My Summary
Childminder In Wattswood, Purfleet-On-Thames
About Me
Ofsted Registered Childminder with Level 3 in Designated Safeguarding Lead in wattswood, purfleet-on-thames.
Am a compassionate and experienced childcare practitioner. I had taught my kids that are now in full-time school, and I intend to render the same services to other children to prepare them for school
and future life.
A vibrant environment for
your child to learn, play, and develop in bright, colourful spaces filled with stimulating and inspiring toys and books and decorated with numbers, letters, and their creations.
Your child experiences the structure and routine of preschool as they play and achieve each developmental milestone as they progress and grow.
Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Framework ( birth to 5) is a good support tool I intend to use to support children to achieve their full potential. Children in my care will be provided with a rich and varied personal learning experience and fun activi
ties (outdoor and indoor ), water and sand play, frequent visits to purfleet, Aveley and Ockendon Family Hubs, sometimes twice a day where they can learn and have fun with other kids of their age.
I will encourage the children to extend their learning and development with fun, excitement, and enjoyment like climbing the ladder, sliding, swinging, running around in my garden, jumping on the trampoline, etc, to help develop a sense of curiosity, physical strength, risk taking and maturity.

I have previously worked in care homes and health sector.

Ruth was literally God sent for me, after my one year old daughter wasn’t doing well in nursery I had to switch to a childminder and I immediately saw a positive change and improvement in my child. Ruth made sure she was reaching all her development milestone such as physical and motor skills with active talking, physical and emotional support and regular activities in her home, in the children centre or library. I was a new mother dealing with postpartum depression and anxiety and my daughter was experiencing speech difficulties and couldn’t walk or take the stairs with confidence. However Ruth was invested in her development. She was very supportive and was constantly encouraging her to sing songs, recite nursery rhymes, read books together every day to expand vocabulary. She would also use frequent eye contact, talk about what she was doing, point to objects, name them clearly, and ask simple questions to encourage back-and-forth interaction. You should see the smile on my face each time my daughter sings the wheels on the bus and repeat the dance moves of the song. I don’t know what I would have done without Ruth. She is exceptional and truly care about children, like genuinely! And this is so important to know you are leaving your child in good hands and in a safe space. This is my honest review, she is gem! Thank you for everything Ruth and I would definitely still use her childcare services again and again.
