About Me

Hi, I’m Eileen!
I live in Northwood with my husband and our three children. I’m a qualified primary school teacher and SENCo with over 10 years’ classroom experience – and now an Ofsted-registered childminder.

After a decade in schools, I wanted to bring together everything I love about teaching with a more personal, family-focused approach. Childminding gives me the chance to provide children with the same high-quality learning and care you’d expect in a classroom, but within a warm, home-from-home environment where every child is seen and celebrated as an individual.

My setting is rooted in outdoor play, hands-on learning, and the belief that fresh air and nature are essential for children’s wellbeing. We enjoy regular trips to local parks, woods, forest schools, libraries, and community groups, giving children the confidence, curiosity, and independence to explore the world around them.

With my background in education and special needs, I tailor learning and care to each child, helping them grow in confidence and reach their potential through play, exploration, and adventure.
