My Summary
About Me
Currently full – no vacancies at present
Hello! I’m a friendly, qualified childminder based in Chipping Sodbury. I recently moved here with my seven-year-old son, so I know how important it is to find childcare that feels comfortable, welcoming, and like a second home.
I offer a warm, homely setting where children can play, learn, explore, and enjoy lots of outdoor fun. I follow the EYFS framework to support each child’s development, but I also make sure their days are filled with joy, creativity, and plenty of opportunities to grow at their own pace.
My son goes to school in the Winterbourne area, so I’m also able to offer drop-offs and pick-ups around Winterbourne during school times.
If you’re looking for a warm, reliable childminder who truly loves their job, I’d be really happy to chat and answer any questions

I’d highly recommend using Charlene as a childminder. She was absolutely great with my daughter. Having only been with me before, I was surprised at how quickly she formed a bond with Charlene. She always came home talking about how great her day was and even now she has started school, she still refers to Charlene as her childminder and talks about her. Charlene is so friendly and always kept me up to date with what they were doing and sent pictures every day which was lovely to see how much fun my daughter was having.
Thank you Charlene, I’m very grateful x
