About Me

Hi I’m Amy and I am newly registered childminder with Ofsted, fully DBS checked and paediatric first aid trained.

I currently live in a 3 storey new build house in Whitwood, Castleford with my dog Molly.
I have a large room which I have been able to transform into a playroom to provide a safe, warm and friendly setting for the children to enjoy and thrive in.
My focus is to provide a stimulating environment whilst following the EYFS framework, providing fun filled activities that also builds a child’s confidence and independence.
I offer childcare from birth onwards and provide drop offs/ pick up from Ackton pastures school.
