About Me

Hi!
my names Sarah and I am an OFSTED registered childminder who lives in Whitton.

I have been working in the childcare and child education sector for 11 years and have Early Years Education qualifications and training in Special Education Needs and Disability.

I live about 8 minutes walk from Whitton high street and local schools and have 3 children aged 19,15 and 12,

My aim is to always provide a fun and stimulating “home from home”environment so your child feels welcomed, happy and secure whilst in my care and I have an abundance of resources, toys and activities that support and encourage your child’s learning and development.

I have excellent knowledge of the EYFS and understand how to plan effectively to help your child grow, learn and develop through play.

I absolutely LOVE working with young children and families and I work in partnership with parents so I completely understand your child’s specific needs.
I can provide daily diaries and photos so you as a parent feel included in their day.

I ensure we take regular walks and use as much outside play as possible as it is so good for children’s overall health and well being and I plan excursions, swimming, soft play and playgroup visits to help your child socialise and interact with other children of a similar age.

I am happy to assist in potty training and can provide home cooked meals that are nutritious and delicious and I promote equality, diversity and inclusion and ensure everyone is treated with the utmost respect and tolerance.

I am registered as a provider of funded childcare and am also registered with tax free childcare.

Lastly, I have built strong and genuine bonds with so many children and their families and pride myself on the lasting friendships I have made over the last 10 years, I can provide references if requested from many of my nursery and minded families.

I look forward to hearing from you and thank you for taking the time to check out my profile.
Please free to message via the childcare.co.uk service website or email me if you have any questions as I am happy to offer flexible hours to suit your needs.
