Ami
Childminder in Haywards Heath
My Summary
About Me
Childcare with Ami offers a warm, home-from-home environment where children can play, explore, and grow at their own pace. I provide high-quality childcare for children from birth to 5 years, following the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework through a mixture of child-led play, planned activities, and everyday learning opportunities.
Children enjoy a variety of experiences including creative activities, sensory play, messy play, outdoor exploration, local outings, story time, music, and opportunities to develop independence and confidence. I believe children learn best through play and aim to create a nurturing environment where every child feels safe, valued, and supported.
My setting offers low adult-to-child ratios, allowing me to build strong relationships with children and their families. Fresh drinking water, healthy snacks, and breakfast are provided, and I work closely with parents to support each child’s individual needs, interests, and development.
My Experience
I am a dedicated childminder with over 14 years of hands-on childcare experience through raising my own three children. My approach is warm, nurturing, and child-centred, providing children with a safe and stimulating environment where they can learn, play, and thrive.
I am passionate about supporting children’s development through play, outdoor experiences, creative activities, and everyday learning opportunities. I work closely with families to ensure each child feels valued, secure, and supported as they grow in confidence and independence.
I regularly undertake professional development and training to keep my knowledge and practice up to date, ensuring I provide high-quality childcare that meets current EYFS requirements and best practice guidance.
My Qualifications
My qualifications and training include a Level 2 Certificate in Introducing Caring for Children and Young People, Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding and Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) training, Food Hygiene, Safer Sleep training, and the Childminding UK Introductory Training Package. I regularly undertake professional development to keep my knowledge and practice up to date and ensure I provide high-quality childcare in line with current EYFS requirements and best practice guidance.
