My Summary
About Me
my name is Sarah. I am married and have 2 children aged 21 and 18 years old. I live in a semi-detatched house,
I use my lounge for a playroom and also a separate area for artwork, playdoh, sticking and glueing, etc, in the kitchen. I have a large range of toys from birth to 6 years old ,many of which include educational toys to stimulate learning, picture and reading books, musical instruments, and al
. In addition, i have a large selection of board games and imagination and role-play equipment..
Outside is a secure and safe environment with lots of toys,activities, and equipment for children of all ages. Many early learning games for co ordination with their fine and gross motor skills.
I attend local playgroups. I feel that this is a must for children of all ages to interact with others to encourage their "social skills."
I provide regular out and about activities, and I drive a seven seater car, which enables children in my care to be transported to a wide variety of outings in safety. I have a Blackpool Zoo pass, which i renew yearly. All the children love spending their days with animals.
All the children in my care are provided with a nutritious fresh homemade meal daily. i have highchairs and a kitchen table that the children sit and have a meal together. I have lots of prams that are safe, clean, and warm for nap time. The older children either have a cushion on the floor and have quiet time or go in a pram.
I find my job very rewarding and enjoy watching children develop. I pride myself in a high standard of childminding and provide excellent service, and I am happy to fulfil any requests a parent requires individually for their child or children.
I believe every child is an individual and needs to be treated that way, I work close with all my parents and offer help and advice with any concerns they have with their children. Your child would be welcomed into my home as an extended member of my family, with a home from home environment, and treated with love and care as if they are my own. I offer a safe, secure, and friendly setting.
