About Me

My name is Stephanie. I live in Marston Moretaine with my Husband, 3 children (6, 5 and 20 months) and our pet rabbit.

I am friendly, approachable and reliable. I love to smile and laugh and get involved in play.

I absolutely love spending my time looking after children.

I am now fully registered and insured.

I live just by the Marston forest centre and so have plenty of opportunities to spend time outdoors learning as much as we can.

I have an understanding of the EYFS and will be following this to allow children to learn through play.

I have good knowledge of British Sign Language and teach children to use this also.

I have an annual ZSL Whipsnade zoo pass which I aim to use as much as possible with the children. Making regular trips.

I have a love for the outdoors and the space and learning opportunities it provides. spending a lot of time outdoors enjoying the sun and the rain. I have have a garden for children to play in should they wish and plenty of indoor space.

We attend local toddler groups such as Mini Marstons and Cha Cha chimps and often visit the local library.

.
I will attend local groups where other childminders or parents and children will attend to encourage children's social skills.
