My Summary
About Me
My name is Sarah I am a registered and insured childminder.
I have been working as a registered childminder for 15 years now.I am a mother of two daughters Jessica 22 and Tilley-Mae 15
I have been a devoted Mother and over this period of time I have learnt a lot about children and there is nothing more rewarding than watching them grow and develop into confident, happy little people.
I believe that I can help children develop in the way I have helped my own children which already gives me a lot of satisfaction in my everyday life. I want to embrace this and help other children too.
My Services include, part time and full time. I always do alot of activities with the children, including visits to local places, parks, toddler groups and much more. I am a keen gardener, so your children will learn about plants and growing your own fruit and veg.I have an enclosed garden with play houses, toys etc.
I also do alot of arts and crafts and I have a wide range of toys for your children to play with. We always have a monthly theme.
I offer a home from home experience for your children, so they will be made to feel very comfortable here and will be made to feel right at home, experiencing all the benefits of the above and much, much more.
I have an assistant, her name is Jess and has been working with me for nearly a year now.
I am currently in process of taking on another assistant to have more hands on deck to give more children an even better experience. All necessary checks have been carried out for my assistants.
My Experience
I am a childminder, with 25 years experience under my belt now.

?Exciting News: Our New Purpose-Built Curiosity Space!
?We are absolutely thrilled to share a massive transformation here at our childminding setting! We have lovingly converted our garage into a fully dedicated, beautifully designed space inspired by The Curiosity Approach. This unique area is packed with authentic, touchable resources specifically chosen to ignite curiosity, spark imagination, and inspire little minds to explore. By incorporating this new area alongside our existing home setup, we can now offer distinct, tailored rooms that perfectly cater to different age groups and developmental stages. Best of all, it has allowed us to create a seamless, independent free-flow play environment, where children can safely and happily navigate from room to garden to room. It is an amazing expansion that truly brings our child-led learning philosophy to life!
