My Requirements

My son Finley will be starting school this coming September. He currently attends Bright Horizons Pre-School but we will require a childminder Monday-Wednesday to drop-off/collect from The Lantern Primary School during term time and childcare on the same days during the school holidays.

Fingers crossed we are successful with Finley's application, if so, term starts on Thursday 3rd September. Ideally, I would like Finley to start going to a childminder from Monday 24th August to give him two weeks to settle in and get to know you and the other children you care for before you would do the first drop-off/collection with him to school from Monday 7th September.

We will require a 7.30am drop-off, where Finley can have his breakfast with you before starting school as I work in Cambridge. My husband Chris would collect Finley between 4.30pm-5pm, whichever time works best for you. He works in Ely and starts work at 7am.

Please can you confirm if you currently have availability and can accommodate the above request. If so, I would like to have the opportunity to meet with you to discuss the childcare provision you offer in a little more detail.

How many children do you currently care for and what is their age range?

When do you usually take holiday each year, is it the usual Easter, Summer & Christmas periods? Just worth me knowing as with my work, I currently work most school holiday periods.

Finally, please can you confirm where you live as Chris and Finley will be cycling home from yours when collected and just want to make sure its a reasonable distance from our house.
