My Experience
With 16 years of childcare experience, including 3 years in management, I bring both extensive knowledge and a genuine passion for fostering nurturing, stimulating environments for children.
My career began in Montessori Nurseries, where I developed a strong understanding of child-led learning. In 2020, I was promoted to Assistant Manager at a busy Montessori setting, where I supported staff development and ensured the smooth running of daily operations. Alongside this, my background as a Family Support Worker has deepened my ability to connect with families, understand individual needs, and provide compassionate, tailored care.
I hold a strong knowledge of the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) and safeguarding requirements, ensuring that my practice consistently meets the highest standards of care and compliance. I take pride in creating spaces where children can thrive and parents can feel confident that their little ones are in safe, capable hands.
I would welcome the opportunity to bring my skills, experience, and dedication to your family, and to contribute to the positive impact to your little one’s learning journey.
My Qualifications
I am level 3 qualified, Designated Safeguarding Officer, completed childminding course with Buckinghamshire, Paediatric First Aid qualified and CPD knowledge of SEN alongside 9 years experience.
Food Hygiene level 2 qualified

From the minute we saw Ines’ profile, we knew she was the childminder for our daughter. After meeting Ines that was only solidified. Our daughter joined The Playroom when she was only 7 months old and had the most wonderful time in the setting. Ines is extremely knowledgeable on the EYFS and always made sure to keep us up to date on our daughter’s development. L absolutely loves Ines and we are so grateful to have found such a wonderful childminder and human being. Ines is genuine, honest and loves all the children in her setting as if they were her own. Thank you Ines for such an amazing service you provide! Any family would be lucky to have you on their child’s journey! x

Thank you so much Cay. Amazing family and L is an incredible child.
I stumbled across Innes on this website over a year ago. From the minute I met her and visited her wonderful home based setting I knew she was the one.
Her love, care and compassion combined with her knowledge of the EYFS ensures me that my child is in the safest of hands everday.
My son has attended The Playrolm for nearly a year, he trots through the door in the morning with so much as a look back, and when I collect him at the end of the day he is always happy and content.
Innes has clear routins, fair boundaries and provides a wide range of opportunities for the in her care.
We feel incredible lucky everyday that Innes is part of our family.

Thank you so much for choosing me to be part of the journey and getting to know your family.
We couldn't be happier with the care our child receives from the team at the Playroom. From day one, they have created a warm, welcoming, and safe environment that has always put us at ease. Our Daughter holds out her arms to whoever opens the door and is always happy when we collect her at the end of the day. The days seem full of great activities and plenty of outdoor play, which our Daughter loves! Ines and all the team are incredibly attentive and genuinely cares about each child's well-being and development. Their communication with us is fantastic, keeping us updated with regular photos and progress reports. We feel truly lucky to have found such a dedicated and nurturing childminder. Highly recommend to any parents seeking excellent care for their children!

Aww ☺️ thank you so much.
I'm so glad we found Ines last year. R is so happy here, with such a nurturing, safe and friendly environment. The play equipment is varied and fantastic. R has so many opportunities to explore her creativity, socialise with other children, and learn about the world. Hygiene is brilliant and so is food. When my oldest child was in nurseries, they were being sent home all the time with bugs and temperatures. Here, R has only had one absence because everything is so clean she almost never gets ill, so I'm not missing work all the time (win win for everyone)! I love how experienced and confident the team are, it's a world away from the nursery she was in. We put R with Ines for 1 day a week, but after a few months we were so happy we took her out of nursery for the other 4 days and now she only attends with Ines at The Playroom. There is nothing not to like. I wish we had found her when my oldest was tiny.

Thank you so much, I love have R, watching her grow and progress is my pure joy.
I viewed what felt like every childminder in and around Aylesbury then lo and behold we found Ines and her wonderful team, Vilma and Brittany. You don’t trust a lot of people with your child when they have a complex heart condition but I can honestly say that I trust Ines with mine. My daughter has come on leaps and bounds since she started. For example, with the help of the team she now eats so much better at meal times. I drop her off without any tears now and that alone lets me know that my little one is happy there. Thank you so much Ines, Vilma & Brittany. I would highly recommend the play room.

Thank you so much Chan, we love having her and watching her personality shine. Thank you for trusting us and that is my aim to ensure you as a parent is at ease knowing your child is being cared for accurately. My self and the girls are nurturing too great quality to have.
We tried nursery with our son when he was 12 months old and had a really awful experience so I was naturally wary of finding childcare again when he was 20 months. Ines immediately put me at ease, our son absolutely adores the environment she has created, it's the perfect balance between a childminder and a nursery. It took our son a while to settle but Ines has been so patient and most importantly honest with us about how he's finding it. It's felt like a team effort to help him settle rather than us worrying that he's not happy or we don't know how he feels. He now strolls in without a care in the world and sometimes doesn't want to go home! Ines and her assistants Brittany and Vilma are so wonderful, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Play Room to any parent looking for a home from home environment with the added bonus of so many learning opportunities from seasoned early years professionals.

Thank you so much Siobhan, it’s so good to see how happy he is now. Thank you for working with me and trusting the process, he has definitely settled now. X
My daughter is 3 and she loves coming to the Playroom. We have noticed she’s gained confidence playing around and with other children since coming here and she’s always very happy to go - I’m lucky if I even get a glance back when I drop her off! They do lots of activities daily and the environment is lovely. I highly recommend the Playroom, it’s the best decision we made for your daughter.
