Childminder in Hassocks
My Summary
About Me
I am a qualified Primary School Teacher, Ofsted registered childminder and mother of two based in West Sussex. I provide a warm, home-from-home childminding setting where children feel safe, happy, and valued.
With my teaching background and experience as a parent, I offer a nurturing environment that supports children's learning, development, and wellbeing through fun, engaging activities and play. I work closely with families to ensure every child receives the care and encouragement they need to thrive.
My setting is based in my house which has a secure garden and open plan living downstairs for the children to play. We make use of the local music/sensory groups, library, local farm and much more within the community.
My Experience
From being a teacher to a mother of two, I bring both professional expertise and personal experience to my setting. My teaching background has given me a strong understanding of children's learning, development, and individual needs (including SEND), while being a parent has helped me appreciate the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment.
I use my knowledge and experience to create engaging activities that promote children's confidence, curiosity, and development through play. I understand the trust parents place in their childcare provider and strive to offer a caring home-from-home setting where every child feels happy, secure, and encouraged to reach their full potential.
