About Me

I have been a Ofsted Registered Childminder since 1992. The process of becoming a registered childminder is thorough and involves, police checks, health checks, training and inspections from Ofsted to ensure i meet the requirements.

As a registered childminder I can offer flexibility, "real life" experiences for your child, just as you would at home, and most importantly a childminder can provide continuity of care from babyhood through to teenage years.

My aim is to provide all children in my care with a clean, safe, comfortable, loving home from home environment where they can learn and develop through daily activities and play.

My Experience

I have 2 children of my own (now grown up), and 28 years experience as an Ofsted Registered Childminder.

Safeguarding/ Child protection
