My Summary
Super Creative Learners Homebased Childcare
About Me
I have been a childminder for the past 2 years and before that a primary school teacher for the past 16 years, mainly based in the 'Early Years'. I believe that children learn best through play, where they have vast opportunities for creativity and access to outdoor learning. I am currently registered with Ofsted. I live at home with my three children (18 year old twin daughters and a 15 year old son), my husband and our very friendly spaniel called Tilly. My home offers a fully equipped playroom with construction area, book corner, role play corner, mark making area and creative area. I have a large garden that has a nature kitchen, discovery tables (sand, water and small world), digging area and outdoor construction area. I have vast experience teaching children with additional needs, including speech and language delay. The children in my care will learn through hands on experiences such as weekly cooking, gardening and creative activities. My home is full of love and laughter and is a fun place to be! I am also signed up to the governments 'Childcare Choices Tax - Free Childcare scheme' and accept childcare funding. My Ofsted inspection (May 23) was OUTSTANDING in all areas.
My Experience
I have worked as a primary school teacher for the past 16 years, mainly in Early Years. I have vast experience working with children with additional learning needs and have previously worked in a speech and language unit.

I have recently completed my CACHE level 3 and Paediatric First Aid.

My son, Hudson, has enjoyed going to Kelly's since day one. We have previously found it difficult to find a childminder Hudson wants to stay with and go back for another day but he thoroughly enjoyed the activities and felt at home with Kelly. I feel confident recommending Kelly as trustworthy and very friendly. Thank you for managing to entertain my always 'bored' little one.
