My Summary
Level 6 Qualified, Ofsted Registered Childminder In The Heart Of Bedford Town!
About Me
Hello, I'm an Ofsted Registered childminder offering a nurturing, curiosity-led environment where children are encouraged to explore, move, and learn at their own pace. My setting is rooted in child-led learning, with a strong emphasis on outdoor play, movement, and sensory-rich experiences. Located in Bedford, we're perfectly placed for adventures to local parks, libraries, children’s centres, and museums—turning everyday outings into meaningful learning opportunities.
I provide a calm, welcoming space that’s especially suited to children who may prefer a quieter, more predictable environment—while still promoting rich learning and development through play, creativity, and connection.
My Experience
With over seven years’ experience as a lecturer in Childcare & Education, I bring a deep understanding of early years development and a passion for inclusive practice.
I have extensive experience supporting children with SEND and tailor my approach to meet each child’s individual needs, interests, and rhythms. My goal is to create a safe, joyful space where every child feels seen, supported, and inspired to grow.
As a parent of two myself, I deeply understand the importance of providing a safe, warm, and responsive space where children feel secure and valued. I aim to create the kind of environment I’d want for my own children—one that supports emotional wellbeing, encourages independence, and celebrates each child’s unique strengths.
My Qualifications
I hold a Level 6 qualification in Health and Social Care, giving me a strong foundation in child development, wellbeing, and inclusive practice. My Level 6 Certificate in Education reflects my experience as a lecturer and my ability to deliver high-quality, structured learning tailored to individual needs.
I’ve also completed a Level 2 qualification in Children and Young People's Workforce, supporting my hands-on understanding of early years care. I’m trained in Level 3 Safeguarding, ensuring I uphold the highest standards of child protection and safety in my setting. I hold a valid Paediatric First Aid certificate, so parents can feel confident that their child is in safe, capable hands.
To support healthy eating and safe food preparation, I’ve completed a Food Hygiene qualification, ensuring that all meals and snacks are prepared to the highest standards of cleanliness and care
My Availability
My opening hours are 7:30AM - 6PM, Monday to Friday. Whether you need childcare for an early start or a late finish, I'm available to support you with this.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We were recommended Honor by friends and family and honestly couldn’t be happier. My son beams with excitement going in each day, and I can’t believe how quickly he has adapted. Honor has such a nurturing, kind and gentle approach, and her professionalism and knowledge are unmatched.
She made the whole process easy and stress-free, sending us home with lots of really informative sheets and always answering any questions with ease. The daily updates and communication are fantastic, and the variety of activities she provides are wonderfully child-led.
I was so nervous at first, but now I feel completely at ease knowing he is in such safe, caring and loving hands. We are so grateful to have found her!
