My Summary

Armley/ Leeds Quality Home-Based Childcare Supporting Every Child’s Development”

My Experience

I am an experienced and dedicated childminder who provides high-quality, home-based childcare in a safe, nurturing environment. I have experience caring for children of different ages and stages of development, including babies, toddlers, and young children. Through my practice, I have developed strong skills in supporting children’s learning and wellbeing in line with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS).

I plan and deliver a range of age-appropriate, play-based activities that promote children’s communication and language, personal, social and emotional development, and physical development. I regularly observe and assess children’s progress and use this information to plan next steps that meet their individual needs and interests.

I have experience in promoting positive behaviour, establishing consistent routines, and supporting children’s independence and confidence. I place a strong emphasis on safeguarding and welfare, ensuring that policies and procedures are followed at all times to keep children safe.
