My Experience

I have had experience as a childminder in seaham since 2003, during these years i have cared for a variety of different age groups ranging from birth onwards. All the children which i care for are classed as individuals and i like to work alongside parents to make sure the best possible care is given to each child, i pride myself with care for babies and young children , by making sure that they are safe and secure within and outside my home environment , and i strive to help each child develop to the best of their ability. I also take younger children to playgroups on a daily basis , which I feel helps children socialise and become independent within different settings .

I give children of all age groups the attention and care they deserve ,and I have a strong bond with each and everyone of them within my care.

Teri has minded all 3 of my children at various different stages of their lives (from 2017 to 2022). They have each developed a beautiful relationship with her and her family and thrived while in her care. Teri provides a nurturing environment with lots of opportunities for the little ones to learn and develop their key foundation stage skills. 100% recommend.

My daughter has been with Teri since she was 8 month old and has just left as she’s starting nursery. My daughter loves Teri and the rest of the family. My daughter has come on so much while she’s been with Teri and I know she’s in great hands. Teri is flexible and always goes out of her way to accommodate us. I couldn’t have asked for a better childminder and my daughter and I are genuinely gutted to be leaving Teri. Her family has become a part of ours and I know we’ll stay in touch xx

Thankyou , we are going to miss her much xx

Teri is the best childminder you could ever wish for. Leaving your child with someone other than family while your at work is such a big deal, but Teri just becomes a part of your child’s family from day 1. She isn’t simply a babysitter she does loads with all of the kids and our daughter came on so well in her time with her.
I honestly could not recommend Teri any more highly, we have complete trust in her and I suppose the proof is in the fact that our daughter absolutely loves her and the rest of her family as well.
If you choose Teri to look after your little ones you will not be disappointed
