About Me

I am 61, married to Mark who I have been friends with since our 1st day at primary school, we have a son who works with his dad & a rugby player, a daughter who works at the local Montessori Nursery . Originally from Surrey, but have lived in Devon now for 25 years. We have a very pampered dog called Albie.

My Experience

I have been a childminder for 22 years & have cared for well over 90 children, I keep in contact with the parents as they have become friends, we have regular chats and they keep me updated on child's progression thru life, its so lovely to see them following their dreams. Most of my children start as babies, & remain until they feel they are too OLD for a childminder, but often pop in on their way home, which is so nice of them.
