About Me

Hello, my name is Michelle and I am an experienced, Ofsted-registered childminder with over 21 years of working in childcare. I am passionate about providing a warm, nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and happy to learn and grow.
I live with my husband, our two daughters, and our two friendly cats, creating a welcoming, family-oriented setting that truly feels like a “home away from home.” I believe children thrive in a caring and relaxed environment where they can explore, play, and build confidence at their own pace.
My setting offers a wide range of fun activities, outings, and enriching experiences designed to support children’s development across all areas. From creative play and messy activities to outdoor adventures and local trips, every day is full of opportunities for learning through play.
I hold an NVQ Level 3 in Early Years and have up-to-date training in Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding, and Food Hygiene. I am committed to maintaining the highest standards of care and safety at all times.
I strongly believe in working in close partnership with parents to ensure each child’s individual needs are met. Open communication and collaboration are at the heart of my approach, helping to provide consistency and support for every child in my care. I also follow the EYFS
If you are looking for a reliable, experienced, and caring childminder who will treat your child like part of the family, I would love to hear from you.

Children benefit from a nurturing environment that promotes literacy, physical activity, and emotional development. Staff engage youngsters in book-based learning and outdoor play, supporting their communication and motor skills. The nursery effectively supports personal, social, and emotional growth, with staff discussing feelings with children. Safeguarding arrangements are effective. Areas for improvement include developing staff's understanding of children's development and giving children more time to think and respond to questions.

My son has been attending Michelle’s childminding services for over 2 years . He absolutely loves going to her house and playing there . He loves the days out she takes him on regularly each week, these consist of the farm, soft play, garden centres and local parks! He adores her family. It really is like home from home and I know when I drop him off he is safe and happy and very well looked after. Michelle is a super star! Michelle also keeps me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Xxxx

Michelle is a god send, my little girl has been going to her since she was 9 months old and made the whole experience of sorting out childcare so comfortable and made all of my anxiety dissappear. Compared to other childminders i spoke to Michelle has such warm and friendly nature and creates such a lovely environment for children to be in. Can see she truly loves her job and the children love being in her company, would highly recommend.
