About Me

I am Gayani and I welcome you to Twinkle Childminding. I am an Ofsted registered Childminder. I live with my husband who works as a Finance Manager and two little girls. My daughters are 11 and 7 years old and both of them are attending Bandon Hill (Meadow Field) Primary school. I have been working as an Accountant and decided to do a carrier change to become a childminder. From a young age, I always wanted to work with children and after having my own kids I decided to full fill my dream.
Being a full-time working mum, I understand what an emotional roller-coaster it can be to find the right person to look after your little ones. After completing the childminding training course with Sutton Council, I have a great understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage and help them to develop and grow into happy confident children, in a safe and caring environment.
We live in a lovely 3 bed semi-detached house in Wallington. We have an enclosed private garden and I have dedicated most of my Ground Floor for children’s use.
As a childminder, I am an Early Years Educator and therefore it is required by law to follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework to prepare your child for the next stage in their development. I ensure that children learn and develop well and are kept healthy and safe. In my setting, I provide a balance of child led (free play) and adult led activities. Plenty of toys are available to cover all areas of Learning and development.
