About Me

I have absolutely loved working at the Nursery with the children and staff. This is what inspired me to set up my own childcare service. I also love spending time with my own children, Harry who is a Project Manager and Charlie my Daughter who studied Law at College. We love walking and having chats around the table at the end of the day!

We live in Dringhouses in a quiet private area that backs onto the cycle track and the racecourse, we have a beautiful enclosed park with play equipment within a few minutes’ walk from my house. I have an enclosed all weather garden. And a beautiful spacious setting which you can view on Asenby House Daycare, I also have off-road parking for 3 cars so drop off and Pick up is hassle-free.

My Fees

  • Childminding from £7.00 per hour

I charge £70 per full day and I have availability for 2 children on a Monday and one child for a Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday 8am - 6pm . My prices reflect a one to one care package. I do not offer holiday club or before and after school care. I offer the children a personal learning journey totally focused/tailored to meet their personal and educational needs/requirements. I believe that early years one to one interaction is crucial to a Childs development and well-being in order to offer the best start they can have in life. I take pre school children only from the age of 12 months +
