimulating toys and resources. This leads to a secure back garden which the children have daily access to. I also regularly do creative activities with the children, often surrounding a termly topic.

My Experience

I have previously worked as an early years teacher and more recently two days a week as a teaching assistant, so I have years of varied childcare experience. I have childminded children from aged 4 months to 12 years so understand the needs of children at all ages.

My Qualifications

Degree in Sociology
Early Years trained teacher
Diploma in home based childcare
Paediatric first aid certificate

5 February 2020
Children thrive in an atmosphere that promotes independence and outdoor learning. The warm and inviting environment supports effective language development and nurtures a love for books. Significant time is spent outside, engaging in physical activities and exploring nature. Children are encouraged to be highly independent and lead their own play. An area for improvement is allowing more time for children to explore chosen resources before introducing new ones.
