About Me

My most recent inspection was July 2025 when I was graded Good. I am very caring and patient and registered as a childminder as I find the job very rewarding.

I work with assistants and have been providing before and after school care from Boringdon Primary School since 2007, my own children also attended the school. We do lots of craft activities with the children and have regular visits to the local park and garden centre. I take funding from 9 months and accept tax free childcare payments.

My son in quite shy and I was worried about him going to any childcare setting but Michelle is just amazing! My son felt very welcome and settled in literally on day one. He loves going and Michelle is so warming and accommodating for all the children that go there. Highly recommended.

Michelle, is warm, friendly and kind childminder. My daughter is always happy to go to her. If you are looking for a home from home environment where your child is loved and cherished - I would highly recommend. You get regular photo updates and can see all the activities the children are doing.
