Registered Childminder Job in Surbiton
About Me
I am looking for a childminder locally for my Autistic son George, he is 7 years old. I am a working full time single mother and do not have a school placement for him in September. Due to the fact we transferred over the EHCP to Hampshire. I commute to work and work in Surbiton so I am looking for a temporary childminder to cover possibly 3-4 days a week, up until he has a school placement. Times between 7am-6pm.
He is a lovely child with the a very calm and loving attitude. Although autistic he does not have regular meltdowns and adapts to change well.

Andie was incredible with my son George who Is 7 years old and autistic. We were in a difficult time as George had no school place , while waiting for a specialist school.
Andie was absolutely amazing with George. From the start she made him feel safe, comfortable and completely at home, which means so much for a child with additional needs.
She went above and beyond in the way she worked with him, doing activities and supportive learning you would expect from specialist settings and schools. They did arts and crafts, sensory play, and lots of engaging activities that really helped build his confidence and happiness. Andie did learning with him and it was incredible how much progress he was making without a school.
George genuinely looked forward to spending time with her, and it was clear how patient, caring and understanding she was with him. She created such a calm and nurturing environment where he could truly be himself.
I honestly can’t recommend Andie enough — she has been a huge support to both George and me through a difficult time. He will happily go and spend time with her again in Holidays and I know he will be safe there.
