About Me
Hello..my name is Carla from Little Learners Lingfield. I have worked in Early Years for over 10 years,in my most recent post,I managed an 'Outstanding' Preschool for 2 years. I work with my lovely assistant Kayley, who is a mum herself and has all necessary checks through DBS, ofsted registered as an assistant and fully pediatric 1st aid trained, along with safeguarding.
I believe in a positive nurturing environment looking at the child as a 'whole ' ,
enabling children to be confident,resilient ,happy children.
I am a mum of 3, so I understand that our little ones are so precious to us and finding someone to care for our children is a huge step and we just want them to be happy and well cared for.
I have installed a lovely playroom log cabin in our garden well equipped with its own facilities. We will be attending local playgroups, story time at the library, park and other fun things happening locally, to learn all about our community and practice those social skills.
Our household consists of myself and my partner and my son who is 11, eldest daughter who is 9 and my youngest who is 4.
We also have a lovely golden Labrador called Molly, who has grown up with my children.
Please feel free to get in touch
Kind regards,
Carla

As first time parents we were understandably nervous about getting childcare for our precious daughter. Carla has made us feel comfortable and safe right from the beginning. We get daily updates on the activities, food and behaviour of our little one and can trust and count on Carla to provide the best care to our daughter.
The set up is fantastic, a little mini nursery type set up with a big outdoor area which has been great.
We know that our daughter is in very safe hands which made the whole process so much easier and every day our daughter looks forward to seeing Carla which is the biggest compliment we can give.
We would not hesitate recommending Carla and everyone at Little Learners to anyone!
My boys have been with Carla for almost 9 months now. I was worried going back to work when my baby was just 3 months old, and Carla immediately put me at ease. She has been minding my baby and my toddler and doing a fantastic job. They both feel totally at home and love going to Carla’s everyday. She provides homemade healthy meals, a huge garden full of outdoor toys as well as the daily activities she plans for the kids. Carla has always been kind, warm hearted and I’m very thankful I found her.
Our little boy has been at Little Learners for nearly a year and has been absolutely soaring. Carla has been so kind and lovely, she made my Husband and I feel at ease and we could tell our boy is so well taken care of. He loves going to "Carla's house" and is always happy and clean at pick up.
Highly recommend the lovely setting incorporating plenty of outdoor and sensory play. My son has had the most wonderful summer. Carla does a wonderful job, is flexible, and catered so well for my little boy's many allergies and big appetite. We've been so happy with Little Learners and most importantly, our little boy has loved it so much.
