About Me

My name is Sidsel Wood and have currently been a childminder for 22 years. I have 3 children of my own, 2 of which have left home and my third one is moving to Australia. I live in a friendly, quiet neighborhood all of which surrounding facilities such as libraries, parks, play groups that I attend to with the children outside of my home. My home is a safe and family friendly place, including a play room that the children play in and do fun activities such as puzzles, games and educational learning. This gives the children the opportunities to learn as well as have fun within these settings. I also have a sproker spaniel dog, who is 6 years old, super friendly and very used to children.

My Experience

I have been an Ofsted registered childminder for 22 years. I have been brought up surrounded by a large family living in Norway so have always had the experience with kids since a young age. The last 3 children I childminded stayed with me for 6 years till they moved away to Scotland. I have been looking after children aging from 9 months to 10 years+ so have the proper experience in looking after and caring for all ages.

I am pediatric First Aid trained, Safeguarding trained, DBS checked and have a certificate in Food and Hygiene, as well as have a childcare insurance.

Outdoor adventures and imaginative activities characterize the daily experiences in this childcare setting. Children benefit from mornings spent exploring local woods and parks, developing their natural curiosity. The curriculum emphasizes communication skills, encouraging polite expression and confident speaking. Creative opportunities abound, with cooking, baking, and seasonal crafts. Safety education is integrated into outings, teaching road safety and appropriate behavior. While outdoor learning excels, there's room for improvement in educating families about online safety at home.
