About Me

My name is Annette. I live in a quiet area of Hornchurch with my husband and our two little two dogs. We live within good proximity of Romford and Elm Park Stations.

I am a new childminder registered with Tiney Childminder Agency and Ofsted registered.

I have over 30yrs of experience of working with children and families providing and ensuring care, safety, health and education needs. I view the early years of a childs life to be of importance to lead towards healthy and happy independence as they grow older.

My aim is to continue to work in partnership with parents and carers and develop good working relationships.

I do have two well behaved little friendly dogs who love childrem however safety is of most importance. Both dogs have been pet risk assessed and as stated in my pet policy they are kept in their own areas via safety gates when children are in the home.

I provide a smoke free home setting to support children's health and to feel safe, happy and confident where they can learn through play and experiences.

My setting allows children outside play during all weather's as we have a covered garden. We are lucky to have Harrow Lodge Park playground within 5min walk, Eastbrook Nature Reserve and Elm park Library who provides group activities. We also have an allotment plot 10 min walk away where children will be supported to grow their own plants and flowers. This creates so many great learning opportunities.

There will also be occasional trips where children can experience bus and train trips which will be risk assessed and planned in advance. We also have an allotment plot where the children will be supported and encouraged to grow vegetables and flowers.

I aim to keep parents and carers updated daily. Parents can also view thier childrens progress and give feedback on the Tiney App.

Children in my care will receive healthy meals and snacks which are included in my fees.
