My Experience
I am an Ofsted registered childminder with over 20 years of experience working with children. I hold a degree in Industrial Mathematics and began my career as a teacher, later becoming Headteacher at my family-run nursery and primary school.
As a mum and experienced educator, I combine professional knowledge with a warm, nurturing approach to childcare. I have also cared for friends’ and family members’ children and volunteered for six months at my children’s school to broaden my understanding of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).
I am passionate about helping children develop confidence, independence and a love for learning. My setting strongly supports school readiness, focusing on early literacy, numeracy, communication skills, and positive social development through play-based learning.
My academic background also allows me to support older children with Maths and English homework, helping them strengthen their understanding and confidence.
I currently volunteer in the children’s department at my local church, where I continue to support and nurture young children in a caring environment.
I offer a safe, stimulating, and high-quality home-from-home setting where every child is encouraged to thrive.

Thanks so much Silvia for your honest and kind review.
It was a pleasure having and caring for your beautiful daughter in our setting.
We have been incredibly fortunate to have such a wonderful childminder for Mabel over the past few years. She has cared for Mabel since she was just 1 year old, and the impact she has had on her development has been truly remarkable.
Mabel has grown into a confident, happy, and well-rounded child, and we consistently receive compliments on her development, behaviour, and social skills. This is a direct reflection of the care, attention, and dedication she receives every day.
What stands out most is the genuine love and support she shows not just to Mabel, but to our whole family. She has been incredibly supportive of all the girls, creating a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where they can thrive.
Her patience, consistency, and passion for what she does give me complete peace of mind as a parent. Knowing my child is in such capable and caring hands is invaluable.
I couldn’t recommend her highly enough to any parent looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and truly invested in the children she cares for.

Thanks so much for your kind review.
It's a great delight to care for my smart,intelligent and lively Mabel in our setting.
As a parent, I feel incredibly fortunate to have had my son in Tott kid for the past three years. From my experience, she provides an exceptional standard of care, combining professionalism with genuine love and dedication to every child she looks after.
My son is always happy, settled, and excited to go to her setting. In fact, it often speaks volumes that he does not want to leave at pick-up time. This reflects the warm, secure, and nurturing environment she consistently provides. She has built a strong, trusting relationship with him, and I have complete confidence in her care.
With over 20 years of experience, she clearly understands children’s needs and supports both their emotional wellbeing and development. She creates a well-balanced daily routine that includes play, learning, and quiet time. I particularly value how she encourages reading and ensures children complete their reading schoolwork or homework, helping to reinforce their learning in a supportive way.
Her setting is well-equipped with a wide variety of toys and resources, allowing children to explore, learn, and enjoy themselves. Activities are engaging and age-appropriate, and screen time is managed thoughtfully and fairly.
She goes above and beyond in her care, including providing meals such as lunch, dessert, and dinner, which is a great support for working parents. More importantly, she is attentive, patient, and deeply caring. She treats each child with kindness and respect, creating an environment where children feel safe, valued, and genuinely happy.
What stands out most to me is the level of trust she has built over the years. I have seen first-hand how families remain connected to her long after their children have grown, which reflects the lasting impact she has on both children and parents.
Overall, I would describe her provision as outstanding. As a parent, I have full peace of mind knowing my child is in her care. I would highly recommend her to any family looking for a reliable, experienced, and truly exceptional childminder.
