My Summary
About Me
Hi there, My name is Laura, I live with my husband and two beautiful daughters and I have been a registered childminder with Ofsted since may 2018, please see current grading below. I live in Aylesbury not far from the town centre.
I work currently closely along side my Co-childminder Hannah Cole who has been registered with Ofsted since November 2013 . Hannah lives only a 2 min drive from me and we share resources and meet a lot at both settings, this allows us to provide cover care if one another is sick or on holiday ect .
As a setting I like to be out and about a lot to let the children explore different and new things, some of these outting may include,
Museums
Parks
Woodland walks
Soft plays
Music groups
Toddler groups
Farms
Zoos
And many more, when at home I encourage free play as well as planned activities with themes that follow the children's interests.
A bit about Me
Growing up in an environment with other children as my mum was a registered childminder in Harrow. I have always wanted to work with children. I went to college where I obtained a foundation qualification in childcare, I have gained further qualifications in Childcare and Education to a level 3. I aim to provide a safe, happy, stable environment for children to learn through play giving them the opportunity to learn new life skills to enable them to reach their full potential and become independent individuals.
This will be obtained by working closely with parents & other providers to provide the best support and care for the child.

We truly cannot thank Laura enough for everything she has done for our son, Leo, over the past two years. From the very first day, she welcomed him with open arms and created a safe, happy and caring environment where he could be himself. Every single day with Laura was busy, fun and full of new experiences — whether it was outings to exciting places, playgroups, or creative activities at home, she always made sure the children were engaged, learning and having fun.
What has meant the most to us as parents is the way Laura has supported Leo as an individual. He can sometimes be very challenging, and we believe he is on the autism spectrum. This hasn’t always been easy, but Laura has shown him endless patience, understanding and kindness. She adapted to his needs, gave him the space and support he required, and treated him with so much care and respect. Knowing that he was with someone who truly saw him, accepted him, and encouraged his strengths has been invaluable.
Over these two years, we’ve seen Leo grow, develop new skills, and become more confident — and we know so much of that is thanks to Laura. She has been such an important and positive part of his early years, and the impact she’s had on him will stay with him (and us) forever.
Laura isn’t just a childminder — she becomes such a special part of your child’s life and your family’s life. We feel so grateful that Leo had the chance to spend these important early years with her, and we would recommend her wholeheartedly to any parent looking for someone who will care for their child with genuine love, dedication and passion.
