My Summary
About Me
Hello, I'm Sarah at Cotton-Tail Childcare. Mother to four children I have over 13 years of experience. I have a true love and passion for childcare wooden toys and loose parts.
I am fully DBS checked with my own car and driving licence, which is clear from any convictions or driving offences.
Our week consists of;
*Messy play *Cotswold wildlife park
*Rhyme time *Forest school
*Soft play *Roves farm
*Playgroups *Crocodiles of the world
*Picnics * Woodland walks
*Feeding the ducks *Library
These activities are heaps of fun and allow the children to play and make friends outside of my setting. We plan play-dates and outings with other childminders in the area, allowing the children to socialise on a wider scale. We are a fun-loving family who like to make the most of a day. This could be reading, painting, feeding animals, playing games, and going to the park... the list is endless
We have a separate playroom for the children to enjoy filled with open play shelves allowing the children to pick their own toys, role play kitchen for cooking up a storm, curiosity corner filled with trinkets for the children to explore without fear of breakages, play couch for building on a larger scale, tri climb for the thrill seakers, books for the book worms like me, small world for big imaginations and so much more, there's never a dull moment. I love all things wooden and open-ended and watching the children thrive in a child lead environment! The children have constant access to arts, crafts, and mark making tools. We utilize every space we have through messy play, role play, and creative thinking.
My Experience
