About Me

Hello! We are Amelia and Richard Foster and we run Little Explorers Childminding. We live in the lovely, rural village of Welton, north of Lincoln and we are parents to 3 boys.

We provide a safe, fun and stimulating environment where children are treated like one of the family.

Amelia is a qualified former primary school teacher. Being a teacher gives her a wealth of knowledge and experience of working with children and she is passionate about Early Years education and providing children with a fun, engaging setting where they can explore and ignite their curiosity.

We live in a large detached house set in an acre of wooded gardens. We are currently working towards becoming a Hygge in the Early Years setting, and are also working towards our Curiosity Approach accreditation. We provide children with a wealth of interesting, real life authentic resources, lots of books, toys and activities for their own choosing, as well as attending local groups, classes and outings. We will provide the highest quality of care to all children of all ages and we aim for our setting to be like a home from home- cosy, friendly and very welcoming.
We are a 0 - 5 setting and not currently providing wraparound care.
