My Summary
About Me
My name is Alida, and I am a fully registered Ofsted childminder located in Ealing, West London.
I live at home with my delightful 26-year-old son, and a friendly Bengal cat called Blu.
What I will be offering to your precious child, is a nurturing, fun and educational environment, where children are treated with kindness, respect and encouragement. Just like part of our family.
Our home is a happy home. It is safe, clean and has a stimulating environment where children can feel welcomed, comfortable, supported and inspired to learn through play.
This is what I offer:
- A dedicated indoor room with age-appropriate arts and craft activities
- Fairy lighted reading corner, relaxing and cosy for story-time telling
- An ultimately secured garden for outdoor play, nature themed activities, and lots of messy play!
- A calming and soothing sleeping area for rest and relaxation
- Healthy snacks and drinks provided throughout the day
- A structured and well-planned daily routine to ensure children get the best out of learning, rest and play.
I follow the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework, ensuring your child meets key developmental milestones while having plenty of fun.
Activities we enjoy:
- Early Phonics (which is my speciality)
- Numbers and language games
- Creative arts and crafts
- Sensory play
- Story-time and music
- Outdoor play
- Celebrating Cultural event and Festivals
- Social skills development and free play.
My Experience
As a parent myself, and with 15 years of teaching experience working in schools, with the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) framework and other aged children, I understand how important it is for parents to feel confident that their child is happy, thriving and most of all in a safe setting.
It is paramount to work closely with families to ensure that each child's needs are met with care, patience and love.
I have experienced working in schools across various year groups, supporting children in their learning and development. My role has included delivering focused phonics to help build early reading skills, supporting comprehension activities to develop understanding and inference, and assisting with PSHE lessons to promote emotional literacy, wellbeing and positive relationships.
I take pride in creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment where every child can thrive.
