About Me

Hello, my name is Roisin. I am a mum of two lovely girls, aged 11 and 8, who both attend school full-time. I’m married to Anthony, a serving Police Officer with the Metropolitan Police, and I also previously worked for the Met for 8 years.

I am an Ofsted-registered childminder with 6 years of experience, and I hold an NCFE CACHE Level 3 qualification in Home-Based Childcare. I’ve also completed training in Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding, Food Safety, and Autism Awareness.

My family will soon be relocating to Aldwick, West Sussex, and I’m excited to bring my childminding service to the area. I offer a warm and welcoming ‘Home from Home’ environment that embraces family values, consistent routines, with plenty of fun and enriching experiences.

Children in my care enjoy a spacious family room, a cozy living area, and a secure garden filled with engaging, educational toys. I love to explore the local surroundings, and regularly take children on outings to playgroups, soft play centres, and beautiful natural spaces. In Aldwick, I plan to continue this by making the most of nearby parks, beaches, and community events, ensuring children benefit from both indoor and outdoor learning experiences.

As part of my setting, I follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, supporting children’s development across all key areas—communication and language, physical development, personal, social and emotional development, literacy, mathematics, understanding the world, and expressive arts and design. I create a nurturing environment where every child can grow, learn, and thrive at their own pace.

I provide freshly cooked meals daily, tailored to meet any dietary, allergy-related, or religious needs.

I will be able to offer 30 hours for children from 9 months and 2 years and 3 / 4-year-olds, I am also registered to accept Tax-Free Childcare should you require childcare with immediate start.

My Experience

A recent inspection found that children thrive in a stimulating and welcoming environment at this childcare setting. Young learners feel safe and emotionally secure, with strong support provided for those with special educational needs. The curriculum follows children's interests and builds on their existing knowledge. While behavior management is generally good, there is room for improvement in explaining expectations to children and allowing more time for them to respond to questions. Overall, the setting prioritizes children's communication and language development, preparing them well for future learning stages.
