About Me

Hello parents/careers

Welcome to my page, I’m a childminding business under the name little ladybirds childminding.
I hope you find all the information you need but please if I’ve missed anything then do feel free to get in contact and I shall endeavour to answer all questions.



I am a childminder in the Tilehurst area of Reading and I am close to purley.
As someone who has been in childcare for over 20 years in a range of different settings from private Nursery being a Nanny to working in a preschool I feel I have huge range of experience that has helped me gain a lot of knowledge especially had lots of experience in the early years, this helps me to be the childminder the children deserve who really enjoy the job with lot’s of knowledge.

I like to have lots of fun with the children by making sure there is a stimulating environment for the children I care for.I do this a number ways from planning outings to places such as the park,woodland walks,soft play,farms etc. I also have lots of fun activities to help the children develop and learn at the same time while having fun and building those neural pathways with messy play, have lots of free play allowing children to make their own decisions and build independent skills. Having a range of toys for each stage of their development to build fine and gross motor skills, their language and social skills. I shall track each child’s progress and development and this will all be online where parents can view nappy changes,start and finish times,sleep schedule,online learning journal and photos.
I run my setting professionally, attending training opportunities, respecting confidentiality, keeping organised records in accordance with current guidelines.
I have clear policies and procedures, I am committed to providing a reliable service that parents can depend on.



I have two children of my own but who are now 10&11 years old and feel I can not only give a professional approach to my job but an understanding of what parents feel when leaving their precious children in childcare, which is why I pride myself on making bonds and relationships with the families I look after as it’s such an important relationship for all involved.




If you’ve any enquiries please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
