My Summary
About Me
Limited 2025 September availability left!! Enquire early to avoid disappointment!
Hi, I’m Gemma from Ofsted Registered ‘Darling Daisies Childcare’- a home-from-home childminding service in Thornton-Cleveleys. I offer childcare for little darlings ages between 0-3 years.
I am a Registered Nurse by background and took the leap in 2024 to care for little mindee’s at home.
Myself and my husband Liam have 2 beautiful sons. Our home offers a large playroom, a safe outdoor area, a large kitchen/diner and dedicated napping areas. All of our minded children are treated as part of our family and I aim for all of our minded children to feel at home when they attend. Our setting has also been graded Level 5 by the Food Standards Agency for food hygiene.
Government funding and tax free childcare schemes accepted.
Don't miss out on your 30 hours funded childcare from September 2025 for working parents :)
Please get in touch to discuss availability & arrange a look around and/or enrol your child.
My Experience
I have been childminding since 2024 and I have been a Registered Nurse for over 10 years and have looked after lots of families during ill health. I am also a mum to two beautiful boys.
