My Summary
Shavington Childminding: Home-From-Home Adventures With Jess
About Me
I live my husband and 3 young children in Shavington. I am passionate about both working with young people (including early years) and the great outdoors. I take pride in combining both these passions as a childminder both at home and local outings. I am a qualified teacher and embrace outdoor, sustainable living. I offer safe and engaging indoor and outdoor spaces, with fun and exciting themed sessions to support your little one's development.
My Experience
I have over 20 years experience working with a variety of ages, across a diverse range of settings including multiple outdoor environments. Whilst developing my core professional skills I worked in outdoor centres across the country and abroad in upstate New York and New Zealand's North Island. My career development has now led me to focus on Early Years development, where my knowledge of teaching and learning pedagogy, wealth of outdoor instructional experiences and lessons learnt as a mum of 3 (those that know, know), underpin my core childminding skills.
My Qualifications
I have a broad range of qualifications from outdoor specific such as bushcraft for forest school activities, to early years child development for individualising learning. I also hold first aid and safeguarding qualifications, including DBS, as well as being a qualified teacher with additional level 7 qualifications in education and mentoring.
My Availability
I can be flexible with availability and therefore happy to discuss your requirements. During the school week drop off times are before 8am or from 9am (to facilitate the school run).
