About Me

I have been a registered childminder for more than 27 years with previous experience as a nanny and the experience of raising my own two boys.
My two sons are no longer living at home, one is happily married and has delighted me with two grandsons. My younger son, who is 29years old and left to explore our amazing country, left for Exeter Uni, then off to Bristol to work.
I live in North Tonbridge within walking distance of Woodlands School and Roseland's Playgroup. Almost on my doorstep!
We like to get out most days for at least a couple of hours, fresh air in our lungs and get those all important steps in !

My Experience

As previously mentioned I used to be a nanny and I have been registered as a childminder for over 27years, caring for numerous children of all ages, think last count I’ve had over 80 children pass through my setting.

I was graded 'Good' by Ofsted in 2023

I am a member of the NCMA and Tonbridge Childminders Association.

I am fully insured, CRB checked and attend several local children's groups.
